“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kristin and the exceptional care she provides for my puppy, Newton. From the very first day, it was clear that Kristin is not only professional but also truly passionate about what she does. She sends regular updates, complete with adorable pictures and videos, which always brighten my day while I'm at work. Her genuine love for Newton is clear in every interaction, and it's such a relief to know he's in such caring hands. Kristin is incredibly trustworthy and has gone above and beyond to ensure Newton is happy, safe, and well taken care of. Her sweet nature and attention to detail have made all the difference, and I couldn't be more grateful. Besides being a fantastic caregiver, Kristin has also become a wonderful friend, and always leaves the home cleaner than we left it.

About: My specialties are playtime and my attentiveness. I will bathe/drop off for grooming, walk, play with, feed, and snuggle your pets as if they were my own. I’ve cared for animals since childhood, gaining experience with many personality types. That’s taught me patience, intuition, and how to make pets feel safe and loved. I’m currently Active Duty Air Force and will have lots of time with your pet :) My windows for boarding opens from 11am-1pm and then again from 4:30pm-6pm on week days. On weekends I will be available from 9am-5pm I have a decently sized, fenced in backyard, plenty of room for your dog to safely run around or for your cat (if harness trained) to sniff and explore :) In my house, your pet would be fed along with mine at 6:45am before work, I’d return for lunch at 11 to feed lunch (will skip if specified) let your dog out/scoop litter boxes, and then after work your babies get more of my full undivided attention by playing with them and cuddling them, watch TV with them, making sure they are 100% comfortable in my care. After Dinner we will wind down for bed and your pup would be crated for the night :) If I’m pet sitting at your home, I will follow the rules that you have for me to do for your pet and ensure they are taken care of✨
