Safety, trust & environment

I want your pets to be most comfortable in their own space(: I love playing with them, and giving them all the love and affection they deserve, while also keeping a tidy house for the owner. I have absolutely no problem doing extra things like sweeping, cleaning up, washing sheets &/or dogbedding, watering plants, getting mail, etc! ❤️

Information Kristen R. would like to know about your pet

Has he/she had any history with agression/biting? Are they good with other animals? Are they potty trained? Do they have any escape-artist habits? Do they have any dangerous quirks, like eating small objects? (ie. socks, trash, etc).

A typical day

I love to take them on walks, explore the neighborhood, roughhouse in the backyard, and have sweet, cozy cuddle sessions while enjoying a good movie🐱🥰❤️🐶

Pet care experience

Hello & welcome to my page! 👋🏻😄 I'm Kristen! I have been working for Rover since 2019 and I love it more and more everyday! 🥰 Serving and taking care of others (human and animals alike) has been my passion ever since I was a kid. My family engulfed me in a childhood filled with every species; dogs, cats, chickens, donkeys, pigs, and birds!🐶🐱🐔🐷🐦🫏 as I grew older, my love grew as well! ❤️ I will care for your pets as though they were my own!

Kristen was great as usual. She always treats our cats well and it’s nice having someone we trust to grab our mail, etc. while we’re away

Kristen did a wonderful job of taking care of the pets and the house. She communicated daily and sent pictures of the animals.

Kristen did a great job taking care of Sebastian while I was out of town. He enjoyed their walks. Kristen cleaned up after herself and my house was clean when I got home. Thank you Kristen for taking care of Sebastian.
