You can count on me to follow your specific instructions, maintain your pet's routine, and provide regular updates on their well-being. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I will go above and beyond to ensure they feel secure and loved in your absence. 🏡 Services Offered 🏡 - Dog walking and exercise - Feeding and medication administration - Playtime and socialization - Overnight pet sitting - Home visits and check-ins - Basic grooming (brushing, ear cleaning, etc.) - Waste removal and litter box cleaning - Customized care plans tailored to your pet's specific needs

Awesome! Couldn’t be happier. She was even able to stay an extra day when our flight was canceled. She took fantastic care of our dog and our home and I would hire her again anytime. So fortunate we found her.

Kristen was great! My girls loved her and her little Maltese. She was great about sending me pictures of my dogs during the stay. I would definitely recommend Kristen to anybody looking for art sitter in the Sedona area!

I have used Kristen’s services on three separate occasions while traveling. Each time she sent frequent updates as to how they were doing along with pictures, too. She always does a fabulous job and I highly recommend her!!!
