Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to care for your pet(s) in your home, where they are most comfortable. Depending on what you’re looking for, I can stay there with them full-time, spend most of the day there but not stay overnight, drop in, and/or bring them to my apartment. I live right on Sloan’s lake and walk around it most days, whether I have dogs with me or not. But it’s a lot more fun with dogs. If your pets are at my apartment, I’ll give you the opportunity to decide if you want company for them. If you want them to have friends, I’ll keep myself listed as “available” and run any potential other pets by you, giving you total approval/veto power. Or if your bubs are happier alone, I’ll accommodate that just as easily. (I also want to say that privacy is very important to me, after growing up in a situation without it. Like, I won’t open drawers you don’t specifically instruct me to open, unless it’s an emergency, in which case I’ll still feel guilty about it. I know most people aren’t concerned about that the way I am, but if you are, then boy howdy am I your girl.)

Information Kristen G. would like to know about your pet

Send me a message if your pets have any special needs that you would like to discuss before booking, or if you have any other questions. I want to make this work!

A typical day

I love exploring neighborhoods and have endless patience to let your pups sniff around. I’m also a runner if that’s what they want! And I’ve never gotten tired of throwing balls for dogs and I’m not about to start now.

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs of all ages and sizes since I was in middle school. I was never allowed to have a dog as a kid, and I started making up for lost time as soon as possible, walking my neighbors’ dogs for free because I just wanted to hang out with them. As I got older, the neighbors referred me to their friends for real pet sitting jobs. I’ve been taking care of other people’s animals in some capacity (everything from spare evenings to full time) ever since. I am a (human) nursing student comfortable administering all forms of medications.

Kristen was amazing with our 4 month old puppy as always! Luna loves when she comes to visit, and we know she’s in great hands. Our puppy has a lot of energy and is a lot of work, so we appreciate Kristen for always keeping her and our roommates dog safe and happy. We will continue to request Kristen many more times in the future.

We always love having Kristen come watch our 4 month old puppy. She’s one of the only people that our puppy feels super comfortable with. We know she will follow any instructions that we give her, and we will continue to invite her back many times. We highly recommend Kristen!

Kristen did amazing with our sweet 3.5 month old puppy Luna (and our roommates dog as well!). We know Luna can be a handful, especially since we have so many rules set in place currently to keep her safe. Kristen followed all those rules along with her schedule with no problem, and kept us updated throughout the day. We will absolutely be contacting Kristen again in the future, and can’t wait to hopefully have her back to help with Luna again!
