Pet care experience

Love and respect for all fur babies

I've been caring for cats ever since my parents got us our first one when I was around 10. I grew up with 3 cats in that household, and now as an adult I have 2 cats of my own. I am often considered a "cat whisperer," as in most cats will warm up to me, despite any aloofness with other people. But if they still want their space, I respect every animal's unique personality. I'm an avid watcher of Jackson Galaxy (the cat behaviorist), so I understand the deeper workings behind cat psychology and behavior. I've never owned a dog, but I have been house- and dog-sitting. I do love dogs, I just have never had one of my own! Regardless of the species of your pet, it is certain that I will care for them as if they were my own, and that includes holding conversations out loud with them even while no other humans are around!

Kris was great. She loved my pooch and stayed at my house with no problems. I will book her again.

Kris did great with our kitties! She messaged us regularly and was up front about any issues.

Kris did a great job with my two dogs and was very adaptable when one was a bit more energetic than we both expected!

Let me know if your pet has any special behaviors or needs that I'll need to account for (i.e. hyper, jumpy, skittish, shy, special routine I'll need to go through so their situation feels more normal, etc.)
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.
