Loving, Reliable Care for Your Pets

I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I truly love animals of all kinds and would do anything to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I treat each one with patience, kindness, and love—just like family

Boarding my cat Tilly with Kirstie was a 10/10 experience!! She was so caring towards my cat and provided me with lots of updates. She was very accommodating with Tilly’s diet! Kirstie clearly loves animals and I can’t recommend her enough for any of your pets’ needs!

Kirstie is a MUST book! She was incredibly kind and patient this was my first time leaving my kitten and she made me feel so comfortable and was amazing at communicating updates and sending pictures and videos I felt so comfortable leaving my baby in her hands if I could rate more than 5 stars I absolutely would.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I already care for pets as part of my everyday life, so adding additional pet care feels very natural to me. While I do work outside of Rover, I’m dependable with time management and communication. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention before and after work, and I schedule my bookings thoughtfully so every animal gets the care, routine, and affection they deserve. I’m very intentional about my availability and only accept bookings I can fully commit to. Mornings, evenings, and days off are dedicated to walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I always prioritize a pet’s needs while they’re in my care.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I share my home with my own friendly, well-socialized 1-year-old dog and two cats. All interactions are carefully supervised, and I always follow owner preferences when it comes to introductions, space, and routines. I’m attentive to body language and energy levels to ensure everyone feels comfortable and stress-free. If a pet prefers their own space or does best with limited interaction, I fully respect that and can provide separation as needed. I maintain a clean, calm environment and follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions closely. My goal is to create a safe, loving atmosphere where pets feel secure and cared for while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

Expect wagging tails, happy purrs, and lots of love! 🐶🐱 Dogs get walks, games of fetch, tug-of-war, and even some “paws-itively” fun brain games. Crate time or cozy naps are always part of the plan to keep energy balanced. Cats get their own VIP treatment with interactive toys, gentle snuggles, and prime lounging spots for observing the world. Every day is tailored to your pet’s personality and routine, with plenty of attention, care, and laughs. And yes — I’ll send adorable photo updates so you can see your fur babies living their best life while you’re away! 📸💛

Every pet has their own personality, and I love learning what makes them happy! A few things I like to know ahead of time: favorite toys and routines, any special dietary or medical needs, and how they feel around other animals or people. This helps me make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — like part of my little furry family! 🐶🐱💛
