Safety, trust & environment

I have a large yard though it is unfenced. For the doggies I can do walks around my neighborhood and will take them outside ever couple hours for potty. When your pet enters my home they enter my family and will be treated as such. My cats get spoiled rotten and I can garentee that will be the same for your lovely critters! If your dog is iffy around cats I do have a multiple story house that can be blocked off in different areas. That way they can stay separate but still have plenty of room to run around.

Information Kristen Y. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences, but I would like to know if the dog is kind towards people and cats. I currently am caring for my 5 cats and I just want to ensure that if the doggos are uncomfortable that I can create a safe environment in my home for both my cats and the dog to coexist separately l.

A typical day

I love playing fetch, tug of war, and I would take the dogs on walks either around the neighborhood or at a park. My neighborhood is perfect for dog walking. I have neighbors that routinely walk their fur babies daily. I also have a big yard that they can go in.

Responsible and hardworking sitter

Pet care experience

I've been around a lot of animals all my life. Currently I take care of two dogs and three cats. I also have taken care of animals like lizards and bunnies. I have a enormous soft spot in my heart for animals and treat them like family. I'm a hardworking, considerate, and friendly person who loves to help out. If the dog needs special attention in any way just let me know and I'll do it. I took a break on here due to a lot of changes in my personal life but I am ready to get back into the swing of things. I no longer offer overnight stay at other locations due to having my animals to take care of, but I now offer boarding! If you have other animals that need looked after just tell me and I'll do it. My prices are also flexible so if it seems like it's a bit pricey I can work with you on it!

Kristen did a great job watching my dog, Reilly. She was good about responding to messages and was able to take a last minute request from me. She also sent status updates with pictures so I knew how he was doing. My house was in the same condition I left it in when I returned. I would highly recommend her as a dog/house sitter.

Kristen is very accommodating and does a wonderful job! You don't have to worry about a thing when you hire Kristen to take care of your fur-baby.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
