The Dog House Pet Sitting was founded by Kristin in 2017, and hubby Jeff joined in the festivities in 2023. Our 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!

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.
