Travel Nurse who loves animals

Pet care experience

I have been an ER nurse for over 12 years, and travel nurse for the past 5 years. I have seemed to emerse myself while on assignment volunteering at various animal shelters to give and receive much needed love while away from my permanent home. Would love to care for your fur baby as best as you would while you’re gone.

Kristen was exceptional with my dog Bailey and how she treated my home. Bailey was comfortable with Kristen from the first moment she met her at the meet and greet we did a few days prior to the dog sitting. Kristen send me pictures of Bailey so I knew she was in good hands. I would highly recommend Kristen to dog sit at anyone’s home.

Safety, trust & environment

Currently only looking for services out of your home, no boarding or stays at my place. Ideally I would do your same routine as you would, while you are gone.

Information Kristen H. would like to know about your pet

ROUTINES! Just like children, heathy routines without too much disruption keep stress low. It would be nice to know a little about their personality and things they should/should not be doing. I know I had one dog that just loved to chew small plastics, so pens and caps needed to be carefully watched. I would ensure that your fur family is safe and given all the attention needed.

A typical day

I love getting to know my new furry friend by engaging in activities they like. I have had some older dogs that just love to be connected to you while you read, and some energetic dogs that would love nothing more to run and play with a ball indefinitely. I welcome the chance to connect with your family member. My goal is to make time away from you the least stressful.

I will be working 3 nights 7pm- 7am a week at JFK Hosptial. I would love to spend time during my days off taking your dog out to the park or on long walks, or even just reading next to your more inactive dog. I typical love to get a little exercise in the morning hours, after my shift between, 8-10am. I only work three days, and the days I need rest, I am still able to care for your pet with feeding and potty and walking needs. I have generally fostered pups on my assignments but would like to transition to caring for your animal while you’re away.
