Life long pet owner & animal lover

Pet care experience

There has never been a time in my life when I didn’t have a fur baby to love and be loved by. As a child, my mom and I would go on long walks just looking for strays in need of someone to love them. We took in many animals over the years. Cats, kittens, pregnant dogs, the lost and discarded, we have seen them all. A love of animals that has given me an ability to understand their individual personalities and needs. Meet and greets are encouraged prior so that your baby and I can get familiarized with each other and ensure we are a good fit! Please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have. Special requests welcome!

Christina was awesome! Upon my request, she met with my dog and me a couple of times so they could get familiar with each other, as my chihuahua mix is very particular and set in his ways 😅. Christina was patient, kind and gentle with my senior boy with puppy energy. She took good care of him, followed my feeding and walking instructions, loved on him, communicated well with me, sent me photos and updates daily and was flexible with me and my schedule. 10/10 recommend!!

Christina as always was such an incredible babysitter for our Toby. He LOVES her, he pulled me and my husband down the block once he realized we were coming to her house. We can’t say thank you enough

Christina was SO great! She was super communicative, from the request to book to the meet and greet and throughout our time away! She sent pictures and updates while we were gone, was flexible on drop off and pick up logistics, and great with administering meds. Very much hoping to have her watch our dog in the future! Thank you, Christina!!

Information Christina W. would like to know about your pet

Helpful to know your pet’s favorite activity. Do they have a favorite toy and or blanket? Do they become territorial or aggressive in certain areas or with items? For example: rover will growl if you try to take his stuffed bunny from him.

A typical day

Depending on your pet’s energy level we can go on nice long walks exploring. Tug o war is always fun! Fetch and treasure hunt ( that’s when they have to find their treat) are great ways to test their skills and always an enjoyable time. Belly rubs and snuggles -whoever says a dog’s life is hard??
