Highlights
Pet care experience
Attentive, Reliable & Experienced
Hi, I'm Kirstie (pronounced "curse-tea"). I'm a huge animal lover and have taken care of my own and other people's cats and dogs since I was a child. I grew up on a farm with goats, indoor cats and barn cats, so I'm experienced with a variety of animals, including atypical ones. I'm very good with cats of all personalities especially and administering their medications. I'm trustworthy, dependable, and capable of following complex instructions. I hope you'll choose me to care for your pets. :) I'm also an artist and paint custom pet portraits, let me know if you'd like to learn more!

I'm a very clean and tidy person and will be respectful of your home and leaving it the same, (or better :) ) than I found it.
Ratings and reviews
Kirstie is amazing! Felt very worry free while we were gone that Graves would be taken care of and happy. She took the time to really look after him for a hour a day which I know can be a lot. She even noticed my dying plant outside and watered it. I highly recommend Kirstie to look after your pets. She was thorough and communicative and will definitely hire again!

Thank you, Kirsten, for looking after my dear companion in my absence. The daily notes and images really helped me feel at ease. Kirsten is personable, competent and, above all, reliable. My kitty warmed to her immediately.

I cannot recommend Kirstie highly enough as a dog sitter! She took exceptional care of my three dogs, each with very unique needs: a senior dog, an extra-large breed with medical issues, and a rambunctious puppy. Kirstie’s ability to manage and meet all their individual needs with patience, kindness, and expertise is truly remarkable. Our senior dog requires extra attention and comfort, and Kirstie made sure he was always well-cared for and comfortable, even during his slower moments. For our XL breed, who has medical issues, Kirstie demonstrated great responsibility and attentiveness, administering medications on schedule and keeping a close eye on his health. As for our puppy, Kirstie was full of energy and creativity, keeping him entertained while maintaining his training routine. I was impressed by how clean and organized everything was when we returned. She communicated updates regularly, sending us photos and videos that gave us peace of mind. It was clear how much she genuinely cares for animals, treating each of our dogs as if they were her own. If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and skilled dog sitter who can handle any challenge, Kirstie is the perfect choice!
Kirstie has watched my two golden retrievers (Chewie and Leia) at my house several times for about a week each time. My dogs were well-cared for, taken for regular walks, played with, and fed according to their normal routine. I trust Kirstie to watch my fur-babies without reservation, and she would be the first person I would ask to dog-sit in the future!
Kirstie is amazing with animals, and wonderful to work with. She stayed with my two cats while my husband and I were on a long trip. My one cat is extremely timid with strangers, usually hiding the whole time someone is in the house, and he warmed up to her right away. She thought to ask questions and write things down about their routines and care that I hadn’t considered. She also sent photos and videos of them often, which we enjoyed and gave us peace of mind that they were happy. I cannot recommend her enough to care for your pets.
