Information Kristy N. would like to know about your pet

Please address any special attention or needs the pet has beforehand, so I can prepare and be aware to make sure their needs are met!

A typical day

I am a calm and chill person, so your dogs will be in a peaceful environment. Morning meditation and yoga with the pets, morning walks, afternoon walks and as much play time as they need. It's more like what the dogs want to do for fun. Of course, food and treats!

Pet care experience

Hello hello. I am Kristy. Nice to meet you. Some humans are just more animal humans. Growing up with dogs and living on farms with many different animals, I'd say I have a pretty keen understanding of animal behaviors, how to care for them, and what to do in any emergency. Each dog is unique which I adapt to their personality and preferences. Whether it's playtime in the yard, cuddle sessions at home, or reinforcing good behavior. Creating a nurturing and safe environment for your pets is my priority.

Kristy does great things with my very nervous Nelly dogs. I can comfortably go and enjoy myself and know they’re in good hands.

Kristy was amazing! She did a wonderful job taking care of Vesper and my two cats. She followed all my instructions and arrived on time. Kristy frequently sent text messages and pictures of my pets, which I really appreciated. She was in constant communication with me. She stayed with my pets until I returned to the house. Thank you so much Kristy, we will definitely call on you again.
