Pet care experience

Your Pet's New Favorite Human

Hi, I'm Kristen, a healthcare professional with over 20 years in the pharmacy/hospital industry. Animals have always been a large part of my life! I've previously had dogs, cats, birds, and fish. Friends know me for stopping to say hello to every dog I pass. They also know that whenever they are in need of a pet-sitter, whether it's for an extended stay or just a quick walk, I'm always available and willing. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, medication administration or someone to keep them company while you are away on vacation, I will care for them as if they were my own. I'll make sure to keep you fully updated with photos, videos and updates during my visits so you can be confident that your loved ones are in great hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Safety, trust & environment

If I were caring for my own pet, my priority would be providing a safe, loving, and consistent environment. I take the same approach when caring for someone else's pet. I follow their established routines, make sure they receive plenty of attention and exercise, and pay close attention to any changes in behavior or health. I know pets are family members, and I treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

I cannot recommend Kristen highly enough as a dog walker and pet sitter. She has cared for my dog on numerous occasions, including week-long stays while I was traveling, and I have always felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and genuinely loves animals. She makes sure my dog gets plenty of exercise through long walks, lots of playtime, and constant attention. It’s clear that she treats every pet as if they were her own. What stands out most is the peace of mind she gives me. I never have to worry when I’m away because I know my dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. My dog absolutely adores her, which says everything. Anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog walker or pet sitter would be lucky to have her.
