Information Kristie V. would like to know about your pet

Are they comfortable with new people? Do they like children? How much do they eat? What is their personality like? I like all breeds. What is their schedule and preferences?

A typical day

We will go on walks around the neighborhood according to your dogs activity level. I love to play with the dogs, play fetch, and visit dog parks.

Kristie V.'s Neighborhood

Dog lover

Pet care experience

I have grown up with animals my entire life. I have been around dogs, cats, turtles, snakes, and fish. I am a dog lover and had my own dog for 14 years. I am comfortable grooming, walking, playing with, and caring for them. I have pet sitted for several dogs and cats of my friends and neighbors. I am a very reliable individual. I am comfortable with many different breeds and sizes of dogs. What I enjoy the most is taking walks with the dogs and playing with them outdoors. I love to spoil dogs with fun walks to the park and plenty of treats (if the owner allows). I have a very flexible schedule and am very willing to work with you to fit your and your puppy’s needs.

Kristie is an excellent puppy sitter. Her and her daughter are a joy to meet and put you at ease that your dog will be in good hands. My 90lb Lab/Great Pyrenees loves being taken care of by Kristie. He hates to leave! She seems very comfortable with big energetic dogs and knows how to be a quiet but strong leader. She’s also very flexible with her schedule and does what it takes to fit your needs.

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.
