Availability
I work full time, but I work from home 3 days a week. This allows me to take regularly scheduled breaks for heading outside for a quick walk, play or interaction. My daughter and I live in the house (a 16 year old whiz with doggos!) and she spends most evenings interacting with our fur girl and loves entertaining the neighborhood dogs. My weekend availability is slightly less than weekday, but if the schedule fits I'm happy to assist! I'll keep my calendar updated.

About Christen H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My fur girl loves to play and discover new dogs (as long as your dog does not have an aggressive nature), and my boy dog just does his own thing. We have a fully fenced in back yard (6ft fence). That's great for those that could be jumpers! Lots of access to local parks and I LOVE walking - I walk all the time and would love to bring a doggo along with me for lots of exercise. Your dog would have full range of my house and we invite doggos up on the furniture for cuddle time (or respect your wishes for keeping them in your routine of staying off furniture) - lots of comfy dog beds in most rooms!
Information Christen H. would like to know about your pet
I am a canine massage therapist and canine first aid instructor, so I am quite educated and confident in reading dog behaviour and understanding how to work with individual personalities and needs and emergencies. The more I know about your pooch, the better! I am happy to provide your dog with some bonus care and attention with some massage if you ok it for them! This helps anxious dogs, arthritic dogs, senior dogs and athletes! It's really for MOST dogs. Your doggo will get all the love and care they receive at home as I try to keep the care as familiar as they get from their home environment.
A typical day
Love to take them on walks! Lots of great walking space around the neighborhood. Quiet, safe, parks, friendly neighbors! I have a good sized back yard, so I'm happy to take your dog out there as well to play fetch, run around or just laze in the sun if thats what they like!

Pet care experience
I have been a pet owner for over 20 years. Through the years I have fostered, rescued and dog sat many furry friends. I have taken many training courses and worked with a number of local experts. I have cared for many seniors with aging issues and my current furry kid is a special needs dog (mostly blind, missing one eye). I have recently become a Certified Canine Massage Therapist and practice regularly. I am also a Canine first Aid instructor (and people CPR instructor), so your fur baby is in great hands!
Reviews
Christen is amazing with animals!! And such a sweet person.
Super reliable and trustworthy with my dogs. Great communication.
Christen is a wonderful sitter! She is so kind and caring and I can tell that she really loved my pup. She went above and beyond to make my pup and myself feel comfortable and we are so appreciative. Would highly recommend a stay with Christen.
Christen was great with our fur baby. Lots of updates. He was in great hands and well loved.
