Pet care experience
I am a complete, enthusiastic animal-lover! I myself have always lived with animals in the home, ranging from rabbits to cats and a dog. I moved to Madison to attend UW’s veterinary school and I look forward to helping & healing any animals I can in the future. My rates lean toward including my years of experience as a vet assistant and now as a student of veterinary medicine.
Reviews
Kristalyn is a super animal lover. She is caring, passionate and easy to communicate with. Will definitely need her help again.
Great person to entrust with your pet. I have a senior dog with some quirks & special needs- so it’s wonderful to have a punctual, capable person to help when needed.
I have booked rover sitters dozens of time and while my experiences have always been positive I can honestly say that Kristalyn is the best dogsitter I have come across. Extremely punctual, responsible, reliable and great communication. She kept me updated throughout my entire trip and took amazing care of my 200 lbs great dane whom was injured and agitated. She followed instructions to the dot and even took my baby to his favorite park! Very kind person and trustworthy. I already requested to book her again, truly a stellar sitter :)
Why should Kristalyn be caring for your animals? Well to start, she has a love for all creatures big and small. Kristalyn has volunteered regularly at Ride-to-Fly: a horse therapy facility for people with special needs. Along the lines with horse and people care, she has been a wrangler for several summers on a ranch in Colorado, teaching elementary school children how to ride horses using western techniques, and on many occasions, she responds to horse first aid care. When she is not in the equestrian world, Kristalyn has a 50 lb dog named Pompom and her most recent cat is Nala. On top of that, Kristalyn is an organized person that follows direction well. You pet care is in loving hands with Kristalyn.

I won’t accept any boarding bookings at this time. In your home, I am more than happy to accommodate what supports you & your pet(s) best!
Information Kristalyn B. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds and all sizes! I have a dog myself that I would ideally involve on our walks and would definitely be present for any boarding. If your pup isn’t a fan of others, understandable for any reason, please just let me know so I can be best prepared for everyone to have a positive experience!
A typical day
For walks, I would love to include some training opportunities - as comfortable for each individual - as well as plentiful sniffing experiences. Hikes or other adventure excursions would be wonderful when everyone is available & suitable, including treats, any training support, and extra play.

Availability
Speaking of rates! I am happy to work out what works best for the both of us. I am More than happy to adjust any booking price to fit precisely what needs you & your four-legged family have. If you’re not seeing an option or price tag that seems feasible, please reach out. I am generally available outside of typical work hours (M-F/8-5) for drop ins, general house/pet sittings, or bigger adventures. I can be available at a ‘lunch hour’ occasionally too! Even with this schedule, walks can happen two to three times a day depending on location, and depending on the day walks could be from 15 minutes to over an hour. Whatever works best for you, your pet, and any time I have available’. They could also be more of an excursion or ‘pack’ adventure depending on the timing, comfort, and pup preference. With House Sitting an active service, I won’t be doing overnights or full time stays for the house sitting option but its been requested as a longer ‘drop in’ option from others! I just wanted to avoid any miscommunications on what services would be available as I am not available for overnight stays at your home. Have any anxious pets? I’d be happy to sit in with them for date night! I will be happy to discuss any service or scenario with you!
