Dog lover, looking to share my love.

Pet care experience

I am a 21 year old dog lover who recently moved to NYC. I would love my own dog, however the time is currently not right for me. But the void of not having a dog in my life has become too large, help me fill this void, and let me help you give your dog the best care it can have! Spending time with dogs is one of the largest sources of joy in my life. Help me, by helping yourselves, and let me babysit your pup! Your dog would find a second home, in my home! I live down in Battery Park, near lots of dog parks and excellent walking areas. Let your pup go on a vacation while you're on vacation! About this sitter: I am a 21 year old pre-veterinary student also studying Biochemistry. I hope to continue my education at Veterinary school after I earn my undergraduate degree. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover for my entire life. My parents owned three dogs while I was growing up, each of whom hold a special place in my heart. I am the kind of person that walks five minutes out of the way to pet a pup. Meet my pets No other pets.

Christine was a great sitter for our pup! She was very responsive during the planning phases and sent us updates & photos throughout the weekend. Emme came home sufficiently tired out from all the playing. :) We would definitely book with Christine again!

Jimmy had a great stay with Christine! Christine was super accommodating with our pick up/drop off, and sent us updates and pictures during the stay. Highly recommend her services!

Gibson had a great time and Christine pampered him like he was her own puppy. I would highly recommend Christine for anyone who needs a dog sitter and we will definitely use her again. Thank you Christine!

I found Christine to be pleasant to work with as she took time out to meet Bruno, know his walking habits and was very accommodating towards any of our concerns. Christine showed us how caring she is towards Bruno as he quickly became part of her family. I would recommend Christine to anyone who has large or small dogs and need a caring responsible dog sitter. Bruno was well cared for and looked very comfortable at her home in the pictures we were sent during his 2-week stay.

Information Christine S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there is anything they are afraid of i.e. thunderstorms, vacuums, brooms, etc. to ensure that I can plan accordingly. I would also like to know any medical conditions they may have. Lastly, I would like to know their favorite treat, once again so I could plan accordingly, and make their stay the most enjoyable and comfortable it can be.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks Near my apartment, there is a lovely esplanade where I would walk your dog frequently. Along the esplanade are plenty of parks and dog runs for your dog to enjoy. Battery Park City is a great location for pets, as the air is fresh and the water walkway is lovely at all times of the year. Your dog's sleeping arrangement If your dog is allowed on furniture, on the bed with me. If you have strict rules for furniture, the dog will sleep on a dog bed in my bedroom. It also depends on where the dog is most comfortable, and feels the most at ease. Time I'll spend with your dog I currently work from home, and leave the house for never more than an hour or two. A large majority of my day would be spent with your dog.
