Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving, Reliable Pet Care
I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’ve grown up with dogs and can’t imagine life without them! Over the years, I’ve provided pet sitting for friends and family, both in my home and theirs, and I have also worked as a dog walker for a reputable company in San Francisco, so I’m comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just need a little extra TLC. I’m also experienced working with anxious or shy dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I’ve had the opportunity to care for many wonderful pets through Rover as well, and I encourage you to check out my reviews from past clients! I currently work remotely full-time and am available for house sitting any day of the week. Because I work from home, your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. Apart from house sitting, please note that walks and drop-in visits are generally limited during standard business hours Monday through Friday (8am–5pm), but I am available for walks and drop-ins during evenings and weekends. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or overnight care, I’ll treat your pet like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. For new clients, I offer a complimentary meet and greet, typically about 15 minutes at your home, so we can meet in person, introduce me to your pet, and discuss any routines or special care instructions. I also offer phone or video calls as an alternative if that’s easier for your schedule. I’d love to meet your furry friend!

Qualifications

Safety, trust & environment
I am adaptable to any needs you communicate. I want to get a sense of how you think your dog will react to a new person, what their quirks are, and how I can best accommodate them while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Kristin was kind, punctual, professional, and respectful of my home while I was away. I felt comfortable knowing my two high maintenance dogs were in good hands and was able to relax while still getting some nice updates and photos. Highly recommend!
Kristin took wonderful care of our senior (though still young-at-heart) dog Louie while we were away for a week. She sent daily updates and photos, followed our care instructions, and gave Louie plenty of love and attention. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a spotless home; highly recommend Kristin to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dogsitter.
Kristin is very responsible in her communications and her committment to times of arrival. I have used her twice now and both times she made a special accomodation to stop by early on the way to work so I could get my dog Lucy "used to her" and wouldn't be surprised in the afternoon. Throughout the stay, Kristin sent me a good amount of pictures and updates at least twice a day, often three. I highly recommend Kristin.
This was the first time Kristin sat with my dog Lucy, who is a rescue initially mistrusting of "new people." To my relief, after the initial encounter, Lucy was OK with Kristin and I felt good about leaving them together for a short weekend. Kristin has a sweet, easy-going temperament that would help any pet get comfortable. She took good care of Lucy as well as my home and sent me pictures and reports about their walks. I definitely recommend Kristin.
We have booked Kristin multiple times to puppy sit our 12 week old puppy and she has been fantastic! She is very dog savvy, communicative and kind. Highly recommend!
Kristin was very communicative and easy to work with. Grateful for her time with Pip :)

Schedule
I currently work remotely full-time, which allows me to offer flexible and attentive house sitting throughout the week. Because I work from home, pets typically receive plenty of companionship, supervision, and consistency during the day. Apart from house sitting, please note that walks and drop-in visits during standard business hours Monday through Friday (8am–5pm) are somewhat limited, but I am generally available for mornings, evenings, and weekends.
