I walk the walk & bark the bark
Pet care experience
I have an array of animal care experience from adoption shelters and equestrian centers all the way to caring for camels and snakes at the zoo. My network of friends & family have me on speed dial for their cherished pets. Not only because I provide the requested care but also that special attention that makes them feel safe & loved. With my experience I am able to accurately read behavior and improvise when the need arises. I also speak Spanish!
Reviews
Kristen did a fantastic job taking care of my two elderly dogs. She constantly kept me informed about how they were doing and kept the house in great condition. My dogs really enjoyed spending time with her (they told me so)! She is now our go to person when we need support!
This is the first time we’ve ever used a pet/housesitter. We could not have been happier with Kristen, and we plan to use her again when we go away in several weeks. She was kind and gentle with our Foscoe; she was great with communication, sending us photos and reports every day. Highly recommend.
I’ve had the blessing of knowing Kristen for 17 years. One of the things we connected on most was our love for animals. An animal in her care should bring peace and ease as she will be gentle with love and fierce in protection. She has always taken care of my animals when I am on vacation and it’s such a relief knowing that she is there with them.
We just want say that Kristen has taken care of our pets whenever we needed to go out town or to an event. She has been our go to person as a trustworthy doggy/cat sitter. Our dogs love her and we can relax knowing they are good hands. She is great following our instructions as to meds and walking schedules. She has proven herself as a loving pet caregiver and we recommend her highly!

Safety, trust & environment
Every pet and owner have their own preference so I adjust my caretaking to follow that. If it is a younger or hyperactive pups I prefer them to be trained for leash walking so I can thoroughly exercise them and have less chance for accidents.
Information Kristen A. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if they have any physical or medical needs. Also any special behaviors I should watch out for (i.e scared of the mail man) or any areas on their body they are uncomfortable with touch.
A typical day
If they are physically able to I like to start the day off with a walk or some play with a favorite toy. If they are not then I like to provide them company either in the backyard or a common area they enjoy being in. I also think treat puzzles/toys are a great tool to use for enrichment.
