About Kristine A.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
It is my top priority to care for your pet in a way that they find comfortable and familiar. At the moment I do not offer care for pets at my home, but this means that your pet can stay in the comfort of their own home and routine. I take great pride in my work and will treat your pet and home as my own.
Information Kristine A. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of your pet's specific needs ahead of time. Does your pet have any dietary restrictions or allergies? Do you usually take your dog on a specific walking route? Will your cat try to dash out the door when it is opened? Etc.
A typical day
I always make sure that the pets I care for are kept comfortable and happy. A typical day in my care will depend on the individual animal's needs and routines. I will always include mental stimulation by playing with toys and games, and if applicable giving lots of time to sniff and explore on walks. If your dog is athletic I will walk at a brisk pace assuring that they are exercised well. I will monitor their behavior and try to alleviate their stress and anxiety as best I can.

Animal lover, former vet-tech
Pet care experience
I am an absolute animal lover. I graduated from The University of Massachusetts Amherst with a degree in Animal Science. My career has been primarily focused on caring for horses and other animals. One of my most exciting animal-related jobs was as Stable Director for Cavalia, a traveling horse performance. I was responsible for the care and well-being of the show's 100 horses. Following that job, I worked for years at Tufts University in their Large Animal hospital. This work was challenging and deeply fulfilling as every day I was part of a team that delivered care to animals in need. I am happy to offer basic medical treatment (under the advisement of your pet's medical professional). This might look like oral or eye medication, changing of a bandage etc. Over the years I have lived with and cared for an assortment of dogs, cats, and other cute creatures. I have strong problem-solving skills, am very responsible, and communicate well.

Kristine is amazing with our high-needs rescue pup. She is incredibly patient, kind, and understanding, and always meets him where he is. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with him. We couldn't recommend her more highly!
