Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet's New Best Friend!
*Please note I have a 15lb Bichon Frisée that accompanies me. He is fully vaccinated, neutered, and friendly with other dogs and cats.* I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My approach focuses on creating a comfortable and loving environment, ensuring that each pet feels safe and happy while their owner is away. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to connect with pets which allows me to provide tailored care. Additionally, I am familiar with training puppies, helping them learn basic commands and good manners through positive reinforcement techniques. I also have experience caring for senior pets, ensuring they receive the extra attention and comfort they need during their golden years. I am committed to reliable service and good communication, I strive to offer pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. Your pets will receive the love and care they deserve!

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in their home during visits, walks, or overnight stays, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment tailored to each pet's needs. I follow the owner’s guidelines regarding feeding, routines, and any special care instructions, ensuring that pets feel at ease in their familiar surroundings. I ensure that all doors and gates are secure to prevent any escapes and monitor pets closely at all times. I will keep your space tidy and follow any house rules. I also provide regular updates and photos, keeping you connected and informed about your pets’ well-being.
Ratings and reviews
Kristie is terrific!! Our dog loved her and her dog. Reliable and left our home spotless.
Will always trust Kristie with my furkids!!
Kristie was very attentive for Bagels! Although she's a cat, she has pretty high-needs (play and snuggles.) Kristie arrived and stayed for the duration of the bookings and then some. We came home to a tidy place and a happy cat! Thank you so much Kristie. I would not hesitate to book or recommend her services to anyone! Next time Bagel's needs a sitter, I hope we can book again!
Kristie took wonderful care of our dog Murphy while we were away. She kept us consistently updated with photos and we came home to a very happy dog and clean house! We are very happy to have found Kristie to care for Murphy while we are away :)
We are so grateful to have found Kristie! She took great care of our two dogs and provided updates throughout our time away! Communication was easy, the house was immaculate when we got back and our pups were happy! It was our first time having a caretaker care for our dogs in our home and was a great experience thanks to Kristie. We will definitely be asking her to come sit Talie and Odie again.
Took excellent care of my girls!

Schedule
I currently have a flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate various pet care needs, whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to offering them personalized attention and support whenever you need it.

- ROUTINE: Understanding your pet's daily routine, including feeding times, walking schedules, and any specific activities or habits, helps me maintain consistency and comfort for them. DIETARY NEEDS: Any dietary restrictions, allergies, or preferences should be communicated to ensure I provide the right food and treats. BEHAVIOUR: Knowing about your pet's temperament, including any fears, dislikes, or behavioural quirks, allows me to tailor my approach to their needs. This can include anything from how they interact with other pets to their comfort levels with new people. HEALTH CONCERNS: Information about any medical conditions, medications, or special care requirements is crucial for their well-being. I also need to know emergency contacts and local vets in case of any unforeseen issues. FAVOURITE ACTIVITIES: Understanding what activities your pet enjoys—be it playtime, walks, or cuddling—helps me create an engaging and fulfilling experience for them. SAFETY MEASURES: Any specific instructions regarding your home, such as securing gates or areas where pets should not go, ensures a safe environment for them while you’re away.
