Pet care experience

Give your pups a mini vacation!

I have been raised with dogs my whole life. Currently, I have a hyper active australian shepherd who LOVES going for runs and constantly playing! I love all types of dogs and taking care of them to make sure they have an enjoyable time. I enjoy taking dogs to the park to run as well as taking them on a walk to get all of their excess energy out. I have watched around 150 rover dogs so far and I thoroughly enjoy having different dogs each week! Hermes has LOVED playing with all of the different pups and I would be honored for you to trust me with yours! My husband says one day I'll be a crazy dog lady for how much I love them, and I see nothing wrong with that!

I had no worries while on vacation. Receiving the updates and photos is very reassuring. Kirsten was accommodating when I needed to pick her up a little later than scheduled.

Kirsten and her husband are great sitters, our dogs are always happy to see them and relaxed when we pick them up👍

Amazing doesn’t even start to get across how great they are. I was in a last-minute bind and they really helped me out and my dog was super happy while staying at their place. I got lots of great photo updates! They will be my first option if I need someone to care for Dash in the future.

Kirsten is an amazing sitter! She loved my "Buster" just as she would her own two well behaved and well mannered "boys". Her fenced back yard is roomy and secure and peace of mind while we were away. The updates she sent while we was away were priceless. This was our second stay with her, and there's no doubt when we need another vacation, we will plan around her availability.
