Animal lover here to help!
Pet care experience
Over the years I’ve either owned or cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, bunnies, and fish. I have responsibly cared for the pets of my friends and neighbors, both in their homes and mine. I am amazed by the diversity in the animal world and enjoy any opportunity to get to know our animal friends and companions. Each one is so unique. Let me help you out by loving on YOUR pets, too! Along with animals, I love the outdoors. I enjoy walking, hiking, and occasionally running and biking. I’ve experienced first-hand the many benefits of fresh air, exercise, and sunshine. Since walking and outdoor life is such a passion for me, I’d love to share it with your dog for his/her daily exercise. Let’s give it a try! I’m happy to serve.
Reviews
I appreciate the honesty and dependability-ness of Kirsten and can always depend on her to be on time and have great communication. She is a great animal lover and is very adept at sending cute photos of special places while out on a walk. I highly recommend her!
Kirsten always cares with her whole being. Paying attention to even the smallest detail. She is a warm, friendly and kind person who I have known and found to be trustworthy for more than 15 years.
Kirsten and her family were excellent caregivers for our cat. He got lots of love and some much needed exercise while there as well! We trust them and would definitely us them again!

Safety, trust & environment
I am not able to have pets in my home at the moment, but I am happy to visit with your animals in your home or in an outdoor setting.
Information Kirsten J. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. It would also help to know how they react around children and other animals, any dietary information, and what commands they respond to.
A typical day
I love taking my dog friends out for walks, exploring the neighborhood and any local parks. While house and pet-sitting, I love walking with the dog(s). If the dog is up for it, we will spend time outdoors walking and exploring anywhere from 30-60 minutes, at least twice a day. I often housesit with my kids and husband, and they are all great with animals. The kids are especially excited to make new dog friends and play fetch, tug of war, or just sit together for cuddles and pets. My husband is a natural with dogs. Playful, friendly dogs always seems to know he'll enjoy their slobbery kisses!
