Pet care experience
I am lucky enough to turn my passion of working with animals into a career. Now with over 10 years experience as a nurse in the veterinary field, I’ve decided to branch out and help pet owners in a different way. After hearing about owners being weary of leaving their pets at big boarding facilities for vacations, in home pet sitting was a no brainer. I have been sitting for friends and family for several years now as well as walking dogs in the Boston and Worcester areas for the last several years. My job has given me the skills to care for special needs pets, including those being treated for chronic illnesses. I am dependable and responsible and your pet’s safety and happiness is of the utmost importance to me!

Kristin is an absolute gem! She went above and beyond my expectations. She took outstanding care of my little guy Gordie while I was away for a few day, which included taking him for walks with her dog Joon and bringing Gordie to work so that he wouldn't be alone all day. Kristin contacted me immediately when she noticed that Gordie was scooting on the carpet. She did a little investigation and discovered that Gordie had a hot spot on his butt, so she trimmed the hair around the affected area and applied a topical ointment to keep him comfortable. Kristin recommended that I take Gordie to the vet to be checked out when I got home, which I did. I would definitely hire Kristin again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter who will take great care of your precious pet. Kristin is the best!
Kristen stayed with my dog Jethro overnight at our house for a couple days, and I will definitely be seeking her out next time I go away. She was easy to work with both for a pre-stay meet-and-greet and for the stay itself. I enjoyed getting pictures and updates via text about their walks and Shark Week TV snuggles. Jet was his normal smiley self when I got home, and there is nothing better than that after time away. Kristin clearly loves dogs, and I would trust her again with mine for sure.
Kristin has a true passion for all animals and is educated and experienced with a multitude of dog breeds. I trust Kristin will provide safe and passionate care while walking and looking after the dogs. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Kristin as their dogs caregiver!
Kristin has personally taken care of my pets, and I would trust her without a doubt to care of my very special best friends. Kristin has an extensive background in professional animal care, is reliable and punctual and I think that makes her a very good candidate to be a dog sitter. She also makes up very clever nicknames for animals and they’re always cute and funny!

If pets are staying in my home they live separately from my oldest dog but welcome to interact with my two female dogs. They would be leashed at all times outside because of the wildlife in the area but any adventures we go on they’re included!

Pet care is our daily routine in my house, the dogs go out first thing in the morning and eat breakfast. I like to keep everyone on relatively the same routine if I can. We train or give enrichment toys throughout the day.
