Highlights
Pet care experience
Patient & Kind Dog Trainer
My specialty is mainly extra time and patience for helping traumatized pets feel safe and learn to enjoy life. I've helped countless dogs learn how to even be dogs with only compassion and love. I know every dog can be helped with time, patience and observing cues. I raised Meeko, an Australian Shepherd who could solve the energy crisis 😁 I named him after the dog in Skyrim near Solitude. I discovered my passion for training especially through researching into raising a high energy working breed 😄 I trained him as my own service dog and he became one for other dogs in many ways, he helped so many dogs heal and realize other dogs are actually cool. I know how scary it is to trust someone with your pet so I will give plenty of videos, pictures and stories, nothing is too needy 😄
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
My Chloe has an awesome stay with Christina! She sent pics and communicated well :)
Christina does an incredible job with my dog, Haven. For dog walks and boarding, Christina takes the time to work with her less-than-stellar leash etiquette and Haven just loves her!
Johnny has another amazing visit with Christina and her pup! He always comes home sleepy and happy!
We have used Christina several times now and are so glad we found her! She seems to have an amazing way of dealing with puppy antics.... she is totally on board with calmly redirecting/teaching and reinforcing the training we are working on. I know I can trust her to take care of our big, high energy puppy without allowing her to get away with any pulling, jumping or other bad behaviors... which we soooo appreciate! She also always sends Rover cards with details of potty and walk behaviors as well as some cute pictures. We definitely plan to continue using Christina and would highly recommend her to others!
Grateful for Christina's care and attention for Isla.
Christina works with my dog on skills each time she walks him. She's amazing!

Schedule
I work a tech support/medical assistant job from home so I have a very flexible schedule. I spend most of my time rehabilitating pets and wildlife. The rest of my time is spent enjoying art, nature, games and life 🤓

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Most of our day would be nature walks and exploring. There's a big gated dog park next too my building too. We would otherwise be relaxing - they would get spoiled with love, treats toys and play time.
Pets
A typical day
I love positive reinforcement training and letting them take time to think themselves. I bring a long leash on walks and try to tire out any pets with what they love. I also run with them. I always work on training so I'll especially be looking out for triggers and helping heal them - like if they're afraid of skateboarders we'll slowly work on it and I'll ask people to greet them to help ?
