Pet care experience

With us, your pet is family!

I love dogs and have had a dog most of my life, growing up and as an adult! I grew up with a smaller dog (Shit Zhu). Currently we have one female Labradoodle; we lost our 15 y.o lab mix in fall of 2025 so Daisy loves having friends to come over to stay! We are an active family and spend a lot of time outside. I have 2 teenage kids age 15 and 17. They are also dog lovers and are very helpful with pet care. If needed, the kids can give your pet space too. I have good awareness of pet behaviors, can read your dog’s comfort level and can provide space as needed. We would love to host your dog at a nurturing and calm environment with plenty of walks!

We booked with Kristin R. for a weekend trip. We made the reservation at the last minute and Kristin was great at accommodating us. Our dog is old with some health problems, along with a finicky appetite. Kristin did a great job dealing with his medications and feeding. She was wonderful at keeping us appraised of his stay with her. I’d be happy to book with her again!

Kristen did a great job watching our dog for the night. She made sure he felt comfortable in her home and kept us updated the entire night on how he was doing!

Kristen is great! She accommodated our last minute need for a sitter, asked all the right questions to ensure she could properly care for Mabel, and sent regular updates, which was so reassuring. We will definitely book with Kristen again.

Otis had a wonderful time with Kristen and Daisy! Kristen was attentive to his needs and I felt completely confident that she had his best interests at heart. I truly appreciate the care she provided and would absolutely recommend her to others

Kristen took amazing care of Stormy while we were away camping. For my first time using Rover I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect. We got daily updates with pictures. The dogs played together like they’ve known each other forever. Kristen will be the first person I reach out to anytime we need someone to take care of Stormy!
