Highlights
Pet care experience
Cuddles, love, and care this way!
I’m a fully remote Triangle native whose first love (after writing, that is ✍🏽) was for animals. I don’t just look after them—I truly care for them like a family member. Being highly empathetic, I provide both safety and comfort as a bare minimum. As such, I can usually tell (and adapt accordingly) when a furry friend needs more space and gentleness to feel more comfortable versus when they’d benefit from more a more assertive approach. Regardless, everything is done with compassion and consideration to ensure both you and your pet(s) feel safe and at ease!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I mirror your pet’s comfort level. If they are very sociable, then I am just as extroverted. On the flip side, if they are a little wary, I do what I can to make them feel at ease and let them know I’m a friend. I will never force your pet to interact with me just to appease my own ego; their comfort and your comfort are my priority. Trusting someone to care for your pet(s) is a big ask and not something I take lightly. I also understand that it won’t always be a good fit, so my only request is that you are transparent about questions/concerns and I will do the same to make sure everyone is comfy and at ease!
Ratings and reviews
Kristena took great care of my little Lilly while I was away for the day. She kept me updated about her drop in visits and sent pictures and video. I would book her again anytime!

Kris is a great dog sitter for Tito and I 🐶 he loves Kris and how she plays with him. She makes sure he is taken care of every time.
I’ve seen firsthand how much Kristena cares for animals through the love and attention she gave her dog, Suki. Suki was always happy, healthy, well-trained, and clearly adored. Kristena is patient, responsible, and attentive in general. I would absolutely trust her to provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment for any pet in her care.

Schedule
I work fully remote, so I am able to be with your pet throughout the day if needed whether that be for potty breaks, walks, playtime, or anything in between!
