Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to work within homes but I do not offer boarding in my own home. Exceptions could be made for small dog breeds like Yorkies that are comfortable around my cats. They are dog friendly.

Information Kristen S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors. I have experience with elderly pets and special needs. Let me know if they have any aggression triggers like skateboarders, cats, etc.

A typical day

I enjoy taking dogs on walks and to the dog park. I’ll play fetch with them and see what tricks they know. I’ll give them pets and treats. I am happy to take cats out as well. I find that cats enjoy toys with feathers and consider myself a cat whisperer.

Reliable animal lover

Cat care experience

I’ve lived with cats my entire life and have two of my own. I recently lost my childhood cat to CKD. Toward the end, I was administering fluids and multiple medications as well as aiding with her mobility so I am comfortable with high need kitties.

Kristen was fantastic. Was extremely caring, professional, communicated consistently, and more. She even look Perry to the vet when she needed a quick nurse visit. Plus, Perry loved her. Will hire again in the future!!
