West Asheville Pet Sitting & Care
I’m Kristin Hendrix and I live in West Asheville, 10 minutes from downtown, the Biltmore, and the North Carolina Arboretum. I have been pet sitting for twenty something years, full time since 2020. I am a ceramicist and a River Arts District Artist out of my home studio. I make pottery and hang out with doggos. I have a large fenced in back yard and the dogs love catching some rays on my back deck.

Ratings and reviews
Boots had such a great time! He's a nervous guy but Kristin made him feel right at home and took such good care of him. We will definitely be back!
Kristin is an excellent sitter and I’m very happy to use her services. Great communication and loving care for my little girl! Thank you!
Kristin was wonderful! We reached out with a last-minute request as our pet sitter for a wedding fell through and she was extremely accommodating. Our dog, Trooper, had never been watched by anyone outside of family before so we were a little nervous but he was in great hands! We would highly recommend!
Kristin was amazing and took such good care of our Ava. Thank you, Kristin!
Kristin was amazing with both our dogs ranging from 1 to 15 years old. Both seemed so happy and energized when I picked them up. So happy to have found her!
Kristin gave great updates and pictures and I quickly felt comforted my dog was well taken care of. The peace of mind was so appreciated. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I primarily take small to medium dogs, most of my customers have been regulars since 2020 so everyone knows each other and they welcome new friends. I love companion dogs that like a lap to sit on, I have a quiet room for dogs that need their own space, and elderly dogs that just want a peaceful environment to nap. I don’t mind giving meds or little guys that are used to pee pads. I have crates, toys, and dog bowls available as well. I have a season pass to The Biltmore Estate so if you would like a drop off after a wine tasting or brewery crawl, that is available.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large, fenced in yard and often leave the sliding glass door open so dogs have a lot of access to play and potty.
Pets
A typical day
I have a lot of success keeping dogs from having separation anxiety while in my care. I have a yard full of toys and we got out several times a day to chase balls and do laps around the yard.
