I'll be your dog's best friend!

Pet care experience

I am a compassionate animal caretaker and humane educator with over 20 years of experience working in veterinary hospitals and animal shelters. I am experienced with dogs, cats, small animals, exotics, farm animals and horses. I specialize in animals with special needs, geriatric and hospice care. I have a degree in Animal Studies, as well as undergraduate training in veterinary technology, so I am prepared to assist with a variety of medical needs at home, such as medications or fluid administration. I love and am familiar with all types of companion animals, so whether yours be a dog, a cat, a rabbit, a potbellied pig, a chicken, or another species, you can rest assured that you pet will be well cared for and happen upon your return! I look forward to meeting you and your pets and discussing all of your petsitting needs so you can relax and trust that your pets are safe and happy when you are at work or out of town!

Christiana was absolutely wonderful during her time with Dory. I booked her for a walk and got no less than three pictures and updates during and after the walk. I have never felt more comfortable with my dog in the care of another person. If I could give more than a five star rating, I would have. I cannot wait to use her spectacular services again!

Christiana is the most trustworthy, loving, and exciting person you'll ever meet! Anyone who encounters her will know that they are lucky to even have a moment of her time. There is no more qualified person to choose to walk your dogs, or to care for your dogs while you go on vacation. Did you notice that she actually trained professionally as a Vetrenary Technician? Yes. Few people have. She is also fully trained and generously experienced in teaching children and adults how to care for the animals in their care. She is extraordinarily patient. She has also been in charge of the care and wellbeing of hundreds of other people's pets (of all sorts) and knows very competently what to do both when things go smoothly, and when your pet gets sick when you are away. She will know what to do, and she will do it with professional level insight, and save you from the stress and uncertainty of leaving your loved ones in the care of just some neighborhood person down the block. When you put Christiana in charge, you are getting anyone's dream caretaker. Trust Christiana. Why would anyone ever choose anyone else when they can have the very best? She is the best!

Information Christiana M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have any special needs or concerns and I will make sure to address them. I am comfortable administering medications and have cared for many dogs and other animals with special needs. I am also experienced with many other species, so I am more than happy to take care of your cat(s), small animal(s), bird(s), rabbit(s), reptile(s) and more!

A typical day

Depending on your dog's needs and your desires, I can take your pup on walks in the neighborhood, on local trails, or to dog parks! I love hiking and long walks, and will happily adjust the pace to meet your dog's needs. At home, your pup will get excellent care and attention, plus ample play time and grooming as needed. If you have other pets, such as cats or small animals, I will make sure they get all the TLC and attention they need, and will also make sure they always have a clean litter box, fresh water, yummy food to eat, and anything else they might need or desire!
