Pet care experience

Let me love your pets! 🥰

I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I grew up in a house full of pets and they have always had a special place in my heart. I enjoy caring for animals, going on walks, having play time, and can’t get enough furry cuddles! I work from my home full time as an artist and have a very open schedule. I’m happy to work around your needs and am available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Before taking care of your pet, I’ll get as much information as needed to make sure I can provide the best care possible. I’ll do everything I can to make sure you have nothing to worry about when you’re away! I will go the extra mile to ensure that your pet will stay safe and happy 😊

Kristen is the best. I have a smaller 15 pound dog who loves to sit in Kristen’s window, likes walks and to snuggle on a couch. She does all that with Murphy and he adjusts well with her. She is who I always choose.

Kristen is simply the best for my 15 pound bichapoo. Murphy goes right to her. I forgot my kibble for Murphy (left it on the counter) Kristen had small dog Kibble to cover my mistake. Love her. So does Murphy

Kristin was fantastic with little Steven! She watched him for a trial night to see if they’d be a good fit for a longer stay, and she was so kind and attentive. She sent plenty of pictures, kept me updated, and Steven took to her right away. I feel so much better knowing he’ll be in great hands when he stays with her again. Highly recommend!

Excellent, as always! Loves on our dog as if she’s her own. My dog is excited about staying with her and enjoys playing with her toys and looking out the windows.
