Pet care experience

Happy to put u & your pet at ease

I'm especially good with playing fetch, giving treats and cuddling. Because I've lived with dogs from a young age, I've gotten to know a lot of different personalities and how to handle and approach those dogs. I've NEVER met a dog I was afraid of; I have been around aggressive, timid, clingy, and sick dogs so I know how to handle a majority of problems and non-problems. I've taken care of neighbors’ dogs since the age of 12 and frequently take care of my friend's and family's dogs when they go out of town. I've always had multiple dogs growing up as a child with the occasional cat, bunny or hamster on the side. If you ask my family and friends to tell you one thing I love the most in the world, the answer will always be dogs. The most important thing I want you to get away from reading about me is that I will love and take care of your dog as if they're my own! Dogs are allowed on the furniture in my house and can sleep in my bed at night, I have a ton of toys, bowls, and dog beds. I feed separately and if I leave to run errands or get dinner, I always separate new dogs so there are not any troubles and I have nanny cameras up so that I can keep watch while I am away. As always, I can accommodate in any way that you would prefer!

Kristen did a wonderful job taking care of my two standards poodles and housesitting. She arrived on time and communicated daily with pictures and notes. The house was in good order when I got home. I highly recommend her!

Great sitter on short notice. Gave regular updates and played with the pups so much she wore them out.

Schedule

I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your needs. I’m available morning, noon, and night and I o oh need to work around some meetings I have here and there but 30 minutes to an hour or drop in visits and dog walks work perfectly for my schedule!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kristen can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
If you can please fill out your dogs profile before booking, that way I can make sure I’ll have all the information I need, I would greatly appreciate that. I need to know your dogs feeding schedule, how they interact with other dogs, what kind of toys are best for them, where they normally sleep, if they have any quirks I need to be aware of, if they have any food allergies, I’d they take any medication that I will need to administer.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
