About Porter Pet Care
About Kristen Porter, CPDT-KA
I am located in San Jose, CA. I offer training locally and via video calls around the country.
After decades of teaching high school, I retired to embrace my other love - being with animals. I am certified as a Dog Trainer (CCPDT) and Dog Walker, Pet Sitter, and Zookeeper Assistant (Animal Behavior College). I am a member of Professional United Pet Sitters (PUPS) and the Association of Professional Dog Trainers International (APDT). I'm insured by Pet Care Insurance.
I grew up with a lovable mutt, and I can't imagine ever not having a couple of pups. I've been a pet mom of dogs and cats for more than 25 years, and they are my kids, my family. When I was growing up, I also had hamsters, mice, and a rat. I love animals of ALL kinds.
I will definitely love your babies like my own. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your precious pets. :)
