Safety, trust & environment

I can't have your pets stay with me in my home since I adopted a reactive male resident cat who hates dogs! He's currently learning to accept his own housemate.

Information Kris P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any aggression or trigger issues. We can work on this if I am aware of it upfront. Also if there are any allergies to foods or treats.

A typical day

I love being able to give your dog a break during the day to be outside getting exercise, bathroom breaks and one on one bonding time. I work with cats on their level of comfort as a calming or fun playmate.

Pet care experience

I am a semi-retired licensed veterinary technician who has worked in all facets of the trade. Currently I am available for your pet vacation visits, house sitting or daily dog walks in Rugby/Barracks, Downtown, Belmont, Greenbrier and Dunlora areas within a 5 mile radius of town. I form bonds with my clients pets to ensure their comfort level when you are not able to be home with them. Lots of play time, socialization, elimination/disposal and exercise time is given with each visit. I am also sensitive to the very different needs of cats. I served as a cat socializer volunteer at CASPCA for 3 years.

Kris is always great. She takes great care of our duo and also does little things like put the soft blanket on the back of the couch in our cats’ favorite roosting spot. Couldn’t recommend more.

We love having Kris stay at our house to watch Marleigh! She takes great care of our doggo (gives her a lot of love!) *and* our home while we’re away. Thanks again, Kris!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
