Pet care experience

Providing Cuddles & Care 🐶🧡🦮

I’ve taken care of a wide range of dogs, from puppies to advanced agers. I also cared for a lab with special needs for several years. I’ve taught our own two golden retrievers basic commands and love to walk them daily. I’m patient, compassionate, and look forward to caring for your dog(s) like I would my own! In my free time, I love to run, hike, and work in my garden - so basically anything I can do outside ☀️.

Kristen is the best! Incredibly easy to work with and anyone can tell she loves and is great with dogs. I’d recommend anyone to trust their pup to her care anytime.

Kristen is an absolute gem! We feel incredibly lucky to have found her to help care for our sweet giant rescue while we're at work. She is always punctual, highly communicative, and provides detailed updates after every visit, which gives us tremendous peace of mind. Not only did we find the perfect dog, we found the perfect pet sitter. Thank you so much, Kristen. We are truly grateful for the care, attention, and love you give our boy. ❤️😊

Kristen is an incredibly kind and compassionate person with a genuine love for animals. I currently have two Golden Retrievers, and they get so excited whenever she comes over to visit. I also had a fear-aggressive Rhodesian Ridgeback, Dexter, who occasionally needed a sitter. Kristen took the time to work with him and patiently earned his trust, helping him become more comfortable around her. Her calm, understanding approach made all the difference. I couldn’t have asked for a more patient, caring, and dependable person to look after my dogs.

Kristen was excellent with my 4 month old puppy! She was on time, reinforced some training, gave her terrific exercise. Highly recommend

Kristen was great with my pups! Both of my dogs are rescues and one in particular can be very timid. I can always tell when she'll be okay with someone and she was great with Kristen from the start. Kristen showed up at the requested times, sent plenty of photos and updates and I wasn't worried about my dogs one bit while out of town. Thank you Kristen!

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or accommodations that would be helpful to their care. It can be something as simple as they prefer one leash over another or only like a specific treat. I get it with having two of my own, they can be particular and I want to cater to their needs.
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.
