About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I started walking my neighbors dogs when I was 8 in exchange for a cookie! My experience grew when I got into high school. I began watching over my family's bulldog, chihuahua puppy, my younger siblings and the house when my parents would leave. They started recommending me their friends, and I would house sit with their furry friends as well!! As a college student, I have a lot of free time with my class schedule. Each class day is different, but I always have 3 hours before my next class. More specifically my classes are Monday and Wednesday:10-11:20 Tuesday and Thursday: 9:30-10:50 and 2:00-3:20 Friday, Saturday and Sunday: Completely free!!! I am passionate about nurturing furry friends and for maintaining cozy spaces! Through daily walks, belly rubs, occasional treats, and lots of snuggles, I ensure that you pet feels like their favorite humans never left them! I also will be sure to keep all corners of the house clean, attend to the garden, and of course clean up after myself.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, a wide variety of animals, I have owned all of these animals and they have all thrived under my care. I currently have no other commitments, I can fit pet care very easily into my day to day, because I am a student it means that I have summer off and therefore can easily fit pet care into my routines. I have a fenced yard, but no pets anymore, I do watch a lot of my friends animals as well in my house, but I have had pets my whole life up until about 4 months ago.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. Have cared for injured and premature animals in the past. From dogs with broken legs, just born kittens and hurt fletchlings. I have an interesting, ever changing work schedule I have to work around, but I am extremely flexible and committed around it, even for hours late at night. I care for all animals with kindness and patience. Will clean up after animals and make sure any changes in schedule/events are reported as soon possible.
About: I have been pet sitting for 5+ years, I have experience with animals of all ages and all sizes, and I am comfortable with multiple animals at once. I promise to love on and take care of your babies like you do! I just finished school and am job hunting, so I have lots of time to love on your fur babies!! I can come to you any time during the day/week and walk, feed, or overnight sit your pets! I will spend lots of time playing with, walking, feeding, and caring for your pets each visit I make. I am passionate about animals getting the proper amount of time spent with them while owners are away, so you don't need to worry about me just dropping in and doing the bare minimum then leaving, and that's a promise!

Christa S.
“Christa is the best dog person I know. I don’t think she’s met a dog she doesn’t love. We have two, a golden and an old cantankerous Pom. She’s so patient with the Pom and is more than capable of managing both. She has watched the dogs and the house while we’re out of town and is always conscientious and thoughtful, sending regular updates with pictures. She is our first pick any time we need someone to watch the house or the dogs.”

Add to that the fact that he is a remarkably responsible young man, and you have someone who I'm happy to have take care of any or all of my animals.”
