Availability

Caring for animals is part of my everyday life and routine. Staying active is very important to me, so daily walks and outdoor time are already built into my schedule. I love getting dogs out and about for fresh air, exercise, and enrichment — it benefits both of us! You can count on me to make your pet’s physical activity and well-being a consistent priority.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for every pet as if they were my own family. I understand that when you’re away, they may need extra reassurance, attention, and love. My goal is to make them feel safe, secure, and deeply cared for in your absence — never replacing you, but lovingly filling the time until you return. Your pet’s comfort, emotional well-being, and safety are always my top priority.

Information Christal G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any special needs, medical conditions, allergies, or medications your dog may have. I also appreciate learning about their personality, routines, preferences, fears, or triggers. The more I understand about your pet ahead of time, the better I can provide personalized care and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

A typical day

Take the pet on a walk, teach them tricks, play catch with a ball, love up on them, interact as they need me to. Just keep the dog content and happy.

A Warmth Animals Love

Pet care experience

Animals have always seemed to gravitate toward me — and I feel the same way about them. I naturally connect with pets in a way that helps them feel safe, understood, and at ease. I’m confident and consistent when it comes to setting healthy boundaries, while also providing plenty of affection, patience, and reassurance. Whether your pet needs playful engagement, calm companionship, or gentle guidance, I create a balanced environment where they can relax and be themselves. Many animals quickly find comfort in my presence — and there’s nothing I love more than earning that trust.

I am so grateful to Christal and her family for opening their home and taking such wonderful care of my two girls for 10 days. From the very beginning, Christal made me feel completely comfortable and reassured. She sent me daily pictures and updates, which meant so much to me and gave me peace of mind knowing they were happy, safe, and being well taken care of. Her entire family welcomed my girls and cared for them as if they were their own. It was clear that they were not just being watched, they were genuinely loved, spoiled, and treated like part of the family. Christal was also incredibly understanding and flexible when we had to pick them up later than our scheduled time because of unexpected luggage delays. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Knowing my girls were in such loving hands allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying about them. I am beyond thankful to Christal and her family for loving and caring for my girls so well. I would absolutely trust them with my girls again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets with the same love and care they would give their own. ❤️

I’m reviewing again after a month of her watching my dog 2-3 days a week because Christal deserves ALL the praise. I genuinely couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my dog when I’m at work. She plays with him, gets him to go potty, feeds him by hand which is so funny, she responds insanely quick, suggests things I should get for my dog, sends me TONS of photos from every visit…in short she does a FANTASTIC job. If you need someone to watch your fur baby while you’re away Christal is the person to ask.
