Pet care experience

I have been working with animals for many years, starting with my work in cat rescue. I am very experienced with cats of all ages and temperaments and can easily provide all necessary care, including medications. I have worked in a pet store since 2016 working with dogs, cats, and exotics. I have completed several dog training classes and am very knowledgeable about training and walking challenging pooches. I have four cats of my own at home and lots of experience providing services for friends and family. I have been volunteering with a dog walking service since 2018 and have gained lots of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes! I have lots of experience in vet clinics so I am very willing to work with pets that have special medical needs. I am passionate about providing a service that allows pet parents to feel completely at ease that their pets are well taken care of while they are away. I work a Monday to Friday job with lots of flexibility and opportunity for remote work that leaves me with the freedom to provide pet care services during the evenings, weekends, and for drop-ins during the weekdays. I have a home with no dogs, but dog-savvy cats to easily accommodate a dog who would prefer to be the only dog in the house. Dogs can be crated or not throughout the day depending on owner preference. I have a separate room for cats that require boarding, but am also happy to care for them in their own home where they feel most comfortable. Additionally, I am available for dog sitting in a client’s home.

Christie was absolutely amazing in my home and with my dog while I was away with my family. She sent photos and updates just when I needed them :-) I will definitely reach out to her again for my next vacation!

Christie did an amazing job taking care of our Willow for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. We were able to coordinate updates even though we didn't have cell service while we were away and she provided lots of pictures and videos to give us piece of mind while we were gone. She also let us know that the hot water wasn't work while we were out so we new that it would need to be fixed when we got home. Great communication and excellent care taker for your fur baby!

Information Christie I. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know if your dog has a past history of reactivity to other dogs, people, bicycles, children, and other common triggers for dogs on walks. I also love to know how long of a walk your dog prefers and some of their favourite activities and treats!

A typical day

I am comfortable with dogs of all energy levels - from the couch potato to the excitable puppy. I have lots of ideas for brain games, activities, and exercises to keep your dog busy! I live right off of the city’s main trail network so I can accommodate short or long distance walks with lots of nature smells and sounds for curious pups.
