About

About a decade ago, I began working for a veterinary office part time in their kennel. Man! I had no clue what I was up for but it was something I had never tried before so I thought why not?

I quickly found that I loved it and it definitely took a special type of person to do the job. Working in the kennel meant giving up a lot of time that most would fill with going out to movies, spending the weekends on the lake, or holiday dinners with their family. I found that I was perfectly ok with spending time with someone else's pet and seeing their eyes light up when I came walking through that door. I moved up to become a technician and receptionist and began working in veterinary full time.

The day came where a client, the owner of my most favorite boarding patient Macy, asked if I knew of anyone who would come to their home to watch Macy, because despite her always happy demeanor, she would have terrible waves of anxiety when she would board. I volunteered and the rest was history!

​Nothing is more rewarding then walking through the door and seeing a pet's eyes light up and their entire body wiggle with happiness when they see you!

Kristin is prompt, reliable, and incredibly loving. She cares for my dog with tender care and makes me feel confident that my pup is safe, happy, and anxiety-free. My dog is always so excited to see Kristin again, which confirms the fact that she is in the best possible hands while I am out of town. I am so lucky to have found Kristin -- she is the absolute best sitter!

I was approached to work in a veterinary kennel part time and thought why not learn something new? I found that it took a very special type of person to do that job. It meant giving up a lot of time that most would fill with going out, etc but I was perfectly ok with that!

The day came where a client, the owner of my most favorite boarding patient Macy, an Aussie Shepherd Husky mix, asked if I knew of anyone who would come to their home to watch Macy, despite her always happy demeanor, she would have terrible anxiety while boarding. I volunteered and the rest was history! The office I worked for would refer their high anxiety or elderly patients to me! 

I have worked with all sorts of clients from all walks of life. The same goes with pets - young to senior, energetic to relaxed, sweet to sassy, etc. 

Please make sure that you always have a meet and greet between you and your pet sitter. Always ask for references and don't be afraid to ask for updates! And the more details on your pet(s) the better!
