Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their own home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, walks or potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.

Information Kristen W. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know the pet’s daily routine, feeding schedule, and any medical needs or allergies. I also like to know how the pet behaves around new people, children, or other animals. Knowing their favorite toys, activities, and walking schedule helps me keep them comfortable and happy. I also ask about any fears, special behaviors, or training rules so I can care for the pet the same way their owner does.

A typical day

I will take the dogs on walks around the neighborhood. We will play fun games like fetch and tug-of-war. I will give them toys and playtime to keep them active. I will spend time cuddling and giving them attention I will make sure they get exercise and have fun. For cats, I will play with toys like feather wands and laser pointers. I will also give pets quiet time to relax and feel comfortable.

Trusted, Loving Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, including caring for six dogs at once. I’ve owned dogs my entire life, so understanding their needs, personalities, and routines comes naturally to me. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness
