Pet care experience

Providing love to your fur babies

Hi! I’m a devoted animal lover who understands that pets are truly family. When you’re away, you deserve to know your furry (or feathered, or scaled!) loved ones are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for—and that’s exactly what I provide. I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s a playful pup who needs exercise and attention, a shy cat who prefers quiet companionship, or a senior pet who needs extra patience and care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m especially attentive to the little things—keeping routines consistent, noticing changes in behavior, and making sure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re gone. From belly rubs and playtime to medication and special diets, I’m happy to accommodate whatever your pet needs. I also know how important communication is, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel happy, relaxed, and loved—and for you to come home knowing they were in the very best hands.

Kirsten was so patient with our two little doxies. They aren’t the easiest to work with! She was very punctual in her visits and always sent me a note a lots of pictures. Highly recommend!

Can’t thank Kirsten enough for taking such good care of my Potter!! This was the first time my husband and I took an extended vacation (8 days) without having someone house sit as well and Kirsten made sure potter was comfortable with each visit. I got atleast 5 pictures with every visit and I just know he loved her coming to spend time. Will 100% be requesting Kirsten again!

Kristen was absolutely wonderful with my two dachshunds during their four-day stay with her! After meeting her, I felt completely at ease and never once worried about their care. She communicated clearly, and it was obvious they were happy, comfortable, and treated very well while I was away. Finding someone you trust with your pets is priceless. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter!
