Patient and Passionate Animal Lover

Pet care experience

A huge animal lover who’s home full time and ready to cuddle. My home is pet friendly in the Heart of New York City. I share a 2-bedroom apartment with my two children ages 7 and 17. We love to go to the parks daily and enjoy long walks/bike riding near Crotona Park. I'm available for business seven days a week. if your location is walking distance from my home we can make arrangements for earlier walks/pickups but no earlier than 10a.m. I have 15 years experience with loving and caring for animals. I have had one of my own who’s name was Rambo. I have also managed at the Spot Experience for three Years as well as AKC Canine Retreat for 2 years. Where overnight stay, daycare, Grooming, Walking, Running and Jogging services all took place. I also have experience with disabled dogs/cats and providing medications as directed.

Christine was wonderful, sent me frequent updates and accommodated me when I was running late. Highly recommend!

Christine was so wonderful, friendly and accommodating! She and her home are highly recommended for your pets. Our case is that we needed someone to care for our cat and dog together so she was a perfect match for us. She has a friendly & super smart cat who knows how to accommodate other people’s pets (the perfect little host in a fur coat!)

Wonderful sitter. Very communicative. Can definitely tell she has an affinity and tenderness for pets. Will definitely be using her again in the future.

Not only is Christine an experienced and entirely capable sitter for animals with a host of varied needs, she is also an incredibly loving caring and kind individual. It was my first time leaving Buddha with anyone other than family and I was extremely nervous. Christine assured and reassured me repeatedly throughout his stay with her that he was doing well, and that he was happy and healthy. My dog wound up needing medication administered three times a day throughout his entire stay, needed to wear a cone and also needed a follow up visit to the vet. Christine handled these challenges without a hitch and took Buddha all the way to the vet (long commute) no questions asked and even walked him all the way back home! I could tell upon pickup that she had grown really attached to him and even got emotional saying goodbye. This made me all the more confident that he was in the best hands in my absence. If you’re looking for a sitter, look no further.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is a very calm and relaxing environment with the kids gone most of the day, my boys are also very good with understanding animal needs, warning signs and body language. Your fur baby will feel secure, loved, entertained and most importantly very safe in our home of three.

Information Christine B. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference for any animal that I provide care for. I just asked that all pets must be vaccinated, notify me of any behaviors, illnesses, and details that will make your pet feel at home. (this way I know how to schedule & prep) I don’t crate pets there free to roam but if you feel your pet would be better off in a crate, I ask that you please provide one.

A typical day

If your pet is energetic he/she will enjoy my daily walks through Crotona Park (Pending the weather). If he/she prefers to stay indoor that’s not a problem we can enjoy Netflix together!
