About Kirsten L.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am not able to board animals in my personal home. I have experience housesitting over extended periods of time (1 month), as well as experience using keycodes, locks, etc. in order to provide check-ins.
Information Kirsten L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any behavioral issues that I should be aware of. I have experience with resource guarding, elopement, and reactive behaviors.
A typical day
I love both energetic animals and couch potatoes! On a typical housesitting visit I’ll follow the schedule the owners have already established in order to maintain normalcy for each pet.

Experienced Pet Caretaker
Pet care experience
Over the past 10 years I have taken care of a variety of pets including dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional chicken! I am comfortable around animals of all shapes and sizes, and truly enjoy spending my time caring for them. I have experience doing overnight and extended stays, as long as short-term check-ins and walks. This fall I will be in grad school and would love to do more daytime visits with my increased availability!
Cat care experience

Kirsten also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews

Kirsten took the best care of my little goldendoodle Reggie. She sent us updates throughout our trip and I could tell how happy and safe he felt in her care! 10/10 recommend, she is awesome

Kirsten was absolutely awesome! We needed a sitter for an extended time as we were on vacation for about a week and a half, and we got updates and adorable photos every day. Kirsten was great at administering Skippy's medication and helping him with his mobility issues (he's a senior, tripawd pup.) It was clear Skippy got comfortable with her very quickly, and Kirsten also provided comfort to him during the bane of every dog owner's summer...the fireworks during 4th of July. We came home to a happy dog and a very clean house! Highly recommend...thanks so much for treating Skippy like your own, Kirsten!

Kirsten was great! She took amazing care of our dog and was very communicative. Highly recommend!



Provided excellent care, as always! Third rebook. Kirsten is a caring, reliable, kind human- she helped us with last minute care needs for our three fur babies (two require medication). Thanks so much Kirsten!
