Pet care experience

I have enjoyed working professionally with animals since 2007. I have experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, medical and behavioral needs. As a teen I began working as an asst. veterinary technician. Through working with the groomer that was on staff I learned the art of grooming and became linked with the world of pet care. I have groomed, trained, boarded, and offered dog walkings services for almost two decades. Please contact in advance of your trip so I can meet you and your pets to learn all I need to know to give them the best care. Thank you!

Christa was great with my senior dog Riggs that needs some special attention and was also easy to communicate with. I would not hesitate to use her again!

Christa is a wonderful dogsitter. She was especially patient with our terrier Enzo who can be very demanding. The house was left impeccable and Enzo was very happy. I would highly recommend her for any dog sitting job in your home. I would definitely hire her again.

Christa was fantastic!! I stupidly put in the wrong dates and only realized last minute. She was super accommodating and the furr kids had a great time with Toby.
