Pet care experience
I've pet sit over the years for cats and dogs, varying from drop ins for feedings/walks and cuddles to staying over night for a week or more. I love animals of all kinds and have had several of my own- currently a cat mom to my fur babies Toffee Cake and Mocha Bean. My family has had a couple of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters over the years while growing up as well. No dog is too big or small, young or old, energetic or laid back, loud or drooly- I love them all! I am also feline friendly- I try to make every cat my friend. I can do overnights on weekends (can negotiate during weekdays), drop ins throughout the week. Most service needs can be negotiated depending on your animals specific needs. I have some experience with special needs animals (physical disability for the animal).
Reviews
Kirsten was wonderful with our 3 doggies! Our family was in town for a local tournament. When we found ourselves needing help, we reached out to Kirsten. She responded promptly, answered all of our questions and helped us to feel confident that our fur babies would be in great hands. One of our pups can be a bit timid and I told her of our concerns. She assured me that she understood his needs. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day, which helped me to know they were settling in with her. When we returned from the tournament, the timid boy was on his back getting tummy rubs by Kirsten! We were surprised and very grateful for her care of our pups! This was our family’s first experience using Rover and we would absolutely book again!
Kirsten was great! We just did an overnight quick stay out of town but it was nice to have someone dependable keep our babies for us!
Thank you so much for the updates and taking good care of my kitty while I was gone. Would highly recommend this sitter!!
Love her. I was completely at ease after meeting her. My one dog normally won't stop barking at a stranger in our home. My dog calmed right down and was fine. She kept in contact with us while we were gone and even sent us several pictures. We have already booked another stay.

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer keeping an animal where they're most comfortable. If they have a schedule they abide by, then I will do best to work around that to keep them on their routine. I understand how routine and environment is important - my cats are routine dependent, especially when to comes to feedings. I will usually schedule a home visit to meet your furbaby(ies) to get an idea of their comfort and their schedule.

A typical day
Depending on the needs of the animal, we can lounge in their favorite room with the favorite blanket, play with their toys or go for a walk to burn off some energy.

Availability
I have a full time job, with longer hours Monday thru Thursday (7:30 am-5:30). Friday's my office closes at noon. In the past, I've used lunch breaks to stop in and let dogs out for a potty break. I do my best to be flexible with a pets schedule. I am always willing to discuss their routines and work together with pet parents.
