Information Kristin W. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences. It is important that I know any behavioral quirks your dog may have in order to keep us both safe while we get to know each other.

A typical day

I love taking the dogs in my care on trails, especially the Blanford Nature Trail! If you for any reason prefer to not have your dog walked in wooded areas I know plenty of paved paths that dogs love just as much!

Pet care experience

What’s so great about dogs? They love us unconditionally—and I think dogs deserve to be loved how they love us, all of the time. Unfortunately, it’s hard for owners to always physically be there for their dogs which is what I’m here for! I have several years of experience as a dog sitter and walker for dogs of all ages. Whether it is a puppy being potty trained or a senior in need of medical care. I will give your dogs the care that they deserve as if they were my own, while also ensuring that I follow any previously set obedience rules that you may have. Mostly, though, I’m just a huge animal lover and would be grateful to share that love with your dogs!

Kirstin and Cassie were AMAZING with Duckie! he loved hanging out with them and felt super comfortable right away at our meet and greet. they were so accommodating in bringing him to our other sitter we had lined up for the rest of the time we were away. we would highly recommend Kristin, and will definitely be ask her in the future to watch our Duckie again!

I have a German Shepard,a Pomeranian and a cat. From beginning to end, Kristin was great! The fur babies loved her from the moment she walked in the door. She has such a wonderful, kind personality and she so reliable. We would book her again in a heartbeat.

Kristin is amazing! My dog was very happy when I returned, which is always the sign of a good experience. My house was left perfectly clean. I will definitely be rebooking Kristin in the future.

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.
