Pet care experience

Walks, Cuddles & Peace of Mind

I grew up with 'pound hounds', my parents always found a rescue that needed stability, love and care and I've always valued having an animal in the home. After leaving my parents' home I continued to pet-sit for our family pets whenever needed. I've watched plenty of friends' pets as well and enjoy the brief window of time I get to spend with these fur-babies. I recently had a friend recommend Rover as a way to bring love and care to families that need to step away from their babies and I jumped at the opportunity! I provide calm, dependable care and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routine, and needs — whether that means active playtime, extra patience with shy pets, or keeping up with feeding and medication schedules. I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet like family and aim to make their time with me as stress-free and fun as possible.

Kristen was very attentive with my Boston Terrier and provided frequent updates. When I picked him up, it was clear that he was happy and cared for. I would trust Kristen with him again.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Pet care fits well into my routine on weekends, when I’m available for more dedicated time, walks, play, and attention throughout the day. During the week, I can also care for pets that are comfortable following a typical workday routine, including being crated or relaxing at home while I’m at the office. I’m committed to keeping pets comfortable, cared for, and on their normal schedule as much as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I aim to create a fun, cozy, and safe environment where they can feel right at home. Whether it’s playtime, walks, belly rubs, or relaxing on the couch, pets get plenty of attention, care, and love while staying as close to their normal routine as possible.

A typical day

Whether your dog is a couch potato or an active walker that loves to explore all the smells in the neighborhood, I love to ensure I'm giving each pet what they need and love.

Pet parents, please let me know all the quirks, needs, and preferences your pet has so that I'm able to accommodate them and give you peace of mind in knowing your baby will be well cared for.
