Pet care experience
Growing up pets were always in my home. Our family included dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. I’ve sat for mostly dogs and cats of friends and family, but I’m a lover of all animals. My biggest bond was with my dog, Tito, who I took for walks, drives, and swimming in the pool. As Tito aged he needed medication and to be carried outside when he couldn’t walk, and I was there. I’ve sat for pets that needed daily medication and made sure to adhere to the schedule. I have experience with younger and older pets and will do my best to care for yours.
Reviews
Christina house- and dog-sat for us for six days while we were on vacation. We set up a meet-and-greet in advance and met at our house for an orientation the week of the stay. Still, when Christina arrived in our absence, our dog was very wary of her and confused by this first-time housesitting experience. Christina was infinitely patient with her and kept us updated as the dog slowly understood what was happening and warmed up to her. By the end they were having a great time. I can't thank Christina enough for her excellent communication and her calm professionalism in handling the situation with our dog's fearfulness. And for putting up with the dog crying out in the middle of the night!
Christina provided wonderful care, once again, for our big fluffy pup! Thank you, Christina!
Christina was a great sitter watching our dog for a weekend. Checked in each day with some cute photos and updates. Thanks!!
Once again, our pup had a great time with Christina! Christina communicated throughout the house stay -- asking good questions and providing some great pictures of playtime. Thank you, Christina!

Safety, trust & environment
In a client’s home I always discuss your pet’s patterns, walk times, feedings, etc. I allow for cats and dogs in my home. I do live in an apartment and don’t have a yard for dogs, but can definitely go for strolls as parks are nearby as well as dog walk areas.
