“Kirsten was wonderful! I got pictures everytime she visited my pups. They seemed to enjoy Kirsten dropping in for visits and having playtime. She really does a great job of taking care of my girls, especially my old dog. If your pet needs extra care, I highly recomend asking for Kirsten's services!”


About: I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to showing up on time. I make sure owners feel confident knowing their dog is safe, cared for, and enjoying every walk. I have a consistent schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I make sure pets receive timely visits while giving them my full attention.

About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for caring for animals and have grown up around pets from an early age. For the past 3 years, I’ve also cared for and trained my own dog, giving me hands-on experience with daily care routines, behavior management, and creating a safe, loving environment for pets. I’m currently on summer break from my role as a substitute teacher, which allows me to have a flexible and open schedule for pet care services. Aside from two previously scheduled trips this summer, I am available to provide reliable, attentive care and ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced backyard that allows for secure outdoor play and exercise. My home is shared with two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other pets and help create a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. I also have crates available if needed, whether for your pet’s established routine, comfort, training preferences, or safe rest time. My goal is to ensure every dog feels secure, cared for, and right at home during their stay.
