Pet care experience
*Availability update May 2024: I will have reduced availability this summer due to training for an endurance event. Feel free to message me for more details on my availability!* I've taken care of dogs and cats for over 10 years, and have managed both boarding facilities and rescue facilities. I have experience with special needs pets and can administer injections as well as oral medications. I can also administer fluids and have experience with caring for pets after both routine and orthopedic surgeries. In addition to working as a veterinary assistant, I also work as a rehabilitation technician for dogs. I do both overnight pet sitting in your home as well as drop-in visits.
Reviews
Love all the photos you share and appreciate how well you take care of our boys ❤️. If anyone is debating about booking Kristy, she doesn’t just take care of everything that’s “necessary” you should know it’s obvious how much she cares.
Kristy was absolutely amazing! We are first time pet owners and this was our first time leaving our cat and Kristy made us feel so secure. Our kitty really loved her and really opened up. Also had great communication and got pictures of our kitty everyday. Will definitely be rebooking her soon.
Kristy is my cat whisperer. My cat Mose LOVES her. She’s technically outside my zone but continues to say yes. I’m very blessed. We do drop ins to house sitting and I know things will go well. I get multiple photos daily which is very comforting knowing my 13 year old Maine Coon gets his daily meds. Highly recommend this amazing woman!!
Kristy was great...she was very responsive and gave us updates and pics of our dog. Would definitely recommend!

All of the care I provide for your pet will be in your own home and tailored according to your pets needs. My goal is to stick as close to your pets usual routine as possible! Regarding meet and greets: All first meet and greets are complimentary! If a second meet and greet is requested prior to the same stay, I do charge a 30 minute drop in fee of $25 due to high demand.
Information Kristy L. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs. I have experience with all ages and with a variety of medical conditions. Let me know if your pet has separation anxiety and/or isn't used to being left alone. I do work 4 days a week with 10-11 hour shifts with a 30-60 minute lunch break, so I want to make sure this schedule works for you and your pet!
A typical day
I will cater the daily activities to the needs of your pet. Whether you're pet prefers lots of cuddles and assistance with eating or grooming, or is high energy and prefers lots of playing, running, and walks.

Availability
I currently work full time at a veterinary clinic, but I am available to provide care for your pet both before and after work, as well as anytime during my 3 days off a week. I work 4 days/week and my shifts last 10-11 hours with a 30-60 minute lunch break. The frequency of potty breaks for your pet just depend on whether I am working those days or not. On days I work potty breaks will be every 6 hours, and on days I don't work they will be every 2-4 hours depending on the pets usual schedule.
