Highlights
Pet care experience
Have your pup come stay with us!
I’ve had (and loved) pets of all kinds my whole life. I’ve always especially felt a connection to dogs, and have a great deal of experience with them. I worked in dog grooming while getting my degree in biology at the University of Washington, where I worked will all different breeds and ages of dogs. I’m used to working with the smallest to largest breeds, in addition to young puppies to seniors who require extra care and medications. I’ve done extensive pet sitting for animals of all kinds over the years. I’ve volunteered and fostered for the humane society, helping animals too young or sick for adoption grow and get well. I also worked on socialization of shelter animals, helping to boost their chances of adoption.

Ratings and reviews
An Absolute Gem—Our Go-To Choice! This is our fourth time using Kristen, and we truly feel like we hit the jackpot. Leaving your fur babies behind is never easy, but Kristen provides complete peace of mind. Every single time we leave our pups with her, I know they are getting top-tier care and endless love.Her communication is flawless. She sends regular daily updates and adorable pictures, so we always feel connected. It is incredibly obvious how much she genuinely cares about them. It is a total family affair—even her daughter asks about our pups! If you want a sitter who will treat your dogs like her own family, Kristen is the absolute best choice. We cannot recommend her enough!
Kristen and her family took wonderful care of my pup! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and progress reports. He was clearly thriving when we picked him up nearly two weeks later. I know that he became another member of the family and was truly loved while we were gone. I'm so happy to have found Kristen and have already booked her again for this summer.
Kristen really helped me out by being willing to take Gracie on short notice after my previously booked site has to cancel because my dog wasn't feeling well. This was our first time using Kristen and we were very impressed with the level of care and accommodation given to meet Gracie's special needs at this time. She ensured that Gracie didn't get ahold of any but her prescribed special food, even though she had her own and her parents' dog around. Gracie was happy and doing well when we picked her up.
Kristen is absolutely amazing! Despite our flight being delayed due to crazy weather and TSA shortages, she was incredibly kind and accommodating. It’s clear my boys are so much happier staying with her and her family, which gives us total peace of mind and allows us to truly enjoy our trips. We are so grateful for everything she does—highly recommend!
Wonderful, as always
Kristen helped us last minute when we had a family emergency and we are so very grateful! Gobi was well taken care of again!

Schedule
I currently am a stay-at-home mom with one son in high school and a daughter in pre-school. I have ample time to tailor my day to your dog’s needs!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a very large fully fenced backyard for your pup to roam, plus one friendly dog of my own. Your dog would have the run of most of the house, and i can adjust things to your preferences/ the pup’s needs. Our family enjoys walks, and love the nearby dog park and hiking trails!
Pets
A typical day
I’m a stay at home home, so I have time to spend with your dog during the day. I will listen to what your dog’s normal routine looks like and add some extra walks and playtime. I want your pup to have a fun vacation while you are away!
