Pet care experience

English/Spanish pet lover!

I have grown up with all sorts of pets, big and small dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, birds, fish, etc! Also have experience with pets with special needs like deafness, blindness, anxiousness, fear, reactivity, etc. I also volunteered at many rescues and adoption centres all over the world, so I know how to deal with a lot of common behaviours that some rescue pets can have!

Kirsty did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She was attentive, caring, and very communicative throughout the whole time. I really appreciated the regular updates and felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such great hands. Highly recommend her!

Drop-In Visits • Jun 05, 2026

This was the second time Kirsty came to do drop in visits for our cats. Once again she was fantastic. She was super easy to communicate with, was great with our cats, sent pictures and videos, and also helped save a plant that fell victim to our cats' antics. We 100% would recommend her!

Drop-In Visits • Mar 14, 2026

Kirstin took wonderful care of our cat while we were away. She visited twice during our vacation, and we felt completely at ease knowing our cat was in such good hands. She was super friendly, easy to communicate with, and very reliable. Kirstin kept us updated by sending photos during her visits, which we really appreciated and loved seeing while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and she did an excellent job overall. We would absolutely recommend Kirstin to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter and would happily book her again.

Excellent experience! I left my dog with Kirsty for almost 3 weeks and she knew exactly how to adapt to all the care she needs. I know for sure she gave her lots of love! Highly recommended!

Kirsty a été super avec Pancho ! Très à l'écoute de ses besoins lors de la prise de contact, arrangeante pour la logistique, et avec une communication très régulière durant le long du séjour. Nous avons dû rallonger celui-ci de 4 jours à cause des grèves et Kirsty a été incroyablement présente, rassurante et arrangeante. Echo est également adorable ! On recommande à 100% :)

Schedule

I work from home in a pet friendly building and have a pretty flexible schedule! I can do early mornings, lunch times, evenings, weekends, let me know your preference and I can definitely adapt accordingly! I live super close to multiple parks and the beach so I can provide many fun walkies!

Safety, trust & environment

As an experienced pet owner, I’ve had pets of all sizes and ages, from teething puppies to seniors with bladder issues, I have pet proofed my home with having all my houseplants a sliding door away from the pets, nothing is ever left out in pet reach, and specific solutions are put in place for unique needs (my dog Echo sometimes is destructive with my sofa when left alone so I have a pile of wood blocks to place on the sofa when we are out to ensure his environment is safe)

Pets

A typical day

I have a dog of my own, so fun walks to nearby parks, the seawall, the beach are always happening! Enrichment games like peanut butter lick matts, training games and tug of war is also in our daily routine. Also! I’m really into photography so I will add free pictures of your pet with every booking! ?
