Hi! I’m your purr-fect sitter 🤗
Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Kirsten, and I am such a big animal lover. Thank you for considering me to take care your loved one(s). I can’t wait to meet them! Photos posted on my profile are of all the furry friends that I love taking care of here on Rover, and also two of my own (Maya and Maui) 🥰 A little about me is — I love to be outdoors and staying active (especially with our fur-littles) when not behind a desk. I love to go hiking, kayaking, fishing, zip-lining and just about anything that gets me outside. I have many years of experience with house training and working with young/old pups and kittens of all breeds, also with deafness and blindness. I am also a nurse and animal-CPR certified with the American Red Cross. So, administering oral, optic and subcutaneous prescription medications, and/or chest compressions is all well within my comfort zone.

Reviews



We are so thankful that Kirsten was able to house sit for our pets while we were traveling. She kept us updated with photos and messages, so we knew they were healthy and happy! It was a huge relief knowing she was loving them, even picking up more of their favorite food when they ran out. We will recommend Kirsten to anyone needing a pet sitter and absolutely use her again!!

Kirsten seems to be doing an awesome job with Maisie!!

Great job watching Meg!

Kirsten was able to help out on short notice. Thanks again!
About Kirsten G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will always allow the opportunity for a meet and greet, so your pets are most comfortable with me from day one! When it’s time for potty breaks, I’ll always ensure safety and the opportunity for exercise. Fresh water and litter are also a high priority of mine while in my care. I try to go above and beyond for their needs and safety!
Home
Information Kirsten G. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there is anything I should make note of for ensuring the best of care for your pet. I’m about all the love on day one! Examples I am looking for include- their feeding schedule/instructions, any special commands (German, for example), if they’re taking any medications, have any medical conditions (allergies, epilepsy, or diabetes, for example), and if they are hypersensitive to any certain things and/or situations in their environment that I should try to help them avoid while in my care. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile!
A typical day
I absolutely love to take dogs for walks, swims, or to play fetch! I will ensure your furry friend is tuckered out by the end of the day, and gets lots of love, praise, and attention!
