Marvelous Mutts in Lake Mohawk!!
My husband and I have lived in Lake Mohawk for 22 years. We have 4 wonderful children, all of which love animals. In addition to our children, we have a wonderfully trained female Havachon named Bella, whom we have raised since she was a puppy. Bella loves to play with other dogs, however she mostly enjoys laying and cuddling most of the day. We are an active family and love all animals and outdoorsy activities, as well as the occasional lazy day, vegging out and playing a competitive game of Ticket to Ride or cuddling on the couch with our pup to watch a classic movie like our favorite, The Goonies! Both my husband and I grew up with dogs, and when I was a teenager, I raised a dog for the Seeing Eye. After getting married, our first fur baby was our beloved Toby, our Shi-a-poo, who we raised as a pup until he recently passed away at the old age of 19! After staying home with my children and fur babies for over 15 years, I recently went back to my first job, a teacher, in the local school district. While we no longer offer pet sitting in our home, we would love to offer drop in visits, and daily walks afterschool, evenings or during the weekends to give your fur baby some lov'n and activity while you're away! Depending on your fur baby's needs, during each visit, we will check food & water levels, give a 5 - 10 minute play session and a quick potty break outside. If you want, leave us a leash and we'll take your pup on a 20-30 min walk around the neighborhood to explore and get some exercise! We want to ease your worries that while you're away, your pup will be given lots of love and care!

Safety, trust & environment
Upon arrival, I always let my furry friends smell and get acquainted with me before feeding or letting outside. I want my new furry friends to trust me completely that I'm there to give them the best care possible!
Ratings and reviews
Fantastic same day service! Thank you for helping us when everything else went sideways! Our dog was in good hands.

Tilou is sometime a rambunctious but loving puppy. Christen was however very gracious and Tilou loved the whole family especially the children of course; he had a lot of fun. I recommend them very much.
Christen and family were excellent! Great communication and care. Our dog spent two days with Christen and was entertained and exhausted! He spent time playing with a new dog friend and seemed sad to leave. Five stars!

Chester came back happy and healthy from his stay with Christen and Tony. I didn't worry about him a bit!

We had Christen come over to our house to feed and walk our dog, and also feed our cat. She went above and beyond my expectations, bringing in the newspapers and cleaning the cat's litter box, along with keeping me updated to how my pets were doing via text messaging, I would highly recommend Christen, and will certainly use her services again !
Our recent vacation required us to find alternate plans for our dog while we were away. I happened to find Rover through a Google search and came across Christen's profile. She was able to accommodate us on fairly short notice and during the holidays no less. I think our dog was in great hands and based on a few pictures Christen sent, I think our dog agreed. I defeated Nigel's would recommend Rover to others and Christen and her family to anyone who lives in the area. Thank you!!
