I am currently a per diem part-time nanny to a family in New Jersey while attending online college classes; however, the alignment of both schedules allows me the flexibility to include my passion for pet care!

Safety, trust & environment

My work experience in animal welfare in clinical and boarding facilities allows me to apply what I have learned into what I can do. As an overnight supervisor in a doggy daycare environment, pets are cared for by providing a safe and stimulating environment, ensuring their well-being, and offering socialization opportunities with other dogs. This includes activities such as playtime, walks, feeding, and monitoring their behavior whereas in a clinical setting, caring for pets involves monitoring vital signs, administering treatments, conducting medical procedures, and providing post-operative care. It also includes maintaining cleanliness, following strict protocols, and ensuring a comfortable environment for the animals. Although not as extensive in daycare or clinical facilities, in-home pet care allows for individualized attention where needed as needed without the external stressors of a constantly changing environment. In-home care involves the basics of pet welfare and includes providing food, water, exercise, and companionship. Additionally, administering medication, following specific care instructions, and maintaining a safe environment are crucial, all of which I can provide based on my background and experience.

Information Christina C. would like to know about your pet

Our furry companions are not just pets but are members of our families and friend groups! Understanding your pet's medical history, behavior traits, dietary needs, exercise requirements, and any specific preferences or sensitivities is crucial as that information allows me to meet your expectations and is an integral part of my passion for providing individualized pet care.

A typical day

Each pet has a unique characteristic to themselves and my external experience as an animal caretaker and personal experience as a pet parent are based on the individual needs of your pet as well as your expectations as a pet parent. However, a typical day includes interactive play sessions, puzzle toys, cuddles, and nature walks. These activities will help stimulate your pets mentally and physically, all while promoting their well-being and happiness.

Passion for Paws

Pet care experience

I differentiate myself by offering specialized skills like administering medication, handling medical emergencies, and providing personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. Building trust through expertise and professionalism is key in communicating effectively in order to deliver the best possible care. Additionally, my own experience with my dog has also granted me the ability to understand and meet such needs as well as the emotional needs of any pet, and to establish a trusted relationship with both pet and owner!
