Hello! My name is Kristine, and I look forward to meeting you and your fur child! I am a proud dog mom to a sweet and loveable French Bulldog named Bubbles. I work full-time in Marketing Administration outside of house/pet-sitting, and I grew up in the Bay Area. Regarding pet care experience, my family and I have owned dogs and cats for 20+ years (and I have experience caring for guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, and hermit crabs!). As of now, my mom's home has five dogs! Needless to say, I am the first person she calls to house/pet-sit. I have experience with special needs and senior animals. I am experienced with oral and injected medication administration. One of our family's senior dogs has only 3 legs and requires more assistance to get around. Additionally, I cared for our lovable pug, who had diabetes and required insulin twice a day. Furthermore, throughout university, I cared for a sweet golden retriever while a local family was out of town on the weekends and vacationed every summer. I resided in their home for 2-3 weeks at a time to look after the house and their furry family member. Additionally, I house/pet-sat for neighbors/family/ friends for many years, and very much enjoyed my time doing so! With all of that being said, I’m a very responsible person and pet owner, so you can be confident that your best friend will be in good hands. Please reach out with further questions- thank you! ***Services*** Prior to any booking, I would love to meet with you and your furry companion to ensure that we are a great match for house-sitting, drop-ins, and walks; and discuss all there is to need to know about your pet! HOUSE-SITTING FOR SPECIAL NEEDS PETS: Rate: $125.00 per day Holiday Rate: $150.00 per day *House-sitting: I work full-time outside of Rover (Mondays-Fridays). I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and go into the office on Tuesdays-Thursdays. When I’m in the office, I’ll be away for 4-8 hours. Prior to leaving for work, I will ensure that your fur-baby’s needs are met (breakfast, potty break, morning walk, etc.). And, there’s nothing better than returning home from work and being greeted by a sweet face and wagging tail! Additionally, Bubbles accompanies me to a few clients’ homes, because our furry family members get along very well! If you and/or your fur-baby are not comfortable with Bubbles tagging along, then that is completely understandable! I want to ensure that you and your fur-child feel safe and comfortable, while you’re away. Bubbles will get to have a sleepover with my sister and her puppy :) While working from home, I love having a furry friend as my coworker! During my stay, I would need a space to set up and plug in my laptop, and Wifi :) On the weekends, your furry friend and I will be attached at the hip! Whether it be outside, going on a hike or walk (whatever suits your pet's needs), or cuddled up on the couch and catching up on some reading or Netflix. Lastly, please inform me if any plants need to be watered, where to store your mail, and when the trash needs to be taken out :) HOUSE-SITTING FOR SPECIAL NEEDS PETS: Rate: $125.00 per day Holiday Rate: $150.00 per day *Drop-ins/ Walks: On weekdays, I am more than happy to stop by your home after work to feed/play/walk your dog! Please connect with me regarding scheduling for the weekdays. On weekends, I am available in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I love all pets! I will treat your fur baby as if it were my own. I am a very responsible and caring pet owner; I will ensure that your pet receives all of the care and love that they deserves :)
