This was the first time Fritz stayed with Kristen. She was wonderful with him. Kristen sent frequent updates and pictures so I could see how he was doing. Fritz is a senior dog with medical needs. Kristen did a great job taking of my little man. I have more trips planned in the coming and will absolutely be booking with Kristen for those trips.

Kristin was an amazing pet sitter for my 18 year-old dog. Lily immediately felt comfortable there, enjoyed the company of the other small dogs, and was so well taken care of and spoiled. Kristin sent videos daily and informed me of her progress. What a bonus finding her less than a 1/2 mile from where I live. I most definitely will be using Kristin from now on!

She was wonderful with my dog! She took great care of him, kept me updated, and went above and beyond by even giving him a bath. I really appreciated her kindness, attention to detail, and the extra care she provided. I would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!

Remi had a great stay and we had a great experience with Kristin, we will definitely use her again in the future. She offered a meet and greet first, which was nice because a lot of rovers arn’t allowing that feature much anymore. I like that she has all small dogs. She sent pictures for updates and took her on walks which was nice.

Kristin went above and beyond helping with a vet referral for an overdue procedure and recovery.

Kristin is awesome and Winky likes her so much she sat and watched tv with Kristin. That’s saying a lot for Winky to do that!

Safety, trust & environment

The Dog House Pet Sitting was founded by in 2017z My backyard is grassy, fenced in (no pool!), monitored all the time & doggie door shut at night. As an added layer, I put Apple airtags on all pups which can be shared to the owner via Apple iPhone. There is a also secure baby gate at the front door, so no one is running off at my house!
