Pet care experience

Our pets hold a piece of our hearts

I have experience sitting for dogs, cats, chickens, ferrets and a handful of other critters. (Please reach out to me in regards to house sitting! I will be with your pet majority of the time unless at my full time job.) I've been around dogs and cats my entire life. I love every breed, every size, every issue they may come along with. I've only had the opportunity to have my own, as an adult, once. I can't wait for the day when I'm out of an apartment and can give ANY dog a proper home with room to run or roam. I’m old have a cat of own by now but I find that I love watching others so much right now that I haven’t pulled the trigger. One day soon though!

Safety, trust & environment

I unfortunately do not have the capability to bring a pet to my home as I live in an apartment. As I said, I look forward to the day when I can provide a home for any type of pet! When I house sit with your pet, I will be with them the majority of the time unless I am at work. They will not spend much time alone at all.

Great house sitting experience with Kristen for our two dogs! She kept us updated with texts and pictures. Our house was very clean and pups were super happy when we came back. Will definitely ask Kristen to house sit again!

Kristen was wonderful! Both the cat and the dog were well taken care of. The house was spotless upon our return. Communication was excellent throughout the entire week. Highly recommend!

Kristen is great! She was accommodating with our schedule and our dogs loved her. She sent photos and clearly took very good care of our girls. Thanks, Kristen!

Kristen was a god send! She loved on my babies and snuggled as much as they wanted. I'll definitely be asking for her again. She left my house spotless as well and took care of mail and garbage without being asked. Thank you!!

Kristen was absolutely phenomenal! She was a lifesaver when bad weather and flight delays kept us from getting back on time and kindly continued visiting and taking care of our babies until we were home. Loved the happy kitty photo updates. Will definitely be booking her again!!

I work Monday-Thursday 7:30 to 5:30 and Friday 7:30 to 11:30 from home 3 of those Fridays. I'm looking to walk your pet or stay with them overnight in their own home. I live in an apartment and bringing them here just isn't a possibility.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kristen can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Any odd or silly behavior is helpful! I've pet sat a few dogs that had little quirks that seemed strange to me and made me reach out to their owner, just to find out its a normal behavior for that animal.
