Pet care experience

Working mom and dog lover 🐾

Hiya 👋 I am Kristyn and I love all things dogs! I currently have 2 of my own, Puck a 90lb hound mix and Hattie a 30lb pocket pittie who I love dearly. I spent a good chunk of my time volunteering at a local animal shelter in NY when I lived there and so I am well versed with working with all different dog personalities. I wound up adopting 2 from there, who have since passed, and had to work with them both on both stranger and dog issues. At my time at the shelter I did participate in dog training programs to help dogs get adopted and have used that within my own dog ownership with my own dogs. I went through the growing pains with my older boys so I am comfortable with seniors and have had plenty of time with puppies that I am also comfortable with them! When I first moved to NC I worked at an vet for about a year and a half as a kennel tech and vet assistant/helper. I was tasked with administering all meds to boarders and am more than comfortable doing so should your pup need!!

Safety, trust & environment

I am available for in your home boarding/dog sitting as well as dog walking as needed. I prefer to keep your furbabies as much on your schedule as possible so a meet and greet is best to determine the best plan of action while out of town. Plenty of outside time or just relaxing inside as needed and time out of the crate if necessary! At this time I am still not offering in my home care but who knows it could be something I am able to do in the future!

Kristyn does a great job with my senior dog and has been able to help with some last minute requests. She's always been on time and always sends great updates! Highly recommend!

I couldn’t be happier that I got away and had my dog well taken care of. Thank you!

Schedule

At the moment I work from home 3-4 days a week, but on the days I am in office I work right here in Fuquay :) My son is currently in school 5 days a week and my daughter is in daycare 2 days a week to which I am their school bus, so twice a day I have to take care of that. Otherwise I am more than able for drop-ins and walks between 9am and 3pm, but please feel free to reach out if you need a time outside of that range and I will do what I can to make it work :) I have updated my availability as of 9/21 as my weekdays have filled up, but always feel free to reach out and if I can make it work I will😁 weekends for the most part are wide open though🤗

Kristyn can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I prefer to do a meet and greet prior to setting up a schedule just to make sure your dog is comfortable with me and no issues there. Also just to learn the lay of the land so I don't need to bother you while you're away! Depending on when you are needing services, there is a good chance I will have at least one if not both of my children with me, so would want to ensure they are comfortable of kiddos! Please let me know if your dog needs anything specific or has any leash reactiveness to other dogs or people so that I can be mindful when out and about. Should they need any meds or have any allergies that would also be great to know!
