I do my best to work my schedule around the pet parent's normal day to day. I personally don't like to leave pets unattended for more than 5 hours maximum. My dog will also be with me whenever I need to leave the pet house.

Depending on what the pet parents usually do in their daily routines, I do my best to keep that going for the pet's circadian rhythm.

Information Kristen N. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to have my dog meet your dog/pets before booking anything to make sure we all get along first. Safety is definitely my top priority.

A typical day

My coworker dog, Zoey, is really good about helping me keep the other pets going as far as fetch, other toy play, bathroom breaks and walks if needed.

Pet care experience

Whenever I pet/house sit, I make sure everything is exactly how you left it, if not better! However, due to recent schedule changes, I'm only able to pet sit if my dog can tag along with me (my coworker, if you will). She's an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix, so she's very smart and energetic. When meeting new animals, she may bark a bit at first, but will soon warm up to them, so much to where I'll most likely send pics of them playing! She does like her personal space at first, but is nice to other dogs as long as they're nice to her as well. She will most likely stay right next to me the whole time, as she is also my emotional support animal. Sometimes she'll even help me heard the other pets inside/outside or keep them entertained, with squeaky toys especially! I'll make sure all pets have food, water and medications, as well as water any plants that may need it while you're away, and can send plenty pictures and updates. I've lived with pets all my life and love meeting new ones!

I was super nervous leaving my two senior special needs pugs for the first time. Kristen put my mind at ease! My pooches had a fantastic, safe, fun time. Communication was great. Definitely recommend!

Kristen and Zoey did a great job taking care of our pups , cat and house in general. She sent lots of pictures , which eased my mind while I was away. I came home to a clean house, which was nice too.

Kristen did a great job taking care of all our many dogs and cats! Some have special medical needs, so for our house it’s a pretty long and detailed list for her to manage. Kristen handled it all in stride. Any questions we had were always answered promptly! Plus, she sent us regular updates – and of course pictures of how they were all doing. This made us feel at ease while we were away for a good part of 2 weeks!

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.
