Pet care experience

Hello there, I'm Christina (I go by Chris), I'm a 30 year old experienced pet sitter and lover, who is also a certified yoga instructor! My experience includes: -Dog Walking/Play-Time, Grooming, Dog/ House-sitting, Daily House Check-ups, and Pet Waste Disposal are the list of services I have provided for families over the past 8 years. -I spent 2 years bathing dogs at a grooming salon, so I have encountered a variety of dog breeds and personalities. -I also volunteer with the humane society to nurture some deserving pups. -Not to mention, my 4-legged fur-child, Phee-Bee, who serves as the perfect playmate for your pup. I have always felt a special connection with animals growing up; making them an easy choice to want to be around all the time. How long have I been a dog lover!? Forever!!! I get so excited every time I see a doggie. When I was a little girl and people would ask what I wanted to be when I grow up, I would respond with, "a veterinarian." I currently am a certified Yoga teacher, but luckily my work only keeps me away from home for 2 hours max. Essentially, every choice that I now make as an adult, revolves around the best option for my dog. Meet my pup: My mini dachshund- Phee-bee -is a fun lil 9 pound pup who would love to make more fur friends. As long as her friends don't try to eat her. Contact me: To get any of your questions answered or just to become acquainted with me more prior to any business transactions, I am willing to meet in person (or by phone) free of charge. Have a Pawsome Day! Chris

I am very picky about my dogs and their comfort is a number one priority to me. My dogs travel with me as well as go to my office daily. Therefore I spare no effort in ensuring their best comfort. Christina is in my opinion the best dog sitter I have used......., ever! She, her husband, and their little dauschund ensure that both my dogs were warmly welcomed and cared for as if they were part of her family and more importantly provided an extension of warmth and comfort that is both rare and highly appreciated. That is, according to my dogs Watson and Scooter and that's good enough for me.

Christina was great with our 4 dogs and they took to her immediately. We are relocating to the area and are currently at the Residence Inn... Christina came here and took care of our dogs so we could explore the area. We are going to use her again next weekend so we can get out some more. Definitely would recommend Christina to watch your animals.

I really was very,very pleased with Christina sitting for my fur babies. This was my first time doing this and she was so very nice and sweet of staying in touch with me and sending me pics of my babies. She told me she didn't have any trouble with them at all and I was very happy to hear that from her. I would highly recommend her to anyone else who needs a sitter for their fur babies or baby. She was very good with mine. Christina, thank you so very much for being the best sitter on my list.

Information Christina K. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, I am comfortable in my experience with all breeds of dogs from my work in the dog grooming salon. I would like to know: Do they have any special medical conditions? Do they take any medications? Are there any sensitive area to not touch/ be cautious of on their bodies? What is they're feeding schedule? Do you use keywords for commands? Do you say go potty? or Take a pee!!?? Do they love attention all the time? or Just doing they're own thing? How do you walk them? Do you use any special training collars? Do they have a tendency to try to run away/ escape? What words/ actions do you use for discipline? Are they allowed to have treats? How do they act around other dogs? What is their anxiety level when meeting new people/ places? I would just like to know as much as I can about your pet for extra precaution/ safety while you're away.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks- Down to the beach of course Your dog's sleeping arrangements- Where do they like to sleep? On the couch? or the bed? That's fine with me. If he or she is a furry pup.. I have lots of sheets to cover the funiture with. I have a small dog bed in the living room that can easily be brought into the bedroom. Or you can bring your dog's bed set up. Time I'll spend with your dog (if they are staying at my home)- I either work from home or am teaching yoga class which only lasts an hour, so 98% of my time will be spent with the dogs. Time I'll spend with your dog (if they are staying at their home)- How much time do you want me to spend with them? I'll spend as much time as you want/ they need. It varies for every dog/ situation. I would NEVER just pop in, bring in the mail, pick up the poop, and feed the dog and leave (unless that's what your asking of me.) It's not in my nature, I am there to love and take care of your animal for their own welfare. When they look at me with those cute puppy dog eyes! I can't help but wanna roll around and love them! Help them get rid of some of that built up energy! Extra house-sitting services- Yes, I'm very tidy and organized. I have no problem doing any extra tasks upon request.
