Safety, trust & environment

I currently have 2 senior cats (Ollie & Georgie) who are not particularly fond of other pets in their space so I would lean towards caring for pets in your home or taking them for walks. Where ever I am I respect the property and would follow any suggestions or guidance you provide. I will treat your pets and property as if it was my own.

Information Kristen H. would like to know about your pet

I want to know anything you believe I should know. Aside from the normal feeding and activity schedule - do they have allergies, how do they interact with other animals, do they return when called especially when playing fetch?

A typical day

I like to meet the dog first and tailor our activities to their needs and preferences. But walks, fetch and other physical and mental games are my go to’s..

Fun, reliable, & loving pet sitter

Pet care experience

As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the special bond we share with our pets. Growing up with both cats and dogs, and having been a dedicated cat owner for the past 30 years, my life has always been enriched by furry companions. I know firsthand the mix of excitement and worry that comes with leaving your beloved pets when you travel, as I feel it every time I'm away from my own. Because of this, I've come to rely on and deeply appreciate the services of amazing pet sitters on Rover, and I've loved the comfort they have provided me. I would now love the opportunity to offer that same peace of mind to you. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care that allows your pets to feel safe and loved in their own environment, giving you the freedom to travel without a single worry. I currently take care of my sisters 4 dogs when she is traveling but would want to get to know a pack larger than 2 before agreeing to care for them multiple days to make sure they are comfortable with me and I am able to manage all of their needs.

Kristen is amazing. She stopped by my house a few times to get to know one of Boston Terriers who is a little reactive and takes a while to get comfortable with stranger. She took good care of my babies and provided updates and pictures of the dogs. I highly recommend her.

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.
