Let’s have a pawsome time!
Pet care experience
Hiya my name is Kristen! I have been a veterinary technician for 3 years and worked in a doggy daycare for more than a year. I have been a pet sitter for local clients at my veterinary hospital for the past 2 years. I am passionate about all animals, from scales, feathers, blubber and to dog fur. Yes blubber! I interned at Marine Mammals of Maine, where we rehabilitated Harbor Seals. I am currently a pet sitter for clients at the veterinary hospital I work for. I have established trustworthy relationships with over 10 families. I love connecting with pets, treating them like my own and loving them while their family is away making them feel safe and comfortable. I am hoping to extend my clientele and spread stress free fun care to your pets! And with my veterinary knowledge, I will keep your pet safe and if an emergency occurs, I have veterinary knowledge to access the solution, will contact you, and respond quickly. I am currently in the process of going from full time at work to working at the vet hospital part time and attending school to become an X ray tech in the fall. I will have a lot more free time than and hoping to fill in my study breaks with a fresh breath of air with a furry friend! To fill my time between classes, I’d love to adventure around with your fur baby!

Safety, trust & environment
I only pet sit cats in my home on a rare case. I prefer to stay at someone’s home, which allows for house sitting. I do not have the right space for a dog to stay at my home.

Information Kristen C. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting or waking your pup, I’d like to know a couple of things about you fur baby! Do they have any allergies? Are they reactive to anything? What kind of exercise does your pup enjoy? What commands do they know or are working on? I used to be a dog trainer and can help your dog reach their full potential! Also, please let me know if your pet has any special things that need to be done like medicines, etc. I have experience giving dogs medicines, orally and administering injections. And as someone who has a kitty cat with asthma and gets an inhaler every day, I know how important it is for them to get their meds!
A typical day
I love to keep your doggos enriched and happy. We’ll play a bunch of games, work on perfecting tricks, check out all the fun spots in the neighborhood, hit the beach, of course get lots of pets and treats. We will be sure to raise the woof together.

Availability
Currently, my schedule is free to overnight pet sit at any time. I have free time before work, after and during lunch breaks. I am starting school in the fall to become and X ray tech. I will be in school full time but have free afternoons and will have a lot of free time that I do not normally have. I’d love to fill that time with giving your dog some kisses and boops on the nose!
