More Boys I Meet, More I Love Dogs

Although I am not currently a dog owner, I was born and raised with dogs since a baby. Growing up in a dog crazed family, it is no surprise that when I visit back home, even with my 6 siblings, we are still out numbered by dogs! I have helped raise puppies as my own, I have years of experience with senior dogs, and I even taught my previous English Bulldog how to skateboard! My past roommates have consisted of an English Bulldog, American Staffordshire Terrier, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, Pitbull, Australian Shepherd, Collie mix, and a Schnoodle (not all at the same time of course). My friends come to me first with sitting needs! I am happy to provide any additional information upon request. Thanks!

We were really nervous about leaving Ollio with someone we didn’t know before, but already at our first meeting with Kristin,her wonderful family,and their warm home,we knew that Ollio would be in great hands with them. This was confirmed every day by the photos and videos that Kristin thoughtfully sent us. She answered every question we had quickly, with a lot of patience and care. Kristin and Nate,along with their kids,are true dog lovers! Thank you so much! I will definitely hire Kristin again!

Kristin & family are the best!! She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable while I was out of the country to keep my mind at ease. She even allowed me to come do a meet & greet prior to my trip to make sure Cooper knew them and was comfortable! He was allowed to sleep in their bed and their couch so I know he felt right at home 😊. I even had a last minute car emergency and Kristin so kindly made it work in her schedule to pick Cooper up and return him at the end of his stay. This was a HUGE help. He is a senior dog who had meds and needed a little extra TLC this stay due to some help stuff going on and she followed all the instructions with ease. I know Cooper will be back to stay with them for the rest of my out of town trips 😊. Thank you!!

Kristin was amazing. She sent so many photos and videos while we were away and assured me our pup was doing great. When we picked up Indi she was calm and you could tell she had been loved on the whole week. We will absolutely use Kristin again!

Kristin & her family were AWESOME with Gronk! He’s usually very shy with new people and she got him to warm up to her immediately. She also sent numerous updates and photos. Very much worth the $$!

Safety, trust & environment

I've had many years of experience doggie watching, specifically 9 years on Rover. I follow instructions to the point from the doggie owner and will always be responsive, just a quick call away.

A typical day

I like to keep active in my own personal life and will be sharing this lifestyle with any dog I hang out with. My house is located in Delaware, OH near downtown. We go on walks around the neighborhood and have many nearby doggie parks in the area that we frequent. I love going on hikes and with the owners permission, would like to bring my doggie friend along.

I love all dog breeds, so I do not have any preferences! But I would like to know how friendly your dog is with people, toddlers and/or other dogs so I know what activities to center the day around. Does your dog have any favorite activities? What is your dogs feeding schedule like? Is your dog house broken? (potty trained & barking are main concerns)
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.
