Work From Home & Sends Lots of Pics

Pet care experience

I've been dog- and cat-sitting, quite literally all over the world, for more than 10 years now. I've spent up to 3 months at one time in someone's home with their dog(s) and/or cat(s) while they've been away. I love sending daily photo and video updates to their humans, 😊 and take frequent work breaks to snuggle and go for walks (I am self-employed and therefore create my own work schedule every day). I don't smoke or have children, live alone, have no pets of my own, and am a relatively quiet and introverted person. I only take one client at a time to ensure full accessibility and attention per person and their companions. My priority is the safety and comfort of your best furry friend. Unless traveling, I'm available 24/7 for you and your dog and/or cat needs. 🐶 🐱

Left our sweet Lucy with Kristen while we were gone for a month. We appreciated Kristen’s regular updates and knew that Lucy was getting the best care while we were away.

Kristin communicated regularly with us and took loving care of our dog. We appreciated the updates, pictures, and videos. Will use again!

Kristin took great care of our dog! She sent tons of photos and our dog was as happy as can be when we picked her up. We would definitely use Kristin as a sitter again!

I highly recommend Kristin for your dog sitting needs. Kristin really spent quality time with our little Maltese Koda! Koda warmed up to Kristin immediately which comforted me in knowing I was leaving our little guy with a wonderful person. Kristin sent us pictures, comments and videos throughout the day. We could see they both were having a great time. Thank You Kristin for welcoming our Koda into your home. You’re the BEST!

Information Kristin L. would like to know about your pet

I am comfortable with all breeds. I only ask that you are forthcoming with any behavior I should be especially keen to know or look out for- be it with other dogs we may walk by during our breaks or with other people.

A typical day

I live at the end of a neighborhood road for convenient daily walks/outdoor time. I'm also a 20-minute drive from Peebles Island if your dog enjoys car rides and longer park walks. And since I work from home, we can go for frequent walks and have regular snuggle breaks. :)

I'm self-employed and work from home. So, I'm with my furry friends 24/7, other than a run to the grocery store. This also means plenty of snuggle breaks and walks/playtime.
