Former vet tech at your service!

Pet care experience

I have 10 years experience as a dog groomer and vet tech. I have a degree in Veterinary Technology. I've since moved on to caring for humans as an ICU RN, but I miss meeting new doggo friends! I can also offer grooming for small dogs as well as nail trims! I have 1 cat and 3 small children. Any interactions are obviously supervised, but for everyone to be safe and happy, pets I care for need to be comfortable around children.

Kristen was our sitter for our first time using Rover and she was wonderful. She read through my small novel of care instructions (lol) and followed them all, no problem. We had daily updates and pictures, and total peace of mind. So glad for her help!

Kristen did an amazing job taking care of my 2 dogs, while they stayed for doggy daycare! She was very friendly and had great communication. My one dog walked in Kristen’s house like she was right at home. My other dog is more skittish/nervous and warmed up to her pretty quickly, which is unusual! Kristen also groomed my dog during her stay, and she looked amazing! I would highly recommend her for doggy daycare and grooming!

Kristen was awesome! The communication was fantastic leading up to and during Henry’s stay with her. She has a house with a yard for Henry to do his business easily; she also played with him but he also felt comfortable chilling out on the couch. We would highly recommend Kristen, and will be using her again for Henry!

I have lots of experience handling dogs of all sizes and cats of all attitudes. Even if your pet is a little spicy, there's a good chance we can still get along. All dogs need to be crate trained for sleeping at night and when we step out during the day
