Kritter care is my specialty!
Pet care experience
I have a Bachelors Degree in Biology (currently working on my Masters) and have experience working as a Veterinary Technician! I also have experience in animal training and handeling some exotics such as birds! You can feel safe knowing your pets are in fun, loving, and responsible hands when in my care! :) I am capable of giving medications and upholding any special needs requests. I thoroughly enjoy being outdoors and would love having the honor of taking your pet on fun adventurous trips or hike with your permission! As a Graduate student at UNM attention to detail and flexible scheduling are my specialty! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask! I look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies soon! Thanks Kritter (*>
Reviews
I really struck gold with Kristen! Hardworking, excellent communication, and very knowledgeable! She cared for my birds extremely well while I was out of state. I can't sing high enough praises for her.
Kristen is the person you are going to want to take care of your animals. She stayed at my place with our very young and rambunctious pit mix. It was a week long stay. If anything came up that Kristen needed or had questions on she messaged right away to see if it was ok. I got plenty of pictures and video so I was at ease with the decision I made. I will definitely be using Kristen in the future if her schedule will allow.
Kristen is an amazing doggie/house sitter! We had the nicest visit during our meet and greet! She is sweet and smart and interesting to talk with. We felt completely comfortable with her right away and knew that our four "kids" would too, as she clearly loves animals. And we were right! One of our dogs is a little squirrely about strangers, but Kristen was extremely patient with her until our kiddo felt comfortable and warmed up. Another of our girls requires medication and special food prep that is different from the other three, so we had to leave a ton of instructions. Mealtime is usually an ordeal under the best of circumstances, getting everyone to stick to their own bowl, but Kristen handled it with no problem. She is a great communicator, sending frequent updates, pictures and even videos, and she replies to texts almost instantly! To say that everything was fine is an understatement -- when we got home, not only were the kids fine and happy, the house was even tidier than we left it! In short, I guess the most succinct way to sum up this review is that you couldn't find a more responsible pet/house sitter than Kristen, but more than that, I doubt that you could find anyone nicer either. We consider her to be a new friend!
We are so glad to have Kristen in our neighborhood. She is responsible and good at communication. She is confident and patient with older dogs. We have already scheduled another walk. We wholeheartedly recommend her. Thanks, Kristen!
