I offer dog walking and drop in pet visits while you are away. I currently don't take animals into my home. I will make sure all the doors are locked as I enter and exit. I will let you know if anything is not right with your home like the heat is out or a water leak. If I notice something weird going on around your house I will let you know immediately. I can also water plants or do light landscaping when you are away. I can give you special rates for weeding, cutting grass or other light landscaping.
Information Kristy A. would like to know about your pet
Outside of the normal routine, is there anything that your pet doesn't like or are there certain noises that scare them? Are they escape artists? Are there any health issues I need to be aware of?
A typical day
With dog walks I like to keep the walk interesting, get good exercise and actively watch for any potential safety hazards. I like to carry treats as a reward if the owner says it's OK. With a drop in visits I can also do fetch, play with a favorite toy or give them a frozen kong, lick mat etc. I mostly leave it up to the owner. I answered yes to high energy dogs. I can give them good exercise through a brisk walk, mental activities, fetch, but I don't offer running or biking.

Pet care experience
Pets are part of the family and need physical, mental and physiological care. I put a lot of thought and attention into the animals I care for. When you are away, you want peace of mind knowing that your pet well taken care of. You want to know of their needs are being attended to. I don't just provide pet care tasks, I'm going to develop a relationship with your dog or cat so that they have fun, look forward to our time together.
Reviews
Kristy is the absolute best. Her summary of her walks with our dog and the photos we get are 10/10. I feel so comfortable knowing our dog is in good hands when Kristy comes over. They have their little ritual of stopping at a treat stand in our neighborhood. There have been a few times where we’ve needed her help last minute or to come back in the same day since our schedules changed, and she’s always so willing to help us out if she can! We love Kristy!
Kristy is wonderful! We feel confident leaving our dog in her loving and very responsible care! Kristy is a gem!
Kristy does a fantastic job with my two dogs. They both have very different personalities but both love Kristy. She brings great peace of mind for me when I’m gone for a week!!
Kristy is wonderful!
