Highlights
Pet care experience
Former teacher, dog & cat lover!
I grew up with cats and have had dogs as long as I can remember. I've raised 5 dogs of my own from puppy-hood, and currently have 2 rescues. I'd love to walk, hike and love on your pets!

Safety, trust & environment
Having two dogs of my own, I understand the need for care and attention when coming by for walks or drop-in visits. I'm excellent at belly rubs and walks!
Ratings and reviews
Kristen has seemed to develop a relationship of ease with my anxious dog. She was reliable, asked relevant questions, and generally took great care of my sweet boy. I will definitely hire her again!
Reliable and easy to work with!
Kristen A. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
I can't say enough good things about Kristen. She's always prompt, and seems to enjoy visiting my dog. He is very happy when I return home, so I know he's had a good time. Kristen keeps plugging away, trying to increase the length of walks for my reluctant walker. And I really appreciate her quick response when I try to book her...not all the Rover people are good about that.
Kristen is among the top 2 dog walkers I've ever had, and I've had quite a few over the past 31 dog-years. My dog really loves her, and gets excited when I mention her name. She is patient with his reluctance to go on walks, and has made much improvement over the past few months. She is very dependable, and obviously cares a lot about dogs.
Kristen is always cheerful and dependable, and very loving toward my pooch. In addition, I really appreciate the details that she leaves me in the Rover card. Thank you Kristen!

- Just like teaching children (which I did for a long time), knowing any context or special needs of the pets is really helpful and important. That way my care can be tailored to meet their specific needs.
