Pet care experience

Hello fur parents! My name is Christina. I started dog sitting at the age of 12 by helping my family when they were away and fell in love with it since I always wanted a dog growing up. I grew up taking care of kittens, cats, fish, and guinea pigs so being able to watch a wide variety of dog breeds makes my young heart warm and fuzzy! I dabbled into the dog industry as a daycare attendant for 2 years. I gained valuable skills in training, feeding/portioning food, collecting data on health concerns, fight prevention, learning and observing dog body language, and recieving CPR/ first aid training. My love and I adopted our first puppy together in 2022!! Fiona is the sweetest pitbull mix with a silly personality. I have spend my free time teaching Fiona commands and tricks when she wants to listen. 😂 I enjoy taking her to the dog park, taking her out for pup cups, going to new exciting places to sniff and explore, and also taking daily trips to petsmart. On that note, I would love to connect, bond, and give all the attention to your furr babies!

Christina was great with Chuck! He got so much love, care and attention. Chuck is sweet but also an energetic not fully trained nippy puppy, so not easy! Christina is reliable, caring and skilled at taking care of dogs and goes the extra mile to treat them like her own. He got plenty of love attention and exercise. We got cute pictures of him throughout the week. It was a nice bonus that she got our mail and packages, watched our house and left our house clean and tidy. I would recommend her to friends, neighbors and family that needs pet care.

Christina stayed with our dog overnight and she was fantastic. She followed all of our instructions, kept us informed on how everything was going, and sent is plenty of pics! We will definitely have her back. We highly recommend her!

Christina was great with Renji and dealing with the crazy situation of us listing our house during the sitting. She was great with sending us updates and pictures. I’m sure Renji can’t wait to have her sit him again!

Christina was so great with our greyhound, Minerva! Christina stayed at our home and gave us daily updates. Minerva was happy and calm when we returned home, so we know she felt comfortable with Christina. We would book her again in a heartbeat!
