Pet care experience
*Please note that 'additional cat' and 'additional dog' rates are only for more than one of the (same) animal.* I've always had a love for animals, and generally have a natural ability to connect with them. I have a lot of experience with anti-social or timid dogs, as well as strong dogs. I'm very open to caring for Exotic, Avian, and Reptilian pets! I am fully vaccinated! 🎊 My main business is Professional house/business cleaning. I'm a tidy person and take great pride in maintaining clients' homes. I run a Photography business occasionally; I've had a passion for Photography for over 20 years 📷 For walks, I enjoy finding parks to visit, especially when there are great photo opportunities with the scenery. I love embracing the opportunity to get easy exercise along with the dogs. Wandering through neighborhoods is always fun, and I'm always looking for creative ways to photograph dogs/pets during our ventures. Being a Dog Walker/Pet Sitter is a job I've always wanted to have, and you can rest assured that you're hiring someone with a true passion and love for animals! I am usually able to work my appointments around your pets' schedule. Some of my appointments are on stationary days, but my clients are often flexible! I am great about communicating any delays or changes. I send photos with every check-in. My Husband helps out with sittings when needed/ available to help.
Reviews
Very attentive to our dog’s needs and always communicative with us! Lily was nervous the first day and Kristin took extra time to make sure she felt safe and did her business. Thanks so much, Kristin!
Kristin ("Kitten") is very good as a care provider for dogs and cats. She has an easy confidence with pets that helps those pets connect and trust her. Her dog walking is always great, and she sends photos to help me know that my pets are going on walks thru nice places, and such. I trust Kitten with my pets, and look forward to more great service from her in the future!
Kristin was fantastic. Super responsible, responsive and sent lots of photos with updates. She even got my kitten some toys and left the house cleaner than it was when I left.
A great experience! Kristin was a wonderful communicator and a gentle caregiver to our two big dogs. She dealt with one of our dog’s medical condition professionally and kept us updated with messages and pics. Our dogs will be so excited to see her again. Thank you, Kristin!
About Kitten R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to adhere to whatever the owner instructs me to do, and whatever schedule the pet has for food, playtime, walks, etc. I do my best to keep the place clean and be aware of any debris I bring in from outside. Cleaning is second-nature for me.
Information Kitten R. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know of any Post Traumas and whichever behaviors require special attention. I focus on developing a genuine bond with every animal, and I work a lot with body language and vocal commands. I have a good vocal range for big, excitable dogs (I've learned that a loud voice helps in these situations). I genuinely feel that my relationship with dogs has greatly improved since becoming a Sitter!
A typical day
I take my dogs on walks through the neighborhoods and cities, and I love taking them on park trails and hikes when possible. I'm happy to accommodate any particular needs in terms of exercise.

Availability
*I am not available for weekly walks* My cleaning schedule takes place in the daytime. When I have Photography gigs, they usually take place in the evenings. On most days I can schedule my appointments around your pets' schedule, or else take a break midday to visit them. My evenings are usually flexible.
