Kirstyn can care for
Availability
I work remotely which allows me additional time to dedicate to caring for your fur babies. On weekdays, I am available mornings before 9am, and evenings after 5pm, as well as an hour slot mid-day. I have open availability on weekends. In terms of house sitting - I can be at your home more often than not since I work remotely, however please keep in mind I do have to step away from time to time to provide services to other clients, and to visit my own pets.

Dog & Cat Care 🐾
Pet care experience
Dedicating my time to animals - whether that be my own, fostering, volunteering with various rescues, or caring for your pets! Several years of experience providing pet care services, I have been providing services on Rover since 2021. Insured. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I can’t imagine it any other way. Growing up I was involved in caring for my family pets, and now I have a lovely lab of my own, Luna, as well as three cats, Jackson, Nala, and Snickers - my first and only foster fail. I’ve had experience caring for a variety of furry friends, including all sizes - small to extra large, puppies and kittens, high-energy breeds, shy pets, anxious and reactive dogs, and more. I’m familiar with both dog and cat body language. I have had experience, and am comfortable providing pills and oral medication to both dogs and cats. I am happy to work with your pet to ensure they are comfortable and content, I’m very patient and understand that some animals take more time to warm up. I am also happy to continue working on already established trainings you do with your pup. Currently, I primarily foster cats and kittens, although I have previously fostered under-socialized, more behaviourally challenged large breed puppies. *I kindly ask that there is some flexibility in terms of timing of drop in visits, if possible*. Please let me know your ideal timeframe for visits (ie. between 5pm-7pm). I understand that that is not always possible, and if your pet requires care at a specific time due to medication or any other reasons, please let me know and I will try my best to accommodate that, OR will let you know if I am unable to accommodate due to other commitments. Please note, additional rates may apply based on the care requirements of your pets - if your pet cannot be alone for more than 4 hours or requires constant care, if timings for visits/meals are strict, if you are out of my general service area, etc. If you have any questions regarding my services, rates, or any specific needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out, I am very happy to discuss further!
Reviews
Kirstyn took excellent care of our two cats while we were on vacation. Not only did she feed them and take care of the litter, she also gave them lots of love. We looked forward to her daily updates. Thank you Kirstyn!!
Kristyn was amazing. Will definitely be using her to watch my dog again. Communicates well, responds quickly.
Lovely! Great pictures, detailed updates. Came back to happy cats! Well, as happy as cats ever are.
Kirstyn is great! While I was confident in her skills, the photos and care summaries she shared were a fun part of my day. She's really went above and beyond to look after my cat Ben, and to keep my mind at ease. She's officially my go-to for future trips!
