Safety, trust & environment

I believe pets thrive best in their own familiar environment, so I provide care in your home to keep them comfortable and secure. At home, I have two dogs—one a senior who values his own space—so I understand the importance of respecting each pet’s personality and routines. I adapt easily to any type of home or setup and prioritize safety, consistency, and trust so both you and your pet feel at ease.

Information Christen O. would like to know about your pet

Please share any special details about your pet—such as medication schedules, feeding times, behaviors, or quirks—so I can tailor my care to their unique needs. The more I know, the better I can make their time with me feel like home.

A typical day

When your pet is in my care, they’ll enjoy a balance of exercise, play, and relaxation designed around their needs. • Morning Care (if applicable): Fresh water, feeding, and a potty break or short walk to start the day right. • Midday Fun: Playtime, cuddles, or a walk for exercise and mental stimulation. (On weekends) • Evening Routine: Dinner, a longer walk or play session, and winding down with affection so they feel calm and loved. Throughout the day, I provide updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured that your furry family member is happy and safe.

Once again, Christen provided excellent care of my furry family. I appreciated the detailed updates and time she spent showing them love while I was away. Also came home to a very clean house, which is always appreciated.

Christen is fantastic with my senior dog. He is so excited when she walks in the door and I know when I leave he is in the best of care. Thank you Christen!!

Christen was amazing with our pups. We have a senior dog that requires medication because he has Addisons and she took great care of him. We also have a younger pup that has a lot of energy. Both were extremely happy during her stay and constantly gave her kisses. This tells me they enjoyed having her around. Christen constantly gave updates throughout the day, which I greatly appreciated, and sent photos. She is one of the best dog sitters we have had. Our dogs had all the attention and love and I felt comfortable that my pups were in good hands while we were away. My dogs did all the things they normally did when we were home and it was important to have the consistency for them. She also took great care with our home. Thank you Christen.

Christen was absolutely amazing and I can’t wait for her to watch our fur-daughter again. Our dog can be a bit high maintenance but Christen handled her with ease. Christen is also an excellent communicator and kept us in the loop with text messages and pictures frequently. I would highly recommend Christen to anyone who needed assistance with their pet.
