Highlights
Pet care experience
Gentle, Experienced Care
Please note that I’m not able to hold dates without a confirmed booking. I am a dedicated animal care professional with a lifelong passion for working with animals. I was raised with a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and insects, which gave me early and consistent hands-on experience in animal care. My background includes over 10 years of pet sitting experience, volunteer work with local shelters, and employment in both pet retail and boarding facility environments. I also completed a two-year veterinary assisting program, providing training in basic medical care, emergency response, medication administration, and CPR. I have experience caring for senior pets and animals with special needs. I look forward to providing reliable, knowledgeable, and attentive care for your pet.

Safety, trust & environment
I try to keep things as consistent with the current routine of the pet as possible. This helps keep anxiety down for the pet and their human.
Ratings and reviews
Christel arrived on time and immediately made friends with our rambunctious Havanese. He came home from his walk happy and wagging his tail.

Christel did a great job taking care of our kitties while we were away! Easy, clear communication.

Christel provides great updates and is very sweet and reliable!


Absolutely wonderful! Sosuke was well cared for and happy when I got back. Thank you so much!

Christel took great care of my cat!

Somehow she got my shy cat to warm up to her on only the third visit… I was impressed, haha. Well done!
