Information Christina G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog is frightened of anything such as loud noises, dogs, strangers etc. Also, I like to know if there is an area on your dog where they do not like to be touched. In addition, how they behave on a leash and their personality. I am most concern with your comfort and your dogs as well!

A typical day

I love to walk and will do so at your pups pace or the pace you would like your dog to have! lol I allow the dog to safely enjoy all the sniffs and sounds on a walk. I enjoy throwing balls in the yard and playing with toys!

I'll care and love your pup!

Pet care experience

I can still cry when I tell someone the story of when I got my first dog at 13yrs old. I held that adorable golden retriever pup and cried asking if it was really mine! The story of bringing another golden retriever into the lives of my daughters can yet again bring me to tears! Such precious memories! I am now on my second chocolate lab (easier hair drying time lol). Anyway a dog enters my life it is always special. That includes my daughter's cockapoo who has stolen my heart! Whenever I am out and see a dog, no matter what the breed, I always ask to say hello and give a pet! My family and friends sometimes call me the "Dog whisperer" because I am always ready to help should a question arise about care. I have cared for friends and family dogs many times and am ready to help with yours and create a special bond while doing so!

Christina was an exceptional stand in as a best friend to our large nine year old dog! She was attentive, communicative, thoughtful and engaged for the multiple days we were away. She shared photos and videos regularly and adhered perfectly to the “older dog” instructional needs. Extremely caring and a true dog person. We were in good hands and would absolutely use Christina in the future. Whole heartedly recommend!

Christina is the BEST! She truly is a dog whisperer and lover! Christina has cared for many of my dogs and I always feel comfortable and relaxed knowing they are in such good care. Christina will love your dog like her own and is extremely trustworthy. Thank you Christina! You Rock!!

Over the span of 20 years CHRISTINA G. had served as trusted caretaker to my Lhasa apso and two cats. Responsible, loving, respectful of their pampered needs, and personal schedules are a few words to describe CHRISTINA. Do I highly recommend CHRISTINA to anyone who truly treasures their pets as important family members—— you bet I do! Esther B.
