Pet care experience

Loves dogs, fenced yard/clean house

I love dogs! I have 2 sheepdoodles of my own who I love to spoil. I have either owned a dog or fostered dogs my entire life. I believe dogs are a part of the family and will treat your dog as a part of mine while they are with me. Your dog will be in the home with me, not left outdoors. I can accommodate dietary needs and minor medical needs. I can even give him or her a bath if you’d like! I have a fenced backyard where we can play with toys or jump in the baby pool or splash pad. I will communicate with you via texts, pics or videos while you’re away to give you peace of mind your fur baby is doing well. Your dog will have a great time in my home. I do work outside the home, with varied days off. So, your pet would need to be able to go 8 hours without a potty break. I would be home with your pet at ALL other times ensuring they aren’t lonely or scared. I have a large, fenced backyard where your pup can run and play. I have 2 dogs who would love to play chase or tug with yours! Your pup would be in the house with me as if he/she were my own. I can crate your pup if desired.

Kristin did a great job with my pups! She made sure I received updates while I was away for the holiday and it sounds like my dogs got along with hers as well. Thank you!

I do work outside the home with varied schedule. I am able to maintain pet schedules though. Flexibility with drop off and pick up would be helpful.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large, fenced yard and two friendly dogs. I have a smoke free home. If there is an overlap of service with another client, I am forthcoming with that information. This way you can rest easy knowing what pets/animals are with yours.

Pets

A typical day

We can play in my fenced backyard with toys or in the baby pool/splash pad during warmer months. I have all kinds of toys to keep your pup busy and happy (Kong’s, chew toys and tennis balls), but you’re welcome to bring whatever makes your dog feel comfortable.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Kristin can host up to 4 pets per night
Your dog needs to be current on vaccinations to protect my dogs and yours. Your dog should play well with others and be spayed/neutered. Please let me know ahead of time any special needs your pet may have so I can be ready to provide the best care.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
