🐾 Multi-pet household friendly

Pet care experience

🐾 I’ve been taking care of dogs for fifteen years, cats my entire life, and I’ve been a Bunny Mom since 2019. I have fostered pets for local shelters since 2013, with a focus on special needs and behavioral issues. My current dog is deaf and vision-impaired, so lots of experience with following safety protocols. I am a cat person at heart and adore their company. I love being a Bunny Mom, and am versed in GI stasis protocols. I am eager to take care of your loved ones, no request too big or small!

Kristen is the best - she makes going away so much easier. She is responsive, we trust her completely, and most importantly, our dogs are happy!

🐾 I will adhere to your standards and expectations with your pets. I would love to spoil your pets, but if boundaries and rules are your style, I admire that approach just the same. I am here to respect your rules and expectations, and most of all, your home and fur baby.

Information Kristin G. would like to know about your pet

What does your pet like and dislike? Any physical sensitivities or no-touch zones? Any allergies? How does your dog interact and react to other animals?

A typical day

A stimulated dog is a happy dog. We love to take walks to the park, zoomies, play fetch, and practice mental exercises like learning cues and nose work.

🐾 Please be advised that I work long hours Tues/Wed/Thurs in Middletown, typically 730a-730p. My schedule is ideal for those in need of housesitting over long weekends, evening drop-in visits for those working late shifts, or have alternate care during midday. I am happy to stay overnight on these nights for clients, but 13 hours away is not ideal for many pets so I am not the best fit for everyone 🙂. My recommendation for adult dogs is to schedule 1-2 midday breaks, and I can help find coverage for this as well! 🐾Housesitting starts at $65/night. I can provide constant care if i am available, at an additional rate. The starting rate is $30 for the first hour, and $18 an hour thereafter. Please reach out for a personalized quote based on your needs and we can make something work. 🐾Overnight housesitting includes sleeping over at your house, quality time during the morning and evening, and however much daytime care I am able to give. But please be aware there are times where I will be away 2-5 hours due to class schedule, my own pets’ needs, and my dog clients I routinely walk each week. Please reach out with your dates and I can give you a better idea of the care I can provide. I will modify my schedule to match their typical routine, as much as I am able 😊
