Experienced Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Hey there! I am Kristin and after an extended time away from Rover I am back and ready to do the job I have always loved doing... taking care of animals! Just a little backstory on me: It has always been my dream to be able to love on animals so I made that happen. I worked at the Towne Square Pet Resort, which is a boarding facility for dogs and cats. I gained lots of experience caring for fur babies during my time there. After going off to college, I worked at the Western Kentucky University Horse Barn caring for quarter horses while pursuing my degree, a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture with an emphasis in Animal Science. I have since graduated, and started my own family and hobby farm. We have had dogs, sheep, goats, turkeys, ducks, guineas and LOTS of chickens. When I say I love taking care of animals, I absolutely mean it! I have volunteered my time with several pet rescues in the area and did job shadows at local vet clinics. Animals are my passion in life, they always have been! I previously was a dog sitter offering boarding in my home and had lots of great reviews. I am currently only able to assist with drop in's/ walks for the time being. I do work full time so I am hoping to be available to drop in/walk on my lunch or right after work. I know this will limit me but I have hopes that this can work for some so please don't hesitate to reach out to me and see if we can make a plan work!

Really felt good about having Kristin watch my dog Wilbur. The fact that she had two dogs for him to play with was important too...h e's is a very social dog. Will definitely use her again!

Kristin was fantastic! Butch made himself right at home the moment he walked in the door. He can be skittish around new people and kids, but he had no problem with her dogs, cats or kids. She sent several pictures daily and even a video of our dogs playing together. She responded quickly every time I messaged her. Definitely will be booking with Kristin again!!
