Highlights
Pet care experience
Active walker for your active dogs!
I’ve had dogs all my life, and helped two of my dogs cross over the rainbow bridge when they got cancer. I have basic experience with injections and first aid for dogs and cats. I love all dogs of all sizes! Even the high maintenance ones! I just moved here from Washington DC where I did part time dog overnights. I also currently live in The Grand community!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kristen exceeded all expectations! Wouldn’t hesitate to hire again…
We had a fantastic experience with Kristen! She sent us daily updates with photos and we even joked that some of her photos were frame worthy! She was great with communication and follow up, I never had to reach out to her. We will absolutely be booking Kristen in the future!!
I can't praise Kristen enough! I have a rescue dog who was literally trapped in the Tonto National Forest 3 months ago and is extremely fearful and timid, along with being a flight risk. Kristen is the only sitter we interviewed who knew right away how to skillfully handle and interact with Lavender. Not only that but she arrived timely and adhered to Lavender's schedule perfectly. She is amazing and I highly recommend her!
Kristen is one of the most caring and responsible people I know. She's has grown up with family dogs her entire life and has developed an incredible bond with them. She is naturally attentive, patient, and loving, and animals truly respond to her calm and caring nature. I've seen firsthand how attentive and gentle she is, always making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. She's dependable, communicates clearly, and goes the extra mile to ensure both pets and owners feel at ease. Any pet would be lucky to be in her loving care.

Schedule
I teach remotely three days a week, which allows me to be home and present throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I already prioritize daily walks and staying active (I aim for over 10,000 steps each day). I’m happy to have your dog as my walking companion and include them in my structured, consistent schedule. Your pet will not be left alone for long periods and will receive steady attention, exercise, and companionship.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide reliable, attentive dog sitting and overnight care in a calm, safe environment. I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and lots of affection—so they feel secure while you’re away. I’m experienced with different temperaments and prioritize clear communication, including daily updates and photos, so you always know your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.
