Information Kristy R. would like to know about your pet

I am open to any breeds, sizes, or temperaments. I am comfortable with them all and am very patient and understanding with them as I know change is hard on them.

A typical day

Go for long walks, play time with toys, or learning new tricks. And of course snuggle time is a must, if the pet permits it.

Kristy was amazing and very attentive to my senior cat Peter. He is diabetic and she took great care of his needs. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures to check in. I’m very grateful for everything she was able to do for us!!

Kristy helped our dog Willow and us feel comfortable about her overnight stay. We received updates and pictures letting us know that Willow was doing great and having fun. Kristy has wonderful experience in boarding all personalities and types of dogs. We will definitely use her again.
