It is hard for me trust the care of my home and my (3) rescued pups to anyone…especially to someone whom I had never met face to face…only via telephone. Kristine drove 2 ½ hrs.to sit my home and pups while I traveled out of state. Thankfully I have guest quarters and Kristine was gracious to arrive a day early as I requested, to get to know my pups and the lay of the land before I left early the following morning. I requested this because of bad experiences I’d had by other sitters whose behavior and neglect caused my pups high levels of separation anxiety. Upon her arrival, because of her peacefulness and her demeanor, my pups immediately took to her, and I could tell she would give them the love and affection and hugs and company they desire and the discipline they need…and that she would be very attentive and sensitive to their needs. As I requested, while I was away, Kristine texted me updates confirming all was well. Upon my arrival home, I found my pups very content and non-dramatic, happy of course to see me, but not needy or anxious due to neglect. This indicated to me she gave them lots of love and attention and affirmations. I have hired Kristine to once again house sit and pup sit later this year when I travel again. This makes even me have less travel anxiety and peace knowing she will be her to keep my pups safe and happy until I arrive home. George Hendrix
