Experienced Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
Growing up I always had at least one dog and to me a family is not complete without one. I've always been active - I played volleyball in college and I love going on long walks, runs and hikes, so I would love to give your dog the time outside in nature that they deserve. I’m also happy lounging around the house if that’s what your pup prefers!
Reviews
Couldn't be happier with Kirstin's in-home dog sitting. She kept our spoiled husky happy as could be for over a week and even left our home clean when she left. She was communicative and friendly throughout the whole process!
Excellent communication, lots of wonderful photos and updates, took really good care of the place. Literally nothing to criticize :).
Kirstin and Khaled are incredible pet sitters! They stayed in our home for two weeks while they took care of our dog, Chiko, and we were blown away by how professional, caring, attentive, and communicative they were. We are so, so lucky that we found them and that our little Chiko got to spend time with them and their dog, Tucker. It is so hard to find someone to trust with your pet that will care for them like their own and we found that with Kirsten and Khaled. They sent photos and videos at least once daily and updated us on how Chiko was doing regularly. We are so grateful to them and will be booking them again soon! Oh, and they took amazing care of our home and left things super clean as well before they left. Just wow! Thank you Kirstin, Khaled, and Tucker!
Kirstin took great care of our dog while we were away! She was so easy to work with and sent us messages with updates while we were gone! I would definitely recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment
Making a dog comfortable is our top priority as dog sitters. Having watched over 40 dogs and raised a pup of our own, we have first hand experience on how to gain trust with a dog. We will always make sure they get the walks/runs, cuddles, playtime, love and attention they deserve, and we will send plenty of update pictures and videos while you’re away! *Note: We currently are not accepting requests for dogs with severe separation anxiety such that they cannot be left alone.
Information Kirstin S. would like to know about your pet
What is their typical routine? Any special health or dietary restrictions? How active do they like to be? Do they get along well with other dogs? How long can they be left alone for?
A typical day
We typically learn the owners routine with their pup (e.g. walks, feeding schedule, etc) and follow that. We are very active and would love to take your pup on walks, runs or hikes!

My partner Khaled and I are graduate students at Stanford. We have been dog/house sitting together for over 5 years, and when we got our dog Tucker (the Lab in the first picture) 3 years ago, we realized that many of our clients preferred us to continue dog sitting with him, so we did! He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and our clients love that their pup has a furry play mate while they’re away! If you trust us to take care of your dog while you're away, he/she will immediately become part of our family and we will take care of them as if they're our own.
