About Kristen M.

Safety, trust & environment
I don’t sit pets in my home, but I’m all about giving your pet the best care in their own familiar surroundings. With experience caring for all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I can easily adjust to meet your pet’s unique needs. Whether it's keeping up with an energetic pup or giving extra care to a senior dog, I make sure every pet feels loved and comfortable. I provide plenty of playtime, keep their water and food refreshed, and always take care of waste pick-up. My goal is to ensure your pet has a fun, stress-free experience while you're away, no matter their energy level!
Information Kristen M. would like to know about your pet
To help me provide the best care possible, please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviors, or routines I should be aware of. This can include things like anxiety triggers, reactivity to other dogs or people, or anything that helps them feel more comfortable during walks or visits. Also, please share if your dog requires any medication, has specific health concerns, or needs extra care such as dietary instructions, mobility support, or preferred activities. The more I know, the better I can ensure a safe, happy, and stress-free!
A typical day
Throughout the day depending on if it’s a Drop-in Vistit or taking your furbaby out for a walk. I love to include a variety of fun and engaging activities based on each dog’s age, size, and energy level. Active dogs might enjoy longer walks or at a faster pace, for smaller furbabies games of fetch inside or fenced yard during a drop in visit or post walk, while older dogs benefit from gentle strolls, enrichment “sniffaris,” and calm companionship. Drop-in visits can also include potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles, ensuring every pup stays happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

Pet care experience
What sets me apart from other sitters is my passion for dogs and the wide range of experience I bring to the table! Growing up with a family dog and caring for my own four dogs has given me a deep understanding of how to meet the needs of different personalities and breeds. Plus, my time working at a dog daycare has helped me develop great skills in handling dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels in both group and individual settings. I’ve also had the pleasure of watching my neighbors’ dogs while they’re away, which has helped me become super adaptable to each dog’s routine. Whether it’s providing playtime for energetic pups, giving extra love and care to senior dogs, or helping with training young dogs, I’m always eager to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved in my care. I truly believe every dog is unique, and I strive to make each experience enjoyable and stress-free for both the dogs and their owners!
