Pet care experience

Reliable Walks & Snuggles

I care for our special needs Chug (Chihuahua/Pug mix) named Briggs who has anxiety, so I’m very attuned to a pet’s body language and emotional needs. I also love our 2 year old cat and have looked after animals of all ages throughout my life—dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, hamsters, and fish—each one unique and loved. To me, pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, care, and affection I give my own. I keep my Rover calendar availability updated, as I respect the value of your time trying to arrange for Rover services.

Safety, trust & environment

I tailor my care to fit your pet’s unique needs—whether that means walking, playing, feeding, or simply providing comfort and companionship. I always follow your instructions closely and respectfully, and I’m happy to send regular photo updates for peace of mind. Most importantly, your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities.

Schedule

After retiring from a 26-year career, I’m now happily focusing on my passion: pet sitting and animal care. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I look forward to meeting new furry friends each week!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Kristen can host up to 10 drop-ins per day
It’s important for me to know anything that helps your pet feel safe and comfortable—like their routine, favorite activities, personality quirks, or any fears or triggers. I also appreciate knowing about medical needs, dietary restrictions, and how they typically behave around other animals or new people. The more I know, the better I can provide care that feels just like home for your pet!
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.
