Christa took excellent care of our dog while we were away on a trip. Another reviewer mentioned flexibility and easy with handover and everything, I can only echo this!

Christa is a great dog sitter who truly speaks and understands the language of dogs. She immediately connected with Finn, and he listened to her right away. It gives us great peace of mind knowing she has experience with large, reactive dogs, that makes all the difference for us.

It was such a relief to meet Christa! To find her such a lovely and responsible person, I could absolutely trust her with my dog. He’s quite a tough dog to handle with lots of precautions, but she was perfectly able to deal with him and fully respected all my rules with discipline. They got along very well, and I was impressed - especially it was my first time ever to leave my dog with a stranger. Christa was also easy to communicate with, responsive, sent me updates and was flexible. I will go exclusive from here on out!

Schedule

I’m currently a PhD student working at the Hubrecht Institute. My big dog recently passed away and would love to take care of other dogs. I have plenty of time in the weekends as well as evenings!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment building and I know how important it is for your fur baby to feel safe and comfortable. Willing to discuss their particular needs!

It is important to know if the dog is reactive to other dogs or particularly breeds or other animals. Also if they are on any medication or have other have any particular issues.
