I'm a student and homeschooling mom, so I'm flexible on time. I play fetch a couple times a day with my own pets and work on simple commands with rewards. I make sure my pets feel loved and cared for.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs and I will try my best to accommodate them. They will be carefully addressed under my care.

I enjoy playing with my own dogs daily with their toys or outside with a Frisbee or ball. We also enjoy going on walks. These are the same things I can do with pets I watch to help stimulate them and give them exercise.

Pets are Family

Pet care experience

I've helped care for all kinds of animals, from baby chicks to horses since I was a little girl. I had my first dog about 15 years and he was like my baby. I currently have a chihuahua and mixed breed (Italian greyhound/jack Russell). I can care for birds, fish, and reptiles as well. I'll even feed your chickens. I have 4 years of experience fostering puppies and dog sitting as well. I'm flexible on hours. I love to go on walks, play, and make it a fun day! Pets are family and I would care for yours like they were my own. While following any instructions you give, I'll ensure your pet is safe and accommodated at all times.

Kristen is kind, communicative, and doesn’t deviate from loving and caring on your pet. She watched my pup and my gecko for nearly two months as I was coming back from a deployment. She gave me regular updates, troubleshot when she couldn’t get a hold of me, and stayed flexible as I made it home. My pup is on medications and Kristen not only followed the directions, but my pup left her in better shape than she had arrived there! I was extremely thankful for her patience and coordination to make sure my critters were well loved and cared for. Thank you, again!

Kristen did a wonderful job taking care of Pierre. She kept us up to date on his care and status, plus provided excellent photos. I highly recommend Kristen and will use her services again.

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.
