Pet care experience
Please reach out if you need NON-OVERNIGHT HOUSE SITTING, I charge a lower rate! I live in Astoria and adore all animals. I have one dog of my own and have fostered others. I also grew up with cats and am skilled in caring for their needs. I am an approved foster with three different rescue organizations, where I have received animal care training. Over the past two years I have helped many pups acclimate to the big city and find loving homes. I would love to spend time with your animal and give you peace of mind while traveling, your pet will receive lots of love and attention. I take special care to listen to all of your requests and are located right near the park so your dog will get as much exercise and outdoor time as they need. I take special care to follow all of your instructions and am knowledgeable about administering medications if needed. I know first hand how hard it is to leave them and I want you to know they are in good care! You will receive lots of video and photo updates during their stay. If your dog prefers a crate as their safe space, I am happy to accommodate. Other than that, they have free roam of the apartment and are allowed to cuddle up where ever they please.
Reviews
Christa came to my rescue when my dog care fell through at the last minute. My dog has some anxiety and doesn’t always eat well, so I was nervous about leaving her with a stranger for the first time, but I immediately felt comfortable with Christa and my dog warmed up to her very quickly. She patiently worked with my dog to get her to eat and was an all-around great sitter. I came home to a happy, healthy dog and will rebook!
Christa was so lovely to work with! She was abundantly communicative thought her stay with our dog. She asked us plenty of questions to clarify our dog’s habits and needs, and followed them perfectly. Our dog also seemed to happy and at ease with Christa too. Thank you so much!!
Christa is a superstar sitter. She watched my shy senior cat over a weekend and accomplished something remarkable: got my cat to come out and play. I was impressed with Christa’s attention to detail, her reports (photos & videos!), and overall service. I returned to a happy home and I’m pretty sure my cat already misses Christa’s company. Can’t recommend her enough.
Christa always takes phenomenal care of our pup! She is an excellent communicator leading up to and during the time she’s looking after our goldendoodle. She gives regular updates and pictures, which we love, and she is a pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend her more highly!
