House Sitting in Hope

About: I have multiple years of experience with senior pet care and behavioral issues. Whether you have a new pup or an old one I would be excited to take care of them. I work full time 4 days a week but I always have time to go for a walk or play fetch with your favorite pup. Are you more comfortable with your pet staying home while you enjoy time away? Don’t worry, I’ll keep their schedule as close to normal as possible.

About: I grew up with both large and small animals, and have years of experience working with dogs that are reactive or have behavior issues such as food and toy aggression. I love being able to earn trust and provide a trusting environment to animals needing a second chance. I currently work part time and am available most afternoons and evenings (besides Thursdays) to do drop in visits as well as walks and housesitting. I am available most afternoons starting at 2pm, but please feel free to reach out as I may be able to make a request work with my schedule. I make sure safety is a priority in my home as someone who has experience with aggressive animals. Food is always kept away, and feeding times are kept seperate and at specific times. I prioritize making sure that large animals are not left out with small animals as it can turn fatal even in bonded pairs.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and coworkers for about two years, and volunteered at the local pet shelter during high school. I grew up around lots of dogs and cats, I owned a cat growing up who is now 14 years old, and adopted my first dog six years ago! I currently work full time but have the ability to check in on your furry friends in the morning, around noon, and in the evening, in addition to house sitting on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs who can be crated and kept separate from other animals when necessary, and there are multiple rooms in the house in case space is needed.

About: I’ve take care dogs since I was 7 always around dogs and always helping neighbors with their dogs. It is the best environment that I love to in it. I’m currently working on base but I’m always available after 5 pm and weekends for walking daily after 5 pm or staying with me if someone needs to travel. I have a fenced backyard and friendly dog that loves to play so I have enough space for more dogs and toys for them to play.

“I cannot say enough great things about Kristen! She put so much work and care into my dog Riley this weekend. They went on outings and day trips, they played, and watched Riley's favorite doggy TV. Riley was not only well cared for, but I can see that he was also loved and enriched during his time with Kristen and that just means the world to me. Kristen was also incredibly responsive, amazing taking care of our home, and sent great photos and videos. 100% hope to book again!”
