Pet Sitting & Beyond! Holidays Too!

Pet care experience

I have over 15 years of animal care experience, including dogs, cats, fish, birds, chickens, ducks, goats, small animals and more! In regards to health and safety regarding Covid, I have been vaccinated, always wear a mask in your home during meet and greets,drop in visits and in public settings, and use sanitizing measures. I am available for the following services: -overnight pet sitting services in your home -drop in visits for cats or other small animals (no dogs please for drop in visits) I work from home, and will only be leaving for a quick run to the grocery store or an appointment. So, your pets will have plenty of attention and love from me! I understand that most pets do best when they are able to stay in the comfort of their own home, surrounded by familiar things while their owner is away. My experience ranges from young animals to senior pets. I am comfortable giving insulin, inhalers, as well as oral and topical medications. I love to go to the beach, park, and would love to take your dog along on my adventures! However, I'm more than happy to keep your dog close to your home too, with short walks, playtime in the yard, etc. I have owned cats and dogs, and know that pets become a part of your family. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets! Feel free to look through my profile, rates, and testimonials. I look forward to hearing from you!

Safety, trust & environment

I try to keep the pet's schedule and routine the same as it is when their owner is home. I'm happy to follow detailed instructions from owners, and want the pet to feel comfortable and at ease while I'm caring for them.

Information Kristin R. would like to know about your pet

I would require a brief meet and greet for first time clients, so that I can learn the specifics about your dog and your expectations. Due to Covid, I prefer meet and greets at your home In a fenced in yard, a porch, or a sittuation where all family members at the home wear a mask during the meet and greet.

A typical day

While staying overnight at your home, I will take your dog out on a walk that best suits them. Whether they'd rather stay close to their neighborhood, or on a beach or hiking adventure, your dog will be well cared for. I always ask owners during the meet and greet where the dog likes to go for their walks.

Availability

I will be home the majority of the time during an overnight, so your pet will have plenty of attention from me while you are away. I may need to leave the house for a trip to the store or an appointment, but will otherwise be at home, either doing a work project or relaxing with your pet.
