“Shania provided professional and loving care to our two dogs for a weekend. She also took perfect care of our home while staying there. We will definitely ask her to watch our dogs again.”


“Amazing experience with Emily, who dog sat our two fur babies overnight. Our mini dachshund is shy with most people but immediately ran up to Emily. This was our first time using an overnight dog sitter, and we had no worries or concerns, which is a huge relief. Dogs were calm and happy when we got home. Highly recommend Emily for your dog sitting needs!”


“Emma was great with Boomer! He's a big boy and can be intimidating but Emma and he made fast friends and she very quickly knew him for the sweetheart he is. She took great care of him so that we could relax and enjoy our time away. We will check with Emma again in the future when the need arises.”


About: With over 21 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, I offer dependable, knowledgeable care tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I’ve worked with everything from high-energy puppies learning the ropes, to senior pets who need a gentle, patient touch. I’m experienced with a wide range of dog and cat breeds—including exotic and high-maintenance types—and have hands-on experience in dog daycare, medication administration, and post-injury rehabilitation. I’m also pet CPR certified, a Canine Good Citizen (CGC) evaluator, and deeply familiar with dog behavior and psychology. Whether your pet needs training support, extra playtime, or specialized care, I’m here to help them feel safe, loved, and understood. Pet care is a priority in my life, and I make sure it fits seamlessly into my daily routine. The most I’m typically away is just a few hours at a time. I schedule my day to ensure pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and bathroom breaks. Whether your pet needs regular walks, playtime, medication, or just some comforting company, I’m committed to providing reliable, consistent care they can count on. I exclusively care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, or administering medications, I provide attentive, respectful care while maintaining your home’s cleanliness and security. I treat every pet like my own and every home with the utmost professionalism.

“We trust Christine with our babies every time we go away and never have to worry. We have a trouble maker and a reactive dog, and she knows exactly how to handle them both. She gives them even more attention and care than we do when we’re home and she’s gone above and beyond for us and our dogs. The neighbors even comment on how great she is with them!”


“Taylor stayed with our babies for 4 nights, sent photos and left the house just as clean as when she arrived! She was very responsive and all four of the babies were relaxed and happy when we returned. We'll definitely be asking her back!”

Ryan N.
“I have a shy little terrier named Maeve who struggles with separation anxiety, so I needed someone patient and understanding to watch her while I was out. Ryan knew exactly how to interact with her to earn her trust and help her come out of her shell. I always felt completely confident leaving Maeve in his care. I also hired Ryan for training, and in just a couple of sessions, he helped me get her on a regular feeding schedule, improve her leash skills, and boost her overall confidence. I highly recommend Ryan.”
