Pet care experience

We have two cats that are hiding. . and a 3 y.o. Golden Retriever who loves to have friends over to play with! We love animals and we would like to get to know your fur baby! We have been doing Rover for 7 years now and we really enjoy it! Please check out my schedule to make sure it will work for you and your pup. ☺️ *I offer* -Pictures/updates at least every other evening if not more. *Meet &Greets -I will be happy to do a meet & greet with you upon request but if you are fine without one, I am too. (Please exhaust friends /family and check if the distance is a problem for you, before setting up a meet and greet. Serious inquiries only for meet and greets, thank you!) *What to bring* (Less is more!) - Collar and leash - Food (Label: Name & amount) - scoop for amount of food. -slow feeder if needed - medication if needed -kennel if needed (I have a few ask if one is available for your stay so you don't have to bring one) -cat litter *I will provide* -Bowls -Toys (I don't want yours to get lost or chewed up) Toy Donations welcome! -Mini Milk bone treats (if ok with you) -Kennels 2 sm/med 2 lg/xl *Please Don't Bring* -dog beds ( I have had them peed/chewed on in the past) -Bones- (they cause fights) Blessings, Kristy ✝️

Kristi is who my dogs know as VACATION! They literally wiggle and get excited when I say, “Do you want to go to Kristi’s?” They pull us to get to her front door. I have a 9.5yo pointer/boxer mix and less than 2yo lab. They are active and busy. My fur babies never miss us because they get their lovies and snuggles from Kristi’s kids and get all their zoomies and running and play with Kristi’s dog, Champ, and her other regulars also on “vacation.” I cannot say enough (and honestly don’t want to share to ensure she has room for my two), Kristi and her family are AH-MA-ZING!

Kristi and her family are the best! My dogs LOVE “vacationing” at their home. Lots of furry and human friends to play with.
