Dog lover, runner, and caring
Pet care experience
Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I remember-- some of my favorite childhood memories include playing with my two pups. When I was 13, I got my first puppy. When I was 20, I raised my family puppy (a Cocker Spaniel -poodle mix at 8 weeks) into a well-mannered and house-trained dog (now 3 years old). Now, as a Doctor of Physical Therapy graduate student who is living in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs, I am looking for an outlet that will allow me to get my dog fix! I am comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have volunteered at animal shelters, and during that time, I interacted with rambunctious pitt bulls, shy mutts, and young puppies. As previously mentioned, my family has always included at least one dog, so I have had extensive experience dealing with every scenario that could arise. No pup is too much for me! I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in Wildlife Conservation, and I began a Doctor of Physical Therapy Program at Chatham University in fall 2018.
Reviews
We’ve had great experiences with Christina walking our dog and so when we had to go out of town for a weekend we scheduled her for our first house sitting. We were very happy with the frequent communication, the care she gave our dog, and our house was in perfect shape when we got home.
We had a great experience with Christina! She was flexible with her schedule to accommodate our needs, was so good with our dog, and we felt very comfortable with her handling him since he’s a big guy and can be a handful. She was exceptionally friendly and easy to communicate with, keeping us very updated the whole time. Thank you!
Christina made me feel so comfortable that my dog was in good hands and getting lots of exercise while I was away. Piper had a cut on her paw when I left. Christina kept a close eye on it, and updated me on the healing progress multiple times. I will definitely ask her to watch Piper again in the future!
Awesome sitter. Very accommodating. Sent pictures!
