Safety, trust & environment

At this time, I am not offering in-home boarding or dog sitting in my home. I am currently focusing on providing dog walking services. Your dog’s safety, care, and happiness are very important to me, and I will always make sure they are well cared for and given lots of love during our walks.

Information Christina H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is dog/people friendly!!! I will let people know not to pet your fur baby. I will also keep my distance from other dogs!! Let me know if there’s anything your dog is scared of, that way I won’t be surprised if something comes along that triggers your dog. Let me know what your dog likes and doesn’t like…that way I can ensure the best care for your dog and make them feel like a VIP!! Very Important Puppy!

A typical day

I love exploring new trails around the area, having a companion with me to explore it would be even better!!! I can also take your four legged fur ball to a dog park and let them run to their hearts content! I can do a splash pad on a very hot day or on cold days, take your doggo to a dog friendly store!!

Pet care experience

Hi! Dogs have been a huge part of my life!! I can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a dog. I began really caring for dogs when I was 13. My lab Jordan, was my very first dog I was responsible for on my own! Since then, I’ve had multiple foster dogs. All of them pittbulls and have had experience with the most troubled and sickly dogs. One dog I fostered was a hospice case, I took her home and brought her back to health. She was successfully adopted!! I also had experience working for The Dog Wizard and worked with trainers who showed me training techniques. I handled all types of dogs there!! My last foster dog I fostered is my foster fail. She’s a Staffy, her name is Mocha!! I love dogs so much because they are truly the best! They are therapy, they give the best cuddles and kisses, and they are so much fun to play with!!! Plus, who’s a better companion to explore and have an adventure with on a new trail!! Again, if you have any questions…send me a message!! I will respond as quickly as I can!!

Christina did great with my pups! She even filled their water and rinsed of my muddy dogs. Will definitely request her again.

Christina was professionally and did a great job walking Mocha! I would highly recommend her to walk your fur baby! Mocha enjoyed her walk with Christina!

I’ve known Christina for years, and she has always been amazing with animals. She’s incredibly caring, patient, and attentive with pets of all kinds. I trust her completely with my own dog and cat, and she’s always treated them with so much love and care. She also has a real passion for horses and is very experienced and confident around them as well. Anyone would be lucky to have Christina caring for their pets.
