Caring for your fluffy friend

Pet care experience

I’ve been an animal lover since a kid, and am excited to care for your pet! I’m a grad student in MD and am a proud pet parent of 2 Yorkie-mix dogs. I have experience with pet feeding, long walks, and fun playtime. I’m also comfortable administering medications and caring for dogs of all sizes. My husband and I are fairly flexible, and I often work from home. We have a large backyard where your dog(s) can safely play and enjoy the outdoors.

Christin and James are fantastic! They’re professional, warm, and sincere pet lovers. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands. Highly recommend!

Christin took amazing care of my dog Brooklyn. She was kind, gentle, and very responsive. I truly appreciated her attentiveness and would definitely book again.

Christin took such great care of my pup, Moni! Moni is always excited to see Christin; and when Moni returns I can tell she was well taken care of. I will continue to allow Moni to board with Christin because she LOVES it there!!

Information Christin & James W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dogs have special needs or behaviors that I should account for. Once informed, I’ll confirm whether it’s something my husband and I can manage. Additionally, it would be helpful to know if your dog plays friendly with other dogs so we can determine if we should bring them to the dog park or take them on long walks in parks that allow dogs on-leash instead.

A typical day

We walk around the neighborhood so the dogs can get their daily smells in and often play fetch out in the backyard. We also take the dogs to dog parks or places like the Arboretum and Lake Artemesia at least once a week. Indoor fun included a few chew and tug toys and lots of rubs.

I’m a grad student who has a very flexible schedule. I walk the dogs around 7:30am, brush their teeth, and set out their food. I also go on midday walks so they are mentally and physically stimulated. My husband takes the dogs out for long walks in the evenings as well. We are happy to include your pets into this schedule or add any additional care into this routine per your request and/or according to your pet’s needs.
