Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around morning and evening walks, playtime, and feeding, so your pets always feel cared for and consistent in their routine. During the week, I balance my work with plenty of outdoor time and cuddles, and on weekends I love adding in longer walks or play sessions.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure to keep their routines consistent—mealtimes, walks, play, and cuddle breaks all happen just the way they’re used to. I also give regular updates with photos so you feel connected while you’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a safe, cozy space where they’re treated like part of the family. I use only cruelty-free, vegan products, and I keep a calm, clean environment so they’re comfortable and happy. No matter where I’m caring for them, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own.

Information Kristen B. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful for me to know your pet’s daily routine (feeding times, walk schedule, favorite toys), any health needs or medications, and how they do with new people, other pets, or on walks. Please also share any quirks—like if they’re shy, energetic, or have special comforts they love. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make them feel right at home.

A typical day

A typical day with me starts with a morning walk, fresh water, and lots of love. Throughout the day, I make time for play, enrichment activities, and cuddle breaks so pets feel happy and secure. Meals are always served on schedule, and I keep their routines consistent. I also love capturing candid photos and short videos 📸🎥 of your pets during the day. You’ll get fun updates that show their personalities shining through, helping you feel connected even while you’re away. Evenings are all about winding down with a relaxed walk or cozy snuggle before bedtime.

Vegan Pet Sitter And Photographer

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Kristen! Animals have always been at the heart of my life. As a vegan and monthly donor to the ASPCA, I care deeply about giving pets the love and respect they deserve. I also only use cruelty-free and vegan products, so you can feel confident your pets are being cared for with the same kindness and ethics that guide my daily life. Along with dependable pet sitting and house sitting, I’m also a passionate pet photographer 📸🐾. I love capturing your pets’ personalities in candid, joy-filled photos that you’ll be able to treasure. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight care, or just extra snuggles, I treat every animal like my own.

Kristen was great with our pup! She provided many updates and spent great quality time with her. I felt at ease having her in my home with Maggie and would recommend her to anyone!
