Pet care experience

Fun, reliable, & loving pet sitter

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.

Pets

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.

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.

Kristen has been awesome with our senior fur babies. We could no longer take them to daycare as their legs were getting weaker but they still needed to go out at least three times a day. Kristen is always on time, makes sure that the babies have their bathroom breaks and that they get their snacks and water. Her communication is wonderful and our dogs love her. We are grateful to have someone that we can count on.

Kristen was referred to me by a family member who had used her to watch their cat. After Kristen stayed at the house and watched our dog, I suggested she check out Rover.com to increase her bookings. She is FANTASTIC! Our dogs were walked, well cared for, and loved on! She sent us pictures regularly, and the house was in perfect condition. She communicated clearly and asked questions when necessary, leaving me with no worries while I was away. Highly recommend.

Schedule

Currently, I am in a period of career transition, which provides me with a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to be incredibly adaptable and available to your pets' specific needs, whether that means multiple visits a day, extended stays, or last-minute requests. I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine, ensuring your furry family members receive the consistent attention and care they deserve.

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?
