Pet care experience

I’ll love your pet as my own

I’m a natural caregiver, experienced with cat care, dog care, and senior dog care. I work in healthcare and enjoy gardening - tending to the needs of all living things brings me immense joy, whether that is through playing with cat and pup toys, going for walks, or cuddling on the floor or couch (if permitted). I’ve worked with pets with hearing and/or vision impairment and am sensitive to their needs. I will truly treat your pet as if they were my own. New to Rover?

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

It’s very important to me to follow your instructions to the T. The more you share with me about your fur babies’ needs, the better I can care for them. I appreciate written instructions in whatever level of detail you are willing to provide. I also love to share pics/videos of your pets with you while you’re traveling, if you’re comfortable with that! I’ve completed the American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid Online training course.

We absolutely loved Kristen! She was so sweet with our dogs and sent the cutest pictures and updates. Maisie can be a little nervous, and Kristen was so patient and gentle with her, which we really appreciated. Both girls seemed so comfortable with her, and we’re really happy we found someone we trust and like so much. We’ll definitely be booking her again and are very happy to have her as part of Chloe and Maisie’s crew! 🐾💕

Kristen was an excellent communicator and I felt so comfortable leaving for the day knowing that she was stopping by. I also appreciated the meet and greet beforehand which showed me how much she cared to get to know Bongo and his needs! Would totally recommend.

Kristen went above and beyond taking care of my fur babies. She took extra care of my chronically ill kitty with cuddles, updates, and confirmed each medication as it was given. Made us all feel a lot more comfortable.

Kristen was amazing as always. Not only are my furbabies well taken care of, but Kristen always sends regular updates so I know how everyone is doing. Came home to a happy and relaxed zoo.

As always, my furbabies were in the best care with Kristen. Frequent pictures and updates so I knew everyone was doing fine. Plus she expertly handles the care of my special needs and senior pets. I can relax knowing she’s there

Schedule

As a mid-career professional with no children, I’d love to make myself available to care for your pets! Please note my full time job keeps me away for 8 hour shifts Tues to Friday. I am available for morning walks (7-8am), any time after 5pm, and all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I’m a homebody, so if you choose me to pet sit in your home you can rest assured your pet will receive plenty of good company and TLC.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Kristen can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Please let me know about any special needs your pet has so I can be prepared to accommodate them. I want to know about your pet’s personality, likes, and dislikes. Let’s schedule a brief meet & greet before booking so you can rest assured your pet will be comfy with me.
