Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Christie and my partner is Daniel. We've been taking care of our pup, Baobao since he was 2 months old. From the very beginning, we have been training Baobao using a positive reinforcement method. He is crate-trained, housetrained, and incredibly social with people and other dogs. We will take care of your pet like they're our own. When we spend time with your fur baby, we like to stimulate them with a variety of physical exercise, mental stimulation, obedience training, and of course, lots and lots of playtime and cuddles! We like using positive reinforcement to encourage good behavior and eradicate those you might not like so much. So let us know if there is anything you'd like us to work on while they stay with us! We are available most weekends to watch pets, starting on Friday afternoons. Daniel also has the option to work from home, so we can discuss other options if desired! We live in a spacious 1 bedroom apartment (~900 ft2) with plenty of toys and concrete-floored space for the pups. There is also a large dog park right across the street for plenty of playtime with all the dogs -- they're super friendly! We also love to go on hikes and for long walks or runs, so your pup will get plenty of exercise with us!
Reviews
Christie and Daniel took great care of our pup with regular updates. It was very nice knowing she had a good dog friend to hang out with
Rosa loved it!
Christie and Daniel were AMAZING hosts for my pup Tony. They were very proactive and responsive in communication, offered to arrange a meet and greet before the stay, and I got MULTIPLE pics each day of Tony’s 4 day stay with them. Would highly recommend them to others and would send Tony back to stay with them again in the future!!!
Maisie appeared to have the time of her life staying with Christie + Daniel! I received several photos a day, and she was smiling in every one! Would highly recommend and plan on using them again. Thank you!
