Best Care For Best Buds!
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm so excited to be here to help with your furry family members! Helping people and being with dogs & cats has always been a cherished part of my life. The balance between having fun, taking care of business & ensuring the pursuit of healthy and happy lives together is so important and rewarding to me. I have worked with elderly animals as well as puppies, and know how to have good boundaries and help pursue healthy habits—part of foster caring for dogs in the past I had to learn how to handle more difficult situations and that has served me very well in animal sitting. I have worked with foster care dogs as well as basic housesitting & walking for over 15 years. I'm a garden-farmer by trade, now have the time & space to work with animals again as the growing season slows. Also looking for local clients to form longer-standing relationships with that could be a great fit year-round as needs arise. I hope to become a valued & trusted help to you, and a real pal to your pet!
Reviews
I can't express how wonderful Robyn is a petsitter. She was wonderful and is sincerely loving.
Robyn is so amazing with my dog, Copper! He's a sweet boy, but can be challenging to walk on a leash. He's a super strong Boxer-Lab mix. Robyn is a total pro and has worked with him on improving his leash skills. Robyn is always genuinely so engaged and playful with Copper and I know I can count on her to provide awesome care for Copper when needed.
I've known Robyn for about 15 years - she's a caring and careful person who I have relied on many times to care for my own pets. She is responsible, honest, and kind.
I immediately trusted Robyn with my high energy Aussi-mix, Marlo. She has been very reliable and great with everything Marlo requires. I would recommended her over and over again! Her high but focused energy is rare and appreciated.

Safety, trust & environment
I don’t offer boarding in my home, but I love to help maintain a comfortable and clean environment in yours for you and your pets. I am comfortable with sleeping with animals if that’s their/your preference to help them feel secure. I love to walk dogs and play, so we’ll get good recreational time in together. I can administer medications and topical treatments as well if needed!
Information Robyn K. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences but I like to know something of their temperament. Are they okay around other dogs? Strangers? Kids? This is good to know when getting ready for a walk around town or in nature spaces. Love to at least have a chat if not meet before undertaking any longer or regular sitting/walking. Prefer to meet and greet if it’s a stay more than 1-2 nights.
A typical day
If walks and parks are good, that’s a go-to for me, and I’m happy to take them on my car. An avid fetch enthusiast, I am very energetic when it comes to playtime but know how to wind-down when we need to get relaxed and settled. Neighborhood walks are always great.

Availability
I am able to stay in your home and do your normal morning and evening routines with your animals. I work part time in town and am able to balance my work with pet sitting. I make my own schedule for the most part with gardening clients so I can cater to your fur family’s needs.
