Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I structure my days around walk times, feeding schedules, and playtime because keeping pets happy, active, and comfortable is my top priority. Whether it's early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening cuddle sessions, I’m flexible and committed to being there when pets need me most. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and caring for them fits seamlessly into my lifestyle. This isn’t just a side gig for me it’s something I truly love doing every week.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, welcomed, and part of the family. I have a three year old husky who’s full of energy and loves making new furry friends he’s playful, friendly, and knows when to give other dogs space. If your dog enjoys socializing, they’ll have a built-in buddy to play with! My home is pet-friendly, with plenty of space for play, rest, and one-on-one attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time, or any special care instructions so they feel comfortable and secure, just like at home

Information Christina K. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know as much as possible about your pet before we spend time together. I always ask about their daily routine, energy level, medical needs, triggers (like loud noises or other dogs), and how they behave on walks or around new people and animals. I also like to know their favorite toys, treats, and any training cues you use so I can keep things consistent and comfortable. The more I know, the better care I can provide!

A typical day

I love keeping pets active and engaged! From hiking trails and beach walks to playing with toys and exploring new spots around town, I make sure every pet has fun while staying safe. Whether it’s a game of fetch or a sniff-filled adventure, I tailor activities to match each pet’s energy and personality.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I bring to every pet I meet. I don’t just show up, I build a bond. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy puppy or providing gentle, attentive care for a senior dog, I adjust to each pet’s unique needs and personality.

Christina, her boyfriend and their dog Hendrix are the best hosts. They took such great care of my senior pug. I got updates and adorable photos everyday. I highly recommend Christina.

“I really appreciate Christina and the care she provided for my dog. She was communicative, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. Our dogs got along well on walks and at the park, but it turned out they weren’t the best match sharing a home, so future boarding won’t be a fit for us. I’d still recommend her if your dogs mesh well.

Christina is truly the sweetest dog sitter we have had. She was so caring and kind to my senior pug who has plenty of health issues. She sent plenty of adorable photos. Her husky is just as kind and gentle. Can't wait to book with her again!
