Flexible, lovable, & experienced

Pet care experience

I come to you with love in my heart for all animals. A flexible schedule to adapt to your needs. And many years of experience and education with all breeds and kinds of animals! I don’t mind administering medications if necessary, caring for young animals or geriatric. They all deserve to be taken care of! My speciality is taking lots of pictures, keeping you informed and keeping your pet happy! If you may be wondering about the age of some of my reviews… I took some time away from pet sitting due to moving states and no longer being in a position to adequately provide the standard of care I was use to providing my clients. I felt it was best to take a break than to provide subpar service. I hope that answers any questions! :)

Kristen was very responsive and flexible. She followed all the instructions, and I feel confident that my dog was well taken care of. Thanks, Kristen!

Kristen did such a great job with our pets! She was so prompt about sending photos and letting us know how they were doing. Will definitely book with her again 👍👍

One again Kristen was exceptional! She went over and above any expectations I might have had. And my dogs love her!!! She stayed beyond her allotted time to make sure my girls were happy.

Information Kristen K. would like to know about your pet

For dogs if there are any behaviors to watch for like escaping, chewing, or aggression. I don’t mind them I just like to be warned. Or if there are any sensitive spots on your animals they don’t like to be touched on.

A typical day

We will play with toys, go for small walks (dogs), lots of pets and loves, enrichment time with treats, smell enrichment if they are into that (usually dogs are!), and tons of cuddles!
