Kirsten can care for

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old

Availability

I currently have a flexible schedule. When dropping in or taking your pets on a walk I am available 2-3 times a day. For overnight stays I am able to be there every night (all night) and stop in during the day between my work schedules (I work multiple part time jobs for better flexibility). I would be happy to discuss what this looks like further! Please keep in mind I cannot be at your home all day everyday for housesitting / animal sitting unless it is booked over a month in advance and it would cost more as I would need to take time off from other work to make that happen. But if you do not require that level of attention then things will be much easier to figure out!

Safety, trust & environment

However you choose for me to care for your pets inside your home I am ready and prepared to do! I love cuddling with your pets and making sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away. All I ask is for clear instructions so I can keep your fur baby’s schedule and environment as consistent as possible.

Information Kirsten W. would like to know about your pet

Anything pertinent about your pet’s schedules and needs should be clearly communicated. Walk requirements, feeding times / frequencies, medication needs, in or out of kennels, how long I can be away (groceries, grabbing a coffee, etc), and anything else you see fit to share is important to me. Ensuring your pets comfort (and yours) is my greatest concern.

A typical day

When it comes to dogs I love going on long walks to get my steps in and give them extra attention and love. I also love a good cuddle session and tug-of-war battle.

Pet care experience

I have experience cat and dog sitting for various breeds and ages, and have been doing this for most of my adult life—I love it. From taking your dogs on walks, staying over night with your kitties or puppies, or even taking care of them when they are sick, I would love to make sure your pet is taken care of just as you would yourself. I’ve dealt with rambunctious wire hairs, skittish kittens, and everything in between. I am so excited to meet your favorite doggo or kitto and love on them!

Kirsten was marvelous! She was happy to meet the girls before we set up the house sitting - I wanted to make sure they weren't too rambunctious. Kirsten was great with them and my dogs were well taken care of while we were away. I will book with her again!

Kirsten was a great fit for our goldendoodle. She took her on walks, spent time hanging out and cuddling and did a wonderful job caring for our favorite pup. We look forward to booking her again and appreciate the peace of mind knowing our dog will be safe and well cared for when when we return home.

Kirsten has taken care of our cats twice now. Each time for a week. One of our cats had diabetes and Kirsten was responsible for giving him his twice a day shot. She did a wonderful job and all 3 of my cats were given plenty of love. She sent pictures and a few videos our way. I will be using her again and would recommend others to also use her.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
