About Kristen

I am currently a student, living in a no-pet apartment. The only problem is, I love animals! So, I would be excited to take care of your pet when you need it.

I am in my 4th year studying Speech Sciences, with the intention of pursuing graduate school in Health Informatics. I deeply care for the well-being of others, and that includes your pet.

It is my top priority to make every visit with your pet memorable. I dedicate my entire time to playing, entertaining, and loving animals while their owners are away. I have developed a 5/5 rating on both PawShake and Rover, with recurring clients.

I want to make every minute count. So, I am a punctual sitter and will spend the entire paid time with your animal. My favourite activities include taking dogs on exciting adventures, whether it's the beach, park or smelling the flowers. I also love spending my time with cats! I love to engage with them, keeping them company with pets, toys and overall company. I can also walk cats as well as long as they are leash trained.

I am more than happy to meet with new clients in the Kits, Downtown, and UBC area. I look forward to a great time! Feel free to reach out, and I would love to chat.

Another great visit! Our 3 cats love Kristen. We have a couple that can be quite shy and a bull in a china shop and Kristen cares for each, tailored to their style. Kristen is so attentive, she notes the babies appetites and can trouble-shoot a potentially finicky auto-feeder. Thank you Kristen! 🐱 🐱 🐱

Another great home visit series with Kristen for playful Popcorn, chatty Archer and chill and shy Dolly. Kristen takes great care of our cats and home and sends great report cards. We’ve booked again and would recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Specific Skills

I speak English
+5 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
I have the ability to administer medication, as well as take care of animals in need. I rescued my most recent family cat and worked with a variety of other different cats with varying temperaments. I understand the behavior of dogs and cats, so getting along with them is not a problem. I am also very communicative, so any questions I have will be asked. I am respectful of homes and ensure that no one else steps inside your home. I will also water any plants you need watered! I can walk both dogs and cats (only if the cats are trained). I have trained animals in the past unique and fun tricks, as well as essential a such as sitting and cat walking. I also understand that your animal may not ‘speak’ English, so I am more than happy to communicate with them in a language that they know! I have done this in the past before with French and Spanish. If you have any other questions about my skills, please message me!
