Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced pet care!
Hello! I'm available for dog walking and drop-in pet care and am local to the Salem, MA area. My services include walks, playtime, potty breaks, food and water refills, and giving your pup the care they need. I’ve been caring for dogs for years — from growing up with a family dog (a shih-tzu!) to providing pet care for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve watched energetic dogs such as aussies, golden retrievers, doodles, and smaller dogs, too! My experience includes both overnight stays and daily drop-in visits, where I’ve helped with everything from feeding and walking to keeping pets company and active. I’m happy to connect!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I approach every dog in a gentle and enthusiastic manner and believe it's important to listen to pet owners about any specific behavioral issues so I can adjust my approach accordingly.
Ratings and reviews
Thanks so much for taking care of my boy!
Kristen is super responsive, friendly, and was great with Orion. Thank you so much!
Another good walk.
Another great outing for them on a windy, cold night
Another great walk
Everything went great. Easy drop off and pick up, and was already familiar with my usual route.
