Lover of All Animals!

Pet care experience

I have cared for many different types of animals since I was 6 years old! I had hamsters and guinea pigs when I was a kid, and I always took care of them myself. This was when I developed a deep love for animals of all kinds. I have had 4 dogs throughout my life, and I have always been one of the main caretakers in their lives, along with my mom. I had a pet pig for four years, and I was his main caretaker. I volunteered at an animal shelter as a dog walker for my first two years of college, and I worked at a veterinary hospital as an animal handler this past year. I have also worked at a doggy daycare where I took care of dogs of all sizes and temperaments! There is no better feeling to me than taking care of animals and making sure they feel loved and happy! I know it is an incredibly stressful experience for pets to be away from their owners, so I will always do everything in my power to make sure they have the best and most stress-free experience possible! I am on summer break from college so I have plenty of time to care for your dogs! I'm super flexible with scheduling and want to work with you to figure out a schedule to meet your pet's needs. I understand that every dog is so different in their needs. And I also know that no one knows their pet better than their owner! So ideally I would love to talk to you about what your dog needs and what I can do to make that happen. I have dealt with dogs of all temperaments, so I am comfortable working with any type of dog, even if they are nervous with strangers!

Christina possesses all of the traits that a pet owner is looking for in a dog walker or pet sitter. She is patient, caring, and understanding of the unique needs of any animal. Through her experience as a pet owner, kennel attendant, and animal sanctuary volunteer, she is a natural at dealing with animals of all sizes and temperaments. You can be assured that her engagement with your pet is rooted in a genuine love for animals. She has a great personality and is a pleasure to work with!

Very important to me, is that I can trust Christina. She is very reliable and responsible - I can count on her to do what she says she’ll do. Also important is that she is loving and caring! My dogs love her because she easily engages with them. She is even understanding/empathetic if a dog is difficult. She finds out about their backgrounds to figure out how best to interact with them. Christina’s common sense and smarts are really helpful especially when my dogs have unusual symptoms or issues. She also uses her experience working in a vet hospital assisting vets and vet techs. She helped me come up with questions to ask my vet regarding my dog’s cough. She cares about my dogs’ mental health as well when she figures out ways to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained. And Christina is a nice and cheerful person as well!!

Information Christina G. would like to know about your pet

I like to know as much information about your dog as possible beforehand. Even small behavioral things can be really helpful to me when taking care of your dog. Diet restrictions are really important as well as any medications or important aspects of their personality!

A typical day

I know every dog is different, so ultimately I will listen to your dog and see what they’re interested in. Most dogs love walks, so my go to is a walk around the neighborhood or a walk to the park! Some dogs love playing with toys, so we can play fetch or just run around with the toys!
