Dog days are all days.
Pet care experience
I have had pets my entire life including fish, cats, and a two dogs (Blu and Spencer) that I've considered brothers more than pets. I currently have two baby bearded dragons named Zuri and Zorro. A few years ago, I worked for a dog walking and pet sitting company in Boston/Needham, and pet sat for many different families while in college. For three years of undergrad, I house sat/babysat/dog sat for a family in the area that had two Italian Spinonis and an ancient, blind, but adorable, Terrier. I've watched sick dogs, month-old puppies, wildly active pointers and bull-headed old farts. I moved back to CT and have been sitting for a few local puppers pretty regularly. Dogs make me happy, and I hope I make dogs happy too. I would love to give your pet some of the love! :)
Reviews
Christie does a terrific job! I especially appreciate that she goes “above and beyond” when faced with weather challenges!
Christie did a fine job of taking care of Jack - he thrived under her care. Additionally, she kept me updated and sent photos, which was especially helpful!
Christie was wonderful taking care of our dogs during our wedding day and rehearsal dinner. She sent pics and kept us updated all while keep our dogs separate and on their routine.
Christie was great with my dogs and one is a challenge. Thank you!!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will not have your pet off-leash unless in a fenced in area. I will do my best to earn their trust patiently and work with whatever quirks or idiosyncrasies they have, and honor whatever house rules you may have. :)
Information Christie F. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet requires any special medication, food, are not allowed in rooms or on certain furniture, and if they have any triggers that cause them to be scared or reactive.
A typical day
A morning romp, some couch cuddles, tug of war, perhaps explore some trails nearby? There are so many ways to spend a day! But getting outdoors is definitely a priority.
Services
Christie can watch in your home
Availability
I work Mondays and Fridays 930-6ish at the Medfield Library, with an occasional shorter Sunday shift. I also have modeling and photography gigs sporadically that can make my schedule a little weird. I will most likely need to be gone for 4-8hrs at a time while house-sitting, but am available around that.
