Personable & Well Rounded Sitter

Pet care experience

I have been house sitting for friends and family since I was probably around 14, so for almost 18 years now in total. As I got older, I started pet sitting for others outside of my regular friend/family group, and I just never stopped. I have frequently taken care of dogs, cats, horses, birds, and bunnies ❤️ With the proper instructions and safety measures, I am willing to meet any new pets.

Kristin was AMAZING with our dogs! She handled their complex medications with ease and gave us regular updates which made us feel super comfortable leaving them.

Kristin did an excellent job. She did pet sit my two large dogs and my two cats for two weeks and there were no issues with any of them. They were very happy. She also watered my plants during the hot spell we had and I did not loose any of them which is deeply appreciated. Kristin did a daily report with videos and photos through Whatsapp. I very much recommend Kristin as a petsitter/home sitter.

Kristin has been such a great help when we’ve gone out of town. She took great care of our dog, cat, & fish. We needed a house sitter while we were gone, not only watch our animals, but to also water my indoor plants and collect our mail. Kristin did a wonderful job and my animals loved her. We’ll definitely be contacting her again to house sit for us.

Kristin did such an amazing job taking care of all our animals witch includes 2 horses, 2 dogs , and 3 cats. Don’t know what we would have done without her. Thanks again Kristin for your great attention to detail. She made it easy to leave them home knowing they would be cared for as if we were doing it ourself.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently have four dogs. When not inside or outside, each dog has their own crate on the air conditioned back porch(glass doors from the porch open into the fenced in back yard), when needed. We have a large yard with plenty of sun and shade. Feeding schedules vary at times, but for my animals I try to keep the time of day as consistent as we can. When caring for other’s pets I follow whatever schedule they already have set in their home.

A typical day

I like to take dogs for walks near my house, with owner approval. There is a trail next to my yard that I have used for years. My dogs have always loved it. I also enjoy going to kings mountain national park. We sometimes go to the pet store to get free treats shhhh
