Hi! My name is Christi and I have done scheduled dog walking and sitting for over 8 years now for family, friends, and neighbors & have adored every moment of it. I am somewhat new to San Diego (coming from Madison, WI) which is what lead me to Rover! I have two animals myself-- one bengal/domestic cat and a miniature wiener dog-- and I have had animals around me my entire life. If I didn't live in an apartment, I'd have many more, too! I have always been extremely passionate about animals and their needs since I was a child. I am caring, thoughtful, and truly enjoy being with animals of all kinds. I am familiar with animals of various breeds, ages, sizes, and health conditions. I treat every animal as if they are my own and am grateful for any opportunity I have to take care of an adorable creature! I am very reliable, flexible, and accommodating to any of you or your animals needs. If your animal is bursting with energy, I will match that in addition to teaching them skills to improve temperament and relaxed behavior. If your animal is quiet, shy, or prefers gentler company, I bring that to the table as well. My focus and key priorities are to always make the animals I care for comfortable, happy, and of course feel safe. I truly take pride in my ability to build a solid sense of trust and understanding between me and the animals I care for. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me!
