A typical day

For cats, I will play with any toys they love to play with! Whether that’s toys on a string, a laser, or a toss-able toy! For dogs, I can go on walks for however long they need (weather permitting in case it’s storming or extremely hot). We can go for pup cups in my car and dog parks as well! I am also well versed in belly rubs and tug of war.

Pet care experience

I grew up always having a dog. I’ve had beagles, a black lab and a pit bull/mastiff mix. I’ve dog sat chihuahuas before and grew up around many more breeds! I’ve helped dogs who need medications and also need diaper change. I would love to meet your puppy!

Christa did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away and I really appreciate how flexible and helpful she was as my travel involved last minute changes. I am so grateful I could rely on her to make sure my cats was very well cared for while I was gone.

Christa was amazing watching our cat while we were out of town. She was very thorough with her check ins and appreciated the pictures and video. Our cat seemed comfortable with her even tho she isn’t usually with strangers! She even brought up our trash can and a package. Would highly recommend!

Christa did an absolutely amazing job taking care of my cat while I was gone. I was nervous to be away on an extended trip but she went above and beyond to make sure he was cared for while I was out and her communication and updates on how he was doing were great. Definitely recommend her for any needing pet care.
