Pet care experience
I love all the dogs!
Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud former dog mom to a sweet Corgi who lived an amazing 18 years — so I truly understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pup like family. Now that my own furry best friend has crossed the rainbow bridge, I’d love to give that same love and attention to your dog! My home is full of warmth, fun, and lots of affection, shared with my husband and our two dog-loving children (ages 8 and 10). I work from home, which means your pup will get plenty of potty breaks every 2-3 hours, attention, cuddles, and meals served on the schedule you prefer. We’ll enjoy neighborhood walks with lots of time to sniff, explore, and take in all the exciting smells along the way — because every good walk should include a little adventure! During the school year, weekday car rides are also available for pups when I pick up my children from school. Feel free to pack your dog’s favorite toys, blankets, and treats so they can settle in comfortably and have their own little vacation while you’re away! You’ll receive daily photo updates so you can see all the fun, cuddles, and adventures your pup is enjoying. I stay within the dogs I’m most comfortable and confident handling to provide safe, attentive care. Please share details about your dog’s size, temperament, energy level, and leash behavior when booking. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, energetic young dogs, adult dogs, and senior pups needing a little extra TLC. If your dog has mobility issues, I’m happy to carry them up and down the stairs when needed. To make sure every dog gets personalized care and a calm environment, I only host dogs from one family at a time. Your pup will be treated like part of our family from the moment they arrive. Thank you for considering me — I can’t wait to meet your furry family member!

Ratings and reviews
Kristy and her family accepted a last minute booking. She was so attentive to Aurora and sent many pictures and videos through my trip! I’m sure Aurora didn’t want to leave when I was there to pick her up! I felt very very comfortable knowing Aurora was in the best care. I will most certainly be rebooking with Kristy again and will recommend her to all family and friends in the future!
I highly recommend Kristy and her family! They watched my 4-year-old Beaglier for 4 days while I was away and did an incredible job. I received regular photo updates and awesome messages throughout the trip, which completely put my mind at ease. I came home to a relaxed, happy, and well-cared-for pup. I will absolutely be booking them again in the future!
Finding someone to care for your pet the way you do isn’t easy—but Kristy truly exceeded every expectation. From the start, it was clear she didn’t see my Jack Russell as just another client, but as part of her extended family. She took the time to understand Maggie’s personality, energy level, and quirks (and anyone who knows Jack Russells knows that’s no small task). Daily updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins gave me and my family complete peace of mind while away. It never felt like I was “checking in” on a service—it felt like I was hearing from a trusted friend who genuinely cared. What stood out most was the attention to detail and the level of affection she showed. Whether it was sticking to her routine, making sure she got plenty of playtime, or simply giving her the love and comfort she’s used to at home, she went above and beyond at every turn. I came back to a happy, relaxed terrier—which says everything! It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but that’s exactly what Kristy does. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust her again. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet like family, Kristy is it.

Schedule
I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends! Since I work from home full-time (and proudly embrace my homebody lifestyle 😊), your pup will have lots of companionship, supervision, potty breaks, and attention throughout the day. Weekends are cozy and relaxed around here too, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will always have someone nearby for cuddles, playtime, or walks!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My neighborhood is perfect for dog walks, with plenty of sidewalks for safe and enjoyable strolls! Inside the house, your pup will be treated like family and is welcome to roam freely and get comfortable wherever they’d like. Whether your dog prefers sleeping cozily in their crate or stretching out outside of it, I’m happy to follow their usual routine. I know every dog is unique, so if you have any special requests, preferences, or care instructions, I’ll do my very best to make your pup feel right at home!
A typical day
Your pup will enjoy plenty of potty breaks every 2–3 hours, along with meals served on the schedule you prefer to help them feel right at home. We’ll enjoy neighborhood walks with lots of time to sniff, explore, and take in all the exciting smells along the way — because every good walk should include a little adventure! You’ll receive daily photo updates so you can see all the fun, cuddles, and adventures your pup is enjoying while you’re away! Weekday car rides are also available for pups who enjoy cruising around town with the windows cracked and ears flapping in the breeze. Feel free to pack your dog’s favorite toys, blankets, and treats so they can settle in comfortably and have their own little vacation while you’re away!
