Kristie brings patience, warmth, and a love of the big dog yard, where she’s always up for a snuggle or a game of zoomies on a sunny afternoon. She especially enjoys group walks — whether it’s peaceful sniffs along Cherry Lake or bursts of energy from the more playful pups.

Bath time is another highlight, with Kristie loving the satisfaction of seeing a dog go from muddy to fresh and fluffy. She’s always keen to learn new tips and tricks, especially for supporting dogs who find baths a little more sensitive.

Away from the bubbles and wagging tails, Kristie enjoys music, mini golf, and the occasional trip to the drive-ins. For her, every shift is filled with learning, laughter, movement, and plenty of dog kisses.
