animal lover, fenced in backyard

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Kiersten! I am a HUGE animal lover. I have been a dog groomer for 4 years now and I have been dog sitting for 5 years as well. My husband and I just bought our first house so I'm onto my next adventure of working with animals! I love all animals - any size, shape, breed. I think they make such a beautiful addition to a family (I personally have had dogs, a bunny, hamster, guinea pig, turtles, and a hedgehog in my life). I love fur baby cuddles, walks, and play time! I also am not easily scared away from any medical issues that may need attending. We have a fenced in yard that gives lots of room to run and play! Your pet will also have unlimited bathroom breaks. I am not able to accept cats for boarding in my home as my husband is very allergic. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me - I would be happy to help answer any questions or concerns. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

Kiersten is a wonderful dog sitter. Our Maggie-girl is a cuddly, high-spirited, allergy pooch. Maggie loves Kiersten and so do we. We never worry when we leave Maggie with Kiersten. Kiersten's experience and love for dogs is evident. I highly recommend Kiersten as a professional dog sitter.

Kiersten has been grooming my dogs forna couple years now and she is phenomenal! My dogs love her and she always makes them look adorable. She is very knowledgeable and such a sweet girl. We love her and will be using her as long as she is a groomer!

Kiersten was an amazing dog sitter! She went above and beyond. She sent me pictures while I was gone, she left the house cleaner then it was when I left, and is very kind. My fur babies loved her! I will definitely be using her again.

Literally can’t go anywhere that involves dogs without Kiersten running off and playing/petting them and also asking all the things there is to know about the dog! She loves so hard when it comes to animals in general! She’ll love your dog as if it were her own, and maybe even ask you if she can visit them on her days off (; wouldn’t recommend anyone more!

Information Kiersten H. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences because personally I do not believe that any one breed is "bad." I would like to know up front if your dog has a history of biting people or other dogs. It doesn't always scare right away but I would prefer to meet the dog in person before agreeing to any services. I would also prefer to know if your dog has any allergies or severe or casual medical conditions - it will help me take better care of your dog!

A typical day

I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to run and play! I would love to play fetch with them, tug-of-war, or even just cuddle up with them. If your dog has any special activities it enjoys let me know, I would be happy to adjust to their needs!
