Loving care for furry friends 🐶
Hello! 😊 I'm Christina, and I live with my partner, James, and our two boys, who are 7 and 4. We're a family of animal lovers, and animals have always been a big part of our lives. We have a 6-month-old puppy called Mollie, who is a lovely, playful girl and loves meeting other dogs. She's learnt that not every dog wants to play, so she's really good at giving them space when they need it. We also have our 14-year-old Chihuahua, Bettie, who's quite happy spending most of the day asleep and generally keeps herself to herself. I work for myself from home during the week, so your dog will have plenty of company during the day. Whether they're staying for daycare or while you're away on holiday, they'll be treated just like one of our own, with lots of fuss, cuddles and attention. We're lucky enough to live close to Ferry Meadows, so there are plenty of lovely walks nearby. We also have a big, fully enclosed garden where dogs can have a good run around or just enjoy a sniff. Inside, they're welcome on the sofa and can make themselves completely at home. I know leaving your dog with someone new can feel a bit daunting, so I'll make sure to keep you updated with photos and little messages, so you can see what they're getting up to and know they're happy and settled. Just to mention, our boys are both at school during the week, so they're out for most of the day. They're both very used to being around dogs, and Arthur (our eldest) always seems to form a really lovely bond with them. We call him our little "dog whisperer". 😊 If your dog prefers a quieter home, though, just send me a message and we can have a chat to see if we'd be a good match. If you've got any questions at all, just ask. I'd love to hear from you! 😊 --- **P.S.** I also offer drop-in visits for cats! I grew up with four cats, so I know how important it is to have someone reliable popping in while you're away. Whether it's feeding them, topping up their water, cleaning the litter tray or just giving them a bit of company and a fuss, I'm more than happy to help.

Ratings and reviews
Freddie had a super day with Christina. He played all day and came home happy and tired. Very good experience. Recommended.
I couldn’t recommend Christina highly enough! Leeloo had an absolutely amazing time staying with her and clearly loved every minute of it. Communication was fantastic throughout, and I received lots of photos and videos of Leeloo enjoying herself, which was really reassuring and lovely to see while I was away. It was obvious that she was being incredibly well looked after and getting plenty of attention, playtime and affection. Christina was an amazing host and I felt completely comfortable leaving Leeloo in her care. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again — I think Leeloo would be very happy to go back! 😂 Thank you so much for taking such great care of my mad little girl!
It was Nutty's second stay with Christina. Everything went so smoothly from booking to collection. Christina was very responsive and she kept us updated throughout the day. She is a fantastic dog carer and we would definitely use her service again. Highly recommended.
Christina and her family were fantastic with our dogs Our dogs had never stayed away anywhere outside of our own home, but we were so happy that we found Christina and family. From the minute we met them we knew and felt really happy The dogs were going to be very well looked after. Thank you once again and we would absolutely highly recommend!
Christina is absolutely amazing. She understands that our Milli is elderly and not very sociable but she completely met her needs. Definitely 5 stars!
We are so happy with the level of care Christina provides. Our terrier, Jaffa Cake, is so well looked after. We receive great pictures and videos throughout his stay which make us chuckle. Jaffa becomes one of the family and this is a really lovey family. Jaffa loves playing with the boys and misses them when he comes home! We would strongly recommend!
