About: I have experience with small animals, exotics, farm and domesticated pets. My passion for caring for animals came after my soul dog passed away from aggressive cancer. This led me to honor his memory through work at my local humane society. I have cared for kittens and puppies through senior and hospice. I am able to dedicate myself to your pets needs physically, emotionally and medically. From playtime to cuddles and resting to education for your pet I’m here to do it all. I love caring for all pets, along with helping keep them stimulated physically, mentally and happy! I am a fear free certified animal care giver and enrichment specialist. I left shelter work recently to have more flexibility for my own pets and family. I love addressing behavior concerns including barrier reactivity, animal and people reactivity, fear aggression and any other concerning behaviors. My partners work gives me the flexibility to be a stay at home pet parent and travel when we are able. I have most days free for daily and/or weekly care. I am also available to travel if your pet is needing care while traveling with you. I have experience in caring and calming animals from everyday stressors to longer induced traumas. I use techniques to lower fear, anxiety and stress. I also give some very good kitty and doggy massages. Safety, mental and physical wellbeing is my priority. I want your pet to feel loved and secure as if they were my own. Working in an animal shelter for 3 years gave me the experience to see and understand so many different animals and behaviors. I’m committed to your pets success. Lgtbq+ friendly care for everyone and every pet.
“Misti is absolutely amazing!! She has been taking him for regular walks for about a month and she always takes such good care of him. It is so nice to not have to worry about my dog when I’m gone! I absolutely recommend!!”


About: I've had pets and have done animal husbandry all my life. I have two medium sized dogs who get along great with others. Large fenced yard is loved by all. My husband and I are retired and home all day most days. We have a regular exercise routine that includes the dogs, walking, playing ball, biking on my recumbent, swimming, etc. We have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur babies company. We also have comfortable extra rooms when a dog needs alone time. Max is my Australian Sheperd and he loves to play and gets along wonderfully with others. Hope is a part Aussie and getting old. She often likes to go be by herself.
About: Owner of a Siberian husky for over a decade. Have trained her since she was a puppy. She is now a senior and requires minimal walks compared to when she was young. She gets along with cats really well and is around farm animals frequently. Working 40 hours a week while managing pet care is essential, I am able to work around my schedule as fit for the animal's needs. Please inform me if any needs are requested to make sure everything, like fresh water, is taken care of. I offer care at the clients home, which I have experience in. I am usually in the same room as my pets, so I will often be in the same area with your pet while they are under supervision. Please inform me at least a day in advance for booking.
“We are SO happy we found Christina! Her service is amazing and meets my dog's physical, mental and social needs. We've been looking for someone who does off-leash adventures and are beyond excited about continuing to book with Christina. She is clearly knowledgable, responsable, and loves dogs. My dog comes home from her adventures happy, tired, and ready to relax for the rest of the day. Highly recommend you reach out to Christina!”

About: I have extensive experience working with anxious dogs and understand the patience, and gentle approach they require. As both a veterinary professional and the owner of an anxious dog, I am skilled at building trust to help nervous pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. Senior dogs are another area where I have significant experience! I understand the importance of maintaining medication schedules and am comfortable administering a variety of medications. My background in veterinary medicine has given me the knowledge and confidence to care for pets with unique medical and behavioral needs. Whether your dog is anxious, highly energetic, affectionate, independent, or a little bit stubborn, I want to providing care that meets their individual needs while ensuring they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for. Thursday through Sunday, I have full availability and can provide attentive care throughout the day. I also send regular photo updates and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Monday through Wednesday, I work 12-hour shifts. During those days, I am available for overnight stays and can complete potty breaks and daily care before work (around 6:00 AM), during my lunch break (approximately 12:00–1:00 PM), and after work (around 8:00 PM). water is always available and refreshed regularly. I am highly accustomed to following structured feeding and medication schedules. You can trust that your pet's meals and medications will be given on time following your instructions! I enjoy providing plenty of affection and attention to pets who seek it. Whether your dog loves to be out playing fetch or prefers a little more relaxing, I adjust my care to their individual personality and comfort level. Communication is a priority for me. I typically provide photo and text updates every 1–2 hours so you can stay updated on your pet while you're away. If you prefer fewer updates, I am happy to accommodate your preferences.
About: I have a high drive working German Shepherds, and husky. I have always been full of energy and taking care of crackhead dogs give me a lot of patience, so puppies and active dogs are my favorite and specialty! And I've been bitten and scratched enough times, it almost tickles... Almost During hot months my dogs are given all attention in the evening/at night and during cold months my dogs are given all attention in the afternoon so there is a period of time where I can help take care of yours outside of pet care and work! I will make sure to follow strict instructions and be very attentive and watchful of your pup! My own dogs schedule consist of playing, walking, training, cuddling, feeding and potty every 4-6 hours! And I would love to treat your pet with the same amount of needs whenever you feel you can't! No dog left behind!

About: I recently moved back in to the area from California. We are still getting our bearings off the city and finding new places to play and explore As a disabled veteran and single mom, i am home most of the time, outside of some time at the gym or taking my 3 year old to the park. She loves animals, is quite gentle, and is never just left with animals alone. She tends to be helpful in filling Lola's bowl with water and food and tossing a treat to show some love. If kids are not okay, I am child free Saturday through Sunday afternoons, for those times when you need to be doggy free. Fresh water is provided inside and out on the deck to bask, as well as a constant eye when not out for a walk. I tend to avoid dog parks with other people's pets under my watch, I'd prefer to maintain a safe and predictable environment.
