Knowledgeable pet caretaker

Pet care experience

Hi I’m Kirsten! I have always loved animals and I used to be a vet assistant. I have a wide range of experience working with pets and wildlife in professional and volunteer settings. For instance, I volunteered at a spay and neuter clinic in Mexico where I collected feral street dogs for surgeries. I love walking, hiking, and running outdoors and would love an adventure buddy - your dog can set the pace! I have been the caregiver for my family’s cats and dogs in the past; now I have my own cat Cub, but I sure miss having a dog in the house. Cub is very friendly with all animals! I live in the lower unit of a duplex with a private backyard that is 90% fenced. I am working from home with flexible hours for the indefinite future and will be available during weekdays.

Kirsten is one of the biggest dog lovers I know - she is one of those people that will always say hi to the pet first! She is incredibly responsible and has a solid animal welfare background from her previous vet and wildlife experience. She loves doing outdoor activities and used to being her family dog along to anything she could. Her cat is her world, but I know she's been looking for new canine companions to explore with!

Kirsten is our go-to pet sitter for our dog Winston whenever we travel or spend weekends away. We feel confident leaving him with her as we know he will receive excellent care including exercise, play time, scratches, and massages. She is knowledgeable and has been reliable in giving him medications and supplements. Winston is a very needy (anxious) dog, and Kirsten has been more than able to meet his needs and keep him happy. I think he looks forward to when we go away and he gets to visit her!
