Information Christel S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or needs a human present overnight, that way I can give them my full attention rather than booking multiple clients

A typical day

As a mama of an energetic shepherd, I will provide your animals with plenty of exercise and attention. I can run with them if that’s preferred or take them on multiple casual strolls to get in all of the smells!

I will love them like my own! :)

Pet care experience

I absolutely love and adore our furry counterparts. Since they do not have the ability to speak to us with words, I am extra attentive and sensitive to their wants, needs, and communications. I’ve had animals my entire life including dogs, cats, turtles, snakes, and birds. I now have two fur babies, Orion and Cooper, a 7 year old German Shepherd & 8 year old orange Tabby. Now that they are a little older, I have time to share my love and attention with other animals as well😃 After getting out of the Marine Corps, I attended the University of Maryland where I graduated with a Masters in Criminal Justice. I plan to use my education and experience professionally in the future, but for now I would love to apply my knowledge, attentiveness, and love to your fur babies! I maintain a very clean and safe home for my pets who get along well with all other animals. I can guarantee your pets would be happy and safe here. I have a fenced in yard where we frequently play and enjoy the sun. And inside the home I can ensure you that your pets will get plenty of cuddles, love, and treats (with your permission).

Christel was absolutely wonderful with watching my cat! She sent me updates everyday and checked in daily to see if she could help in any way while my husband and I were gone. We came home and our cat was so happy (which hasn’t always been the case) and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Christel: she’s friendly, caring, and attentive!

Christel was really a wonderful house sitter, she took great of our dog London, even sleeping with her on the couch, and she was familiar with parrots, so Chloe our yellow-headed amazon was happy to be out of her cage! You won't find a nicer and more competent sitter than Christel!

When I think of someone watching my pets, it makes me nervous because they are your family. You want someone who will treat them like their own. Someone who is an animal lover and who you can trust. Knowing that they are in the best of hands while you are away, alleviates so much stress. I can't name a better fit than Christel. She has a 4 year old German Sheppard and a cat named Cooper. She goes above and beyond for her pets, as they are apart of her family. She is a Marine Veteran that loves animals dearly. She is very trust worthy and responsible. Finding someone with these qualities is super important. When people go away on vacation, they want to feel like their animals are in the best hands. Christel is the perfect fit for this position.

Christel is one of the kindest and most caring people I have ever met. She cares for every pet like it’s her own and you can feel comfortable having her watch your pet knowing she will go above and beyond to make them feel at home.
