Pet care experience
Animal Lover open for Pet Services
Hi there! My name is Kristen and I’m a big animal lover looking to help you with your animal care. I've owned two dogs of my own for 13 years and have also grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets as well (pet-sitting, walking, feeding, bathing, etc). I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs requiring medication. I'm currently available for: pet-sitting, house-sitting, doggy day care, drop-in visits as well as vet drop off and pick up.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Lovely meeting Kristen she made things very easy, flexible with the time. I'm a little bit nervous leaving my baby with new people, she really took the time to understand all his quirks and needs. He was in good hands cuddling the night with Kristen as I got picture updates. Would definitely recommend! :)
Kirsten, proved to be a remarkably calm and caring pet sitter for my dog who is super anxious and nervous with new environments/ people. This was my first time leaving Indie with a stranger. Kirsten took the time to meet us beforehand which helped ease our nerves, providing a reassuring opportunity to connect before entrusting her with the care of Indie. It didn’t take long for Indie to settle right in. We would recommend Kirsten as a dog sitter, she has a genuine love for animals.
Kristen took good care of my cat while I was away, I would love to hire her again next time.
Kristen did a great job with our cat Callie while we were on vacation! Callie was happy and healthy when we got home. Kristen was great with communication, reliable, punctual and was able to accommodate an additional last minute visit. I absolutely recommend her and definitely will be using her services again. Thank you Kristen for giving us peace of mind while we were away!
Kristen was a great pet sitter and I trusted her completely to take care of my dog. The love she has for animals makes her a wonderful caregiver to your fur babies.
Kristen looked after 2 of my family dogs. She was happy to provide updates, send pictures and was very accommodating of our drop off/pick up times. Would recommend.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a family-friendly area with lots of green space, parks and trails nearby for daily walks and exercise as needed for your pups.
A typical day
A typical day would include walks to a dog park or trail so your dog can explore the outdoors and get lots of exercise. I have dog parks and trails nearby my place that I often take my own dog to. After a long walk/time outside for exercise, we'll come back to my place for water (and food, if this is feeding time) and enjoy some cuddles and playtime.
