Hello, Austin! ☀️ **COVID-19 Vaccinated & all boosters up to date!** 💛About me: Hi, my name is Kristen! Since I was a little girl, I've grown up around dogs. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! Every dog should have a home and be well taken care of, and I can do that. I graduated from the University of Washington in the Environmental Science program, so taking care of the planet and its creatures is very important to me. Since graduating, I have participated in wildlife rehabilitation programs and military wildlife internships. References are available upon request. I am very active and love going on walks, runs, or just exploring! I take my pups everywhere with me; whether it's a picnic in the park or a trip to the beach. My Subaru and I can take your pup anywhere they wish to go! 🏠 🐶🐱House-Sitting & Drop-In Visit I understand the best and most comfortable place for your pet is in their home. That’s where they feel safe and trust their surroundings. With that in mind, I am happy to take care of your pets at your residence. Drop-In visits are best if you’re working and need walks and potty breaks for your pets! I can be there anywhere from every 2 hours or every 4-6 hours. House-sitting is ideal for vacations or long departures! This will require me to stay in your home and watch over your pets and residence. I closely follow sleeping diets and eating habits, medication administration, and exercise schedules to the tee. Similarly, all laundry, dishes, plants, trash, lights, security systems, and standard maintenance will be completed at the owner’s request. I will leave your home in better shape than I found it! 🧼🔑 🎾 Walks If your pet needs daily activity, I’m your girl! I am happy to take them to the beach, the park, or even for a spin around your neighborhood. Let me know their typical route or the preferred exercise method, and I’ll make it happen! 🤝 Meet & Greet The meet & greet is a very important part of the Rover booking process. This allows the sitter and the owner to meet in person and offers the pets a chance to get comfortable with the sitter. Most meet & greets happen at the owner’s home where the pet is most comfortable, making it a bit easier to greet a stranger. If this does not work for you, any public park will do! This is also a great opportunity to complete house tours, go over diet and feeding schedules, and review medication administration. 🐠🐥🦜 Additional Animals If you have additional animals (aquatic, farm, exotic) that require care, please let me know! I will also be happy to provide comfort and care to these pets. 🌡💊 Medication I am experienced and comfortable administering medication for pets (eyes, ears, topical, subcutaneous injections, and oral medication). I do not charge for this treatment, as it is vital to their well-being. ☎️ Contact After the meet & greet, I will supply my cell number in case of any emergency or lack of signal. The Rover numbers given can sometimes lag in specific areas of the country. This also allows me to send you videos if requested. 🔒 Privacy All names, addresses, phone numbers, emergent contacts, and home security information will remain confidential during and after the visit. All photos of pets or homes will be sent directly to the owner. Photos of pets are displayed on my Rover account with the owner's permission.
