#1 lover of K9 & feline furbabies

My genuine interest and love for my own babies coupled with their happy, carefree, and free-roam attitudes makes me a prime & the right candidate to be your pet's new friend. I have two furbabies that I absolutely love & adore. I understand the importance and severity of wanting them to go... unfortunately, they simply can't for whatever reason. So, you do the next best thing, you hire me. Give me the opportunity to extend my love, adoration and safe environment to your furbaby (canine or feline). If you hire me, worrying about your pet will be the least of your worries, as it should be. Help me to help you give your pet a vacation-like stay while you're away. You'll be glad you did.

Chrissy way exceeded our expectations! She made it a point to regularly post pictures and and draft up very comprehensive notes about how our kitties were doing. We could not have asked for a better first experience with Rover, especially when we had such a diligent cat-sitter like Chrissy.

The most professional sitter I've had. She's great at communicating and she sent so many pictures of my babies that I knew they were in good hands. I highly recommend her.

Apphia did a wonderful job! She communicated very well & offered or did things for my two fur babies that I didn’t even ask for. She was very intuitive & got to know their personalities, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend her :)

Apphia was fantastic with Frodo! He is a fairly recent rescue with a rough past. She was patient, welcoming, and even worked with him on certain commands and tasks. Her 2 dogs were such great sports and got a long great with him too! She knew I was having a hard time being away from Frodo for almost a week and sent pictures daily to put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Apphia!

No one loves animals more than Apphia! She has 2 fur babies if her own and she is very loving and attentive to them. She understands that fur parents each have preferences that should be acknowledged and followed to the T. She has personally walked me through dog sitting for my personal friends. She picks up on animal's non verbal cues and can quickly figure out what they need food, water, medical attention for pain or dietary concerns as a result of their poop consistency. her heart goes out to every single animal she encounters and I'm confident she will love your pet just like she does love her own. Choose her and your pet will be treated like a VIP!!!!
