Highlights
Pet care experience
We'd love to meet your fur baby!
I have been dog sitting since I was in my early twenties. I have done everything from quick walks to month long stays. I am comfortable managing special diets, helping special needs (elderly) cats and dogs and giving medications (including injectables).
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Christa was wonderful taking care of my diabetic kitty on short notice. It’s always nice to know that he is in good hands.
Christa responded quickly when I needed someone to help walk our dog on short notice. She was timely, reliable and super sweet. Thank you again for taking great care of our pup, would definitely book again!
Christa and Brian are amazing, they treat our dogs like family and shower them with love. Our pups have stayed with them multiple times now and are genuinely excited when we arrive at their place it’s like they get a vacation too. Can’t recommend highly enough.
Christa is a pro in every way. From booking, to meet and greet, to dog walking time, I never had to guess when she was coming or what was happening. It’s such a relief having excellent communication with someone new. She was very sweet and patient with my anxious dog, and our cat. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a predictable, professional, caring person to help with their pets.
Christa was always punctual for our scheduled walks, and was excellent at communicating. My dog loves her! She gets so excited when she sees her. I highly recommend Christa, and will work with her again.
Christa was a pleasure and a great communicator. Would definitely book her again.

I work part-time a few days a week. I am usually gone for 2-4 hours at a time but my co-host and husband is semi-retired and home most days.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fully fenced yard and we live three blocks from Laurelhurst dog park. We're happy to welcome pets on the furniture and our hardwood floors have seen plenty of paws!
A typical day
I'm an early riser so first thing's first- potty & coffee! Depending on your dog's energy level we jump straight into a walk or ease into the day. If I have to work, I don't leave the house until mid morning and I'm home mid afternoon (gone generally 2-4 hours). My husband is usually home all day. Laurelhurst is a great place to go for walks on our quiet tree-lined streets. We'll likely encounter lots of furry friends. And if your dog is OK being off-leash, the dog park is a super fun place to sniff and play.

- We're happy to lay low at home or explore our neighborhood with your pooch. Help us get to know your pup: How do they do on a leash? Do they like to meet other people/ dogs on our walks? Do they like car rides? Do they prefer we steer clear of kids on our walks? How often does you dog need to pee? What time do they usually have breakfast/ dinner Dog treats OK? Human food treats OK? (ie chicken or turkey) We want your animal's routine to be as normal as possible, so let us know how we can make them most comfortable!
