Pet care experience

Caring and considerate dog lover

I have owned and taken care of many dogs throughout my life. I currently own small breed dogs of my own. I am the friend that everyone calls when they go out of town because they know they can relax knowing their pup is in good hands. I have worked with many rescue groups in the fostering and rehabilitation of dogs before they go to new homes. I am looking forward to becoming part of your family and helping you be the best pet owner you can be by providing whatever care you need. Whether that is a one time drop in walk or daily play dates in my fenced in backyard. I can also help with basic training, leash etiquette and fear issues.

Christie is amazing! She has taken such great care of Astrid (who obviously loves staying with her) - sending updates, pictures and always replying to anything sent her way. Definitely a great experience all around.

Just used Christie for the first time! She was very patient and kind with our older dog (11-12 years). She kept us informed daily about how she was doing and sent pictures!

Doggy Day Care • Dec 18, 2025

This was my first experience with River. And I couldn’t have made a better choice than Christie. She made both Zuko and Daisy feel right at home. The puppies were excited to see her in the morning. She was great at sending pictures and updates. Made this experience very stress free! I will be booking her whenever I need it!

I have a fenced in back yard and no one is outside unaccompanied. Monitered playtime to ensure everyone is safe. I have gates along any entry point to prevent any escape attempts.

Dogs have access to my fenced in back yard multiple times a day. During the summer months there is a pool that will be uncovered and no dog is left outside unsupervised. During pack plays no toys are allowed in the yard. You are able to pack toys for separate playtime such as tennis balls.
