Owner away?? I walk, sit & play!
Pet care experience
Growing up, we always had cats and dogs and I was taught the responsibilities of owning and caring for pets at a very young age. My love and compassion for animals led me to pursue a degree in Animal Science. I graduated from Montana State University in 2019 with a bachelor's degree in Pre-veterinary Science. During my time in Montana, I gained valuable pet care experience working as a Veterinary Technician, volunteering at animal shelters, and providing care for dogs, cats, horses and cattle as a college intern. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have several dogs and cats of my own that have tested and helped me hone my pet care skills... and sometimes my patience! Animals are a huge part of my life and family. I love interacting with new pets of all shapes and sizes!
Reviews
Christina is my go-to sitter in the Duluth area. Birch always has a delightful time romping through the woods with other pups and Christina regularly sends photo updates of Birch’s exploits. It’s really nice to know that while I’m traveling, my pup is getting a mini vacation of her own.
Christina is a fantastic dog sitter! She has a big yard for the dogs to play in and trails for them to run on, and puts a lot of care into making sure everyone get along well. She is responsive and easy to communicate with, and I would trust her with taking perfect care of any pup!
Christina is super professional and flexible. She is quick to respond to messages. Ozzie is always very excited to see her!
This was my dog Ellie's first time staying with someone she didn't know. Chistina made her feel at home by introducing her dogs one by one. When I left, 3 of them were playing fetch together.

I am a stay at home mom and am very flexible and am home most of the time! Dogs that board with me are let out every 1-2 hours and get lots of exercise and playtime. I have an unoccupied spare bedroom that I use as a safe space for dogs boarding with me. The pet services I offer are: daily walks or hikes, doggy day care, boarding at my home, drop in visits at your home, nail trims, ear cleanings, anal gland expression, and medication administration.

Information Christina B. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know about any special considerations that may be important in your animals care. This may include: medical conditions, medications, allergies, fears, behavioral problems, favorite activities, special training cues, or anything else you think will help me provide the best experience for your dog!
A typical day
Walks through the woods, at the park, or just around the block are among my favorite places to spend time with animals. I find being in nature to be the most stimulating experience for dogs with some fetch, tug of war, belly rubs, kisses and a treat to round out the day!

Availability
My education in Animal Science allows me to provide my pets, as well as yours, with the best care possible. My husband and I own our home and live out in the country (10 min drive from downtown Duluth). We have 10 acres of land, a BIG fully fenced in yard (6500sq ft), and a half mile walking trail through our property/woods. We have plenty of space for your pets to romp and play, on or off leash. I also have reliable transportation and I would be happy to take your pet on an adventure, hike or walk!
