About Kristen

Hi, my name is Kristen. I am 35 year old Australian female living in Sydney's inner west. I am a career Veterinary Nurse who has been pet sitting for clients for years. I have worked general practice for many years, then onto emergency at SASH and then settled into exotic and avian medicine. After five years I have moved onto another emergency veterinary hospital as a clinical operations manager. I love the challenging work, but miss the connection with pets and pet owners. 

I would love to spend some one on one time with your little pooch, kitty, rabbit or bird. 

As a nurse, I am the perfect sitter for elderly animals or those with chronic conditions. I can also look after a range of different species. 

I am comfortable administering all medications and recognising any change in medical conditions.

I have a Masters in Wildlife Health from Sydney Uni. I am a long-term volunteer for Pets in the Park, a non-profit charity that provides free veterinary care for pets belonging to people in unstable housing. 

Send me a message, we can arrange a catch up before you hire me. 

Hope to hear from you soon!
