Pet care experience

Experienced & Loving Care!

Hi, I’m Kristen! My husband, Sam, and I are dedicated caretakers for all kinds of pups! I have experience as a Rover sitter in multiple states, and together we’ve fostered numerous dogs through a local adoption agency in Fort Collins, including young puppies and senior dogs with various medical needs. Our flexible work schedules allow us to provide in-home dog daycare and overnight care, complete with a fenced yard and plenty of playtime with our 2-year-old cattle dog mix, Maple. Your dogs will feel right at home with us! We offer meet-and-greets at our home to ensure that your dog and ours get along well. We also take the time to understand your preferences for your furry friend, so you can feel confident leaving them in our trusted care.

Kristen and her family were amazing with our dog! He was welcomed as a part of the family for the weekend, just what we hoped as first time Rover users.

Did amazing with my little girl, very responsive and gave plenty of updates, even went the extra mile to help with some skin irritation she has. I highly recommend and will gladly reach out again when I need someone to watch her in the future.

Kristen was great! She was very communicative before and during the booking and my pup was very happy and tired when we got back. Would definitely book again!

Safety, trust & environment

When dog-sitting in our home, we ensure the dog's routine is maintained by sticking to their feeding and walking schedule. We allow our dog free roam in and out of the fenced-in backyard and can do the same for the visiting dog or limit their time based on their needs. We provide plenty of playtime and mental stimulation, keep their environment safe, and monitor their behavior for any signs of stress. Regular bathroom breaks and lots of affection help them feel comfortable and secure in our home.

Pets

A typical day

Our dog is obsessed with fetch, so we play a lot in the backyard and take them for walks at Rossborough Park nearby. We also have a variety of toys for supervised play, and there are always cozy couch snuggles to enjoy. We love making Kong enrichment toys with homemade all-natural ingredients to keep them engaged and happy!
