Pet care experience
You can be guaranteed that your dog will be safe, well loved and taken care of by me. I've had dogs all my life and for 10 years I was a veterinary technician, finishing out my career at a specialty center as a senior tech. I am great with all animals, being able to read what each one needs. Any animals who require medical assistance, I'm your woman! I'm able to provide; fluids, meds (oral and injectable), bandage care, surgical site and wound cleaning, etc. Basically, anything your animal may need, I can provide. As long as it isn't raining, I love taking dogs for walks in the woods. If they are good with other animals I would take them to dog parks to let them run free. I also have no problem taking them anywhere with me as long as they enjoy traveling in the car. For the health and safety of your dog, if they are staying with me I request you provide the following: - Their food and water bowls - Their food, treats & any supplements or meds. - Their cage if they are cage trained. - Their bed, blanket or anything that will make them as comfortable and less homesick as possible. - Their leash & collar or harness.
Reviews
Christina is the perfect dog sitter for anyone; she has a gift with all animals and more particularly dogs. She is very kind and patient and your dog will love her. I highly recommend Christina.
Christina is awesome with any and all animals! She has worked for a veterinarian and has even rescued several animals. I have 2 cats (rescued) and a dog, she is wonderful with them. I wish there were more animal care givers like her!
Christina has a passion and unconditional love of animals. She started her career working with them at the young age of 16 when she worked cleaning Kennels at Palos Animal Hospital. That led to her becoming a Vet Tech and then on to being a Surgical Vet Tech. Though her career path has changed, her love for animals remains strong. She has a very special connection with animals, and it doesn't end with dogs and cats, she has been around, and worked with horses since she was a little girl. If there is an animal out there that requires special attention and lots of love while you are vacationing or out of town for work, Christina is your girl. While you're away she will make your pet family her own and will treat them with the kind of love only you as their owner can surpass.
Our Lab Luna loves Christina. She has been pet sitting for us for years. Christina takes amazing care of Luna. I would highly recommend her.

Information Christina F. would like to know about your pet
What is their temperament? Do they get along with other animals? Are they on the energetic or chill side? Are they house trained? What is their medical history? I pretty much love all breeds as long as they are friendly. Rottweilers, Pitt Bulls, Greater Swiss & Bernese Mountain dogs are my favorites though.
A typical day
I love going for walks in the woods. I do not allow dogs I don't know off leash, but I've never had a dog complain about our walks! If dogs enjoy water, I love going kayaking and will be happy to bring them along.
