Park ranger with a love for critter
Pet care experience
I have over 10+ years of experience taking care of animals. When I was in highschool I had a love for all animals and was in a small animal science program where we learned to take care of small animals as well as learn to bathe and give hair cuts to dogs. Once I new this was something I enjoyed I worked at a kennel for a short time before starting to work at Petsmart in NY as a bather. While I was in community college I continued to work as a bather until I moved from home. When I would come home for breaks I would work at the Kennel at Petsmart working the overnight shift. During this whole time I was babysitting, dog/cat sitting and taking care of smaller critters like chinchillas, a turtle, a rabbit, and of course fish. I had used this app for a short time but in March 2020 I moved to Utah to work in the National Park Service. Since I was over an hour away from civilization I deactivated my account but continued to house sit for my co-workers and friends that had dogs and cats. I now work full time but I would love the extra cuddles on my off days.
Reviews
Always does a great job and my furbabies love her!
The pups loved her!! She communicated well with us and was super friendly! I would definitely rebook with her and am so thankful for her help!!
She & my huge mastiffs hit it off. I think they were disappointed not seeing Christie all the time. They took to her like they have known her forever. I couldn’t imagine anyone else taking care of my babies
Christie was very professional. She did a meet and greet with our babies a month in advance. We ended up adopting a stray and she didn't hesitate to watch over our pups. She left the house the way she found it and sent updates throughout her visit. I highly recommend her!

In my free time, I love to go on hikes. If your pup is willing to go on long hikes in the woods that is one of my favorite special places to go.
