Dream Hobby

Pet care experience

Hello, I recently moved to the Scott AFB area with my husband. I'm an animal lover to the core and have dog sat since I was 12 y/o and had a handwritten ad in my hometown vet office. As a dog mom myself, I love being able to provide excellent care so you can feel at ease. Experience: -19 years of dog sitting experience - 7 years of SPCA International Volunteer work relocating animals service members rescue while deployed - Fostering and dog training experience through PAWS animal shelter - 1 year assisting overseas veterinarian with medication administration, immunizations, blood draws, procedures

This was our first time using a petsitter. We were 200% happy with Christi as our housesitter - she far far exceeded our expectations. Christi clearly loves animals and our dog and cat adored having her take care of them. There were many trips to the dog park, and lots of TLC, and for us, getting daily photos and updates was wonderful. We felt absolutely secure being away for 10 days knowing that our home and pets were in Christi's very capable care.

Christi took great care of our dog while we were away. She is very responsible and a welcome guest in our home.

I had deployed with Christi over the last year in Sinai, Egypt. While there, Christi continuously showed her unconditional care for all of the animals that were on the base. She housed and personally cared for multiple dogs throughout her time there, and always reached out to assist with any other animals that needed care. The amazing thing was that this in no way had anything to do with her day to day job. She gave her time and love to the animals out of the goodness of her heart, with no desire for any recognition. In addition, she has been involved with the process of getting a handful of animals relocated from Egypt into caring homes in the US. Christi genuinely has a passion and love for animals, and as a 'mother' of two dogs myself, there is no doubt that she would be the first person I would want to take care of my boys.

Christi had helped me watch multiple animals during our tour in Egypt. From dogs to kittens she shows unconditional love and patience to all animals. She has cared for dogs that needed medication everyday and seems to have a way with animals. Very smart girl! I would have her watch my pets anytime.
