Loving Pet Care in Their Own Home

Need a pet sitter who’s equal parts playful and responsible? Hi, that’s me! I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to reptiles and exotics, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I truly love animals, and I’ll make sure your pet(s) feel happy, safe, and loved while I’m with them.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m very cautious about entering homes when I go to pet sit, to prevent the pet’s escape. Never have had that happen though! I also like to check gates before letting them out in a fenced back yard, to make sure it hasn't blown open or been left open by a gardener or pool cleaner, etc. If walking a dog(s), I prefer to keep them away from other dogs for their own safety.

Kristie was wonderfully nurturing and playful with our cutie cat. We highly recommend her for the love and care that she provides.

Kristie is an Angel! This was first time leaving our fur babies at home with a sitter, they were always vet boarded previously, and we couldn't be happier with Kristin's care and attention. The pictures and texts daily she sent let us know they were cared for, and we returned home to very happy kisses. Thanks so much!

Schedule

I’m retired, so I have a flexible schedule and am available pretty much any time and any day, and often available at the last minute. I'm available for multiple visits per day, or even staying in your home while you’re away if that makes your pet(s) more comfortable.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kristie can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
If I take a dog on a walk, I like to know how they are with other dogs or people. That way I’ll know whether I should steer clear of the other dog and /or people to prevent any confrontations.
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.
