Pet care experience

Stay-at-Home Dog Spoiler + Yard

I love animals—if it were up to me, I’d have a whole crew of them running around! For now, my husband and I just have two spoiled pups of our own, and I absolutely love opening our home to care for other dogs while their families are away. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and needs, including senior pups who require extra patience, medication, or mobility support. I follow every instruction pet parents provide to keep your dog’s routine, comfort, and wellbeing top of mind. My goal is always to make your dog feel like they’re at their home away from home. Whether that means playtime, lounging on the couch, or curling up for some cozy snuggles, they’ll be welcomed like family. Pets are welcome on the furniture, and there’s always space for one more cuddle buddy. No one can love your dog like you do—but I try to come pretty close, and they always seem to know it.

Christina was amazing with my senior dog Rambo. She took such wonderful care of him, kept me updated on his insulin injections, and sent cute pictures during the day. She was prompt taking care of his diabetic needs which was so important and very much appreciated. She was great with communication and very friendly . I would highly recommend her to anyone and very deserving of the 5 star rating.

Christina is an amazing sitter! She is loving and kind and very patient as one of our dogs takes time to adjust to any new people or situation. She was able to gain their trust quickly and made it a wonderful experience for both of our dogs, and for us. Christina sent updates and cute pictures, even some videos of them playing with their new doggie friends. We highly recommend Christina to everyone!

Doggy Day Care • Feb 04, 2026

Christina and her husband loved Andy like a member of their own family. They and their pups played with him a lot and he obviously had a great time, as evidenced by the photos and video that Christina sent. I’m so glad to have found such a caring person to care for Andy and I plan on bringing him for doggy day care again ! She has my highest recommendation.

Schedule

I work from home, so caring for dogs is naturally built into my daily routine. I'm around throughout the day to offer attention, playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles. I can easily accommodate your pup’s feeding, potty, or medication schedule—whatever they need to feel comfortable and cared for. I also understand that travel plans can change—flights get delayed, meetings run over, life happens. With clear communication, I do my best to be flexible and accommodating. Travel can be stressful enough without having to worry about your pup’s care. My goal is always to be the kind of sitter we’d want if we were heading out of town.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pup’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can run, play, and enjoy some fresh air while staying secure. There’s a doggie door that, when open, gives pups the freedom to come and go as they please. For those who aren’t familiar with doggie doors or just prefer a little help, I’m right here to open the door as needed. Inside, pups are welcome to lounge wherever they like—on the couch, a dog bed, or right next to me. The environment is relaxed, clean, and designed to feel like home. Whether your dog is a social butterfly or prefers their own space, I respect their boundaries and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I aim to create a home that feels like a vacation for your pup—routine, comfort, and lots of love included.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day here includes plenty of playtime, snuggles, and lots of love. We have a variety of toys to keep pups entertained, and I love spending time playing and interacting with each dog based on their energy and personality. When it’s time to relax, we curl up on the couch for some TV and cuddles—your pup can pick their favorite spot! I also love capturing cute, candid moments and sending picture updates throughout the stay. I know how important it is to see your pup happy and relaxed while you’re away—because if it were me, I’d want those updates too.

Please let me know if your pup has any special dietary needs, allergies, or feeding routines. I understand that mealtime can sometimes be stressful when dogs are away from home, so I like to sit with them and create a calm, comforting environment to help them feel at ease. It’s also helpful to know if your pup takes any medications or has skin sensitivities—especially in case they get a little dirty outside and need a quick bath. Let me know how they do around other dogs, if they have any quirks, or if there are things that make them nervous. The more I know, the better I can make their stay feel safe, relaxed, and just like home.
