Animals are family ❤️🐶🐱

Pet care experience

I grew up always having animals in my life. I’ve had as small as hamsters to as big as horses! I love all animals whether they have legs or not! A real happy life wouldn’t exist without animals! I currently have 9 cats, 2 dogs, 3 fish, and a snake of my own. I also foster kittens for the humane society! I currently work as a dog groomer for 8 years. Before that, I worked at a doggy daycare for two years. I have been working with animals for quite a while now and I wouldn’t change it for the world! I believe animals are just as important as people (if not more) lol. I will treat your animals like if they were my own! 🐶🐱❤️

Kristi was great! My dogs are fairly easy except when it comes to meals and medication. This is complicated and trying to keep all three straight can be frustrating but I meal prep and prep all their meds to help simplify for others. She handled meals and meds just fine! She kept their crate mats clean and the house was just as we left it. My dogs were very happy when we got home so I know they were well cared for. Thanks Kristi!!

Kristine did an excellent job pet sitting for our dog and cats in our home. We went away for a week over our children’s Spring Break, and it’s aways so hard to be away from our pets that long. She kept us updated with texts and pictures, and we came home to very happy and well taken care of animals, and our home was just as we left it. We would most definitely request Kristine’s pet/house sitting services again and highly recommend her!

Kristine was great with our pets. She kept us updated on how they were doing and put us at ease knowing they were in great care. I would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future!

Kristine is absolutely wonderful! I can not recommend her enough! She has watched our animals several times now, and I always know she will care for them as if they were her own. The first time we used Kristine, we had a senior dog with a very serious medical issue requiring a very intense medication schedule. Kristine was able to give him all of his medications and he did very well during her stay. I would recommend Kristine without hesitation to anyone needing pet care. I am always confident that my fur babies will be well taken care of when I leave them in her very capable hands.
