Reliable & responsible petsitter!
Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old, with my first experience being petsitting our next door neighbors lovely golden retrievers. Since then, I've had many more positive petsitting experiences for friends, family and coworkers. I love to go on walks and let dogs sniff to their hearts content! I also have experience giving medications to dogs, including insulin shots for my own family's dog.
Reviews
Kristen is very thoughtful, caring and punctual. As she was going to spend a few hours with my puppy, she wanted to understand what Zara likes and dislike before they meet. She sent me regular photo updates and it truly seemed that they were having a great time. Kristen is very reliable and trustworthy. I was happy to have her help.
I have know Kristen since she was 6 years old and she has always been a lovely, young woman, who is intelligent and kind. She was my neighbor for 15 years and I watched her interact with her dog (Besenji) and my 2 Golden Retrievers and my cat. She was always responsible and loving to them. I would never hesitate to have her care for my animals.
Kristen took care of our dog Ellie for many years, even as Ellie got older and was slowing down. Kristen has such a calm demeanor and she new how to match Ellie's personality. Kristen was always very responsible and on time. She was a life-saver in those moments when we found ourselves not being able to get home at a certain time. We would call her and, without hesitation, she would head over to let Ellie outside, feed her and spend some time interacting with her. I have complete trust in Kristen and will always feel comfortable reaching out to her to take care of my dog.

Because I live with roommates, I will come to your home! I have stayed at many houses while petsitting and I will treat your home just as I would treat my own, with respect and responsibility. I also enjoy plants and would be happy to take care of yours while you're gone :)

- I'd love to understand your pet's routine, dietary needs, and any medical requirements. - Their usual behavior around other animals and strangers for walks. - If there are any movement restrictions due to recent injury.
A typical day
I kick off a typical day with morning walks, ensuring your furry friends get their exercise. Throughout the day, we engage in stimulating games of fetch and puzzle toys. Fun and cuddles are always on the agenda!
