Safety, trust & environment

I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care or medications. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy, and I provide updates and photos for peace of mind.

Information Kristen P. would like to know about your pet

I ask that you share your pet’s full routine in advance — feeding schedule, medications, mobility aids, and any quirks or triggers. Please leave clear instructions and emergency vet contact info. I recommend a quick meet-and-greet beforehand, especially for senior or special needs pets, so we can go over specific care needs together and make sure I’m fully prepared before you leave.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a calm greeting and a sniff around to settle in. I follow your pet’s usual routine closely — feeding times, medications, and walks stay consistent with what you’d do at home. I build in extra time for slower walks, gentle play, and lots of cuddles, especially for senior or special needs pups. Throughout the day, I send photo updates so you can see your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Before I leave, I make sure everything’s tidy and your pet is settled for the next stretch.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover and dog owner with hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets. I have a dog with mobility needs myself, so I’m especially comfortable with senior pups and special care routines — medications, gentle handling, mobility support, you name it. I’m patient, reliable, and love making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away 💛

Kristen is the best and our dog Aspen loves her! She came thru with last minute dog walking and we’re so thankful!

Kristen was an absolute lifesaver with our high-maintenance senior dogs, giving meds 5 times(!) a day. She exceeded every expectation for our two nights of overnight pet sitting. We received detailed updates and photos regularly, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. The best proof of all? Our dogs were completely relaxed and happy when we walked through the door, just like we barely left. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking Kristen again!

Kristen was super helpful while watching our pup. She gave daily updates and shared photos of how our pup was doing. She has good energy and also understands the needs of a dog. We appreciated having her over!

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.
