Dog and Cat Lover
Pet care experience
I have personally owned cats and dogs for over 15+ years and have experience in taking care of kitties/puppies, sickly, and elderly cats/dogs. I have 6 years as a professional cat sitter through Rover, and have experience with all types of cat personalities! For my professional experience with dogs, I have experience using positive reinforcement (the method used by Pet Smart). I also have 7 years of experience as a semi-professional dog walker (walking my neighbors' dogs). I'm a fairly active individual and if need be I can walk your dog up to 2 hours, run-walk-jog your dog for about 30 minutes, and jog-walk for about 45 minutes (unlike our furry companions I cannot maintain sprints for long periods of time). I would also be willing to walk your dog at any nearby hiking trails. Beyond my cat sitting and dog walking experience, I am currently a graduate student at GWU.
Reviews
Amazing as always! She always has excellent communication and cares for my kitty so well. I can leave her in good hands!
Kristen is the best!!! She goes above and beyond for my kitty!
I always feel so at ease when I’m away and Kristen is watching Fiona. She goes above and beyond and I come home to a relaxed and happy cat every time!
We have used Kristen many times and will do again. Great service and communication!
About Kristen T.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
As I generally cat sit, I try to do everything to keep a safe and healthy environment for them. I do this by cleaning their food and water bowls ever day, make sure their litter is clean everyday, and that the curious cat is not getting into anything they are not supposed to!
Information Kristen T. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to walk one dog at a time so I can give them my undivided attention, but I can walk two small dogs or one small dog and one medium dog at a time. Unfortunately, I can only walk large breed dogs (Akitas, Great Danes, etc) one at a time.
A typical day
I know every pet is unique in there active requirements and would discuss with their owners/ parents what activities would be best for their pets.
Services
Kristen can watch in your home
Availability
I have a fairly flexible schedule, and can generally work with any time requirements requested. In general, I tend to do my visits in the morning or mid afternoon.
