All God's Creatures Great and Small

Pet care experience

Hey hey, I'm Kjirsten (pronounced K-year-sten) and I grew up on 7 acres of dogs, cats, chickens, and the occasional stray neighbor horse in the middle of nowhere Alaska. I've taken care of everything from pullets to pigs, goats to guineas, and everything in between. Obviously also the main event; cats and dogs. I've raised two hunting dogs that are click, whistle, signal, and verbally trained and two cats that were both incredible mousers. Animals are my first love but I travel too much to have my own which I believe is a smart though sad decision. Help me curb my need for pet cuddles and walks all while supplying your fur baby with plenty of Tender Loving Care while you are busy or away!

Information Kjirsten S. would like to know about your pet

I love talking with dogs the way they know; let me know what commands your animal uses! I love to adventure and bring a dog with, let me know what the animal is comfortable with.

A typical day

We will go on neighborhood walks, visit dog parks, hike, play fetch, and watch tv together! Let me know what your usual day is and I'll try to match that.

I work fulltime but my weekends are usually open. That being said, if a dog is used to a working adult and you're on vacation, I'm your girl!
