Family Beyond Species 🐾

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Kristen and I am a Nursing student! This is my second part-time job and I cannot think of anything better than pet sitting! Ever since I was a kid, i've been surrounded by a wide variety of pets. My family owned all kinds of animals; from dogs, cats, chickens, donkeys, pigs, and birds! As time progressed and I got older, taking care of these babies soon became my responsibility as well. When I was about 10 years old, I started helping my mother, grandmother, and great aunt tend to the animals at the vet they worked at! My family engulfed me in a childhood filled with almost every species and as I grew older, my love grew as well! I can definitely say I have a lot of experience and I know that our pets are pretty much like our children; I can guarantee I'll treat your fur-babies as if they were my own! Side Notes: 1) I do ask for gas reimbursement, which I price based on mileage. 2) I leave my availability open because it does not let me select certain hours of the day that I am unavailable. Please message me with any date requests and I will get back with you right away!

Kristen took great care of our two large dogs! She kept me updated the entire time with lots of pictures. She has a busy work/school schedule, but was very accommodating to our dogs needs and made sure to be at our house with them during all her breaks. Our dogs loved having her stay with them

Kristen was great! She is very sweet and our cats enjoyed when she stopped by to feed and play with them. Great communication and photo updates.

Kristie has been the best pet sitter I had so far. She is thorough, posts pictures, and some how my normally scared kitties liked her! I had peace of mind when away... Thank you Kristie!!

Kristen was amazing with my cat! She is thorough, asks great questions, takes lots of pictures, and updates you throughout the experience. Could not recommend her more!

Safety, trust & environment

I want the babies 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 and cleaning up, washing dogbedding and stuff, 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 go on walks, go to the dog park, take rides together, or even just play in the backyard or inside for a few hrs!
