Safety, trust & environment

My home is designed with pets in mind — safe, calm, and full of love. I live in a clean, cozy space where cats and pups can explore, nap, and get comfy. I’m mindful of every detail, from secure doors and windows to quiet corners for shy or senior pets. My own two friendly, well-behaved cats are used to sharing their space and love making new friends, but I can easily provide separation if your pet prefers solo time. I follow feeding and medication schedules carefully and keep a close eye on every guest’s comfort and well-being. You can expect regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and cared for as if they were my own.

Information Kristen M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your fur baby has any special needs that I can attend to! I provide pet beds and toys, you provide the cuteness and snacks!

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy and active with walks, fetch, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I tailor activities to their personality, making sure every tail wags and every purr is earned!

Pet care experience

I care for one pet family at a time, giving your fur kiddos undivided attention! There’s nothing better than earning the trust of a shy pet, seeing a tail wag or a making a pup smile, and knowing they feel safe and loved while their person is away. A mutual stress relief, hanging with your pet is the best part of my day!

Kristen once again was a fabulous sitter for my dog Juno. She was extremely accommodating to Juno’s needs and gave me daily updates, including tons of cute pictures!

This was Juno’s second stay with Kristen and everything was great! Kristen was super responsive and sent plenty of pictures. Juno was happy and relaxed when I picked her up at the end of the stay.

Kristen took great care of our Josie. She was very patient with her and made her feel right at home! She was very communicative and sent frequent updates. We will definitely have Kristen watch our dog again!
