Reviews
Christie was great with my dog Piper! Very communicative and kind! Highly recommend:)
Christie took wonderful care of my dog! She left great details with each visit and lots of pictures. I will definitely be using her services in the future.
Christie was great and I recommend her. She was timely with responding to messages, friendly to talk with and enthusiastic with our two dogs. She was also flexible with our changing schedule. We'll use her again.

A typical day
I have a lot of fun things up my sleeve but of course, only at the owners discretion and age/ health of pet and their abilities! Here are some fun activities I’m capable of partaking in with your pet: 1. Playing fetch with a ball or a frisbee. 2. Going for a walk or hike in a nearby park or trail. 3. Teaching them new tricks and commands like "sit," "stay," or "down." 4. Having a doggy playdate with other friendly dogs. 5. Giving them puzzle toys or treat-dispensing toys to keep their minds engaged. 6. Engaging in interactive games like hide-and-seek or tug-of-war. 7. Providing them with a safe pool or sprinkler playtime on a hot day. 8. Taking them to a dog-friendly beach or lake for some water fun. 9. Simply spending quality time together, giving them belly rubs and cuddles.
