Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I could walk. I often foster kittens and dogs for the humane society and animal shelter in town. I currently have a cat who is fine with other animals as long as they’re fine with her!

I’ve booked with kiersten multiple times, and she has always done a great job at taking care of my little fur baby, she keeps me updated throughout the day. Highly recommend.

I have known Kierstin for many years and, in that time, I have known her to be passionate about animal care and a loving friend. She has owned and been the primary caretaker for multiple animals and has fostered many more in a safe home full of love! I would (and have!) trusted Kierstin with the care of my own fur babies and have been very happy with the care and love she provided.

Kierstin has an incredibly large heart for animals that has driven her to foster cats/kittens and dogs in multiple instances. Her caring for animals results in a strong sense of responsibility in making sure all of their needs are met. Polite in communication and flexible schedule. Your pup is in good hands with her!

I don’t have a fenced yard but my complex does have a fenced in tennis court that we’ve been using as a dog park. I have a large crate for when I crate train foster dogs, so if your dog is crate trained then I can accommodate that easily.

Information Kierstin R. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know if they need any special food, medication, or have any behavioral quirks (like if they don’t like cats, dogs, large men, etc).

A typical day

I live across the street from Alfred Ring park which is a really nice wooded area I like to take dogs for walks. I also have a fenced in tennis court that people have repurposed Into a little dog park where we play fetch and socialize. I also love going to Depot park if a dog is okay around lots of people.
