Safety, trust & environment

In your home, I provide the same routine as you would and respect the space and cleanliness as better than I found it. Your pets' safety and routine is high priority.

Information Christina M. would like to know about your pet

There are no breed preference as I have experience caring for many different types of breeds from pitbulls to chihuahuas. However, I would like to know health information, if any, and any defensive behaviors or habits to be fully prepared of what to expect.

A typical day

A typical day with me is filled with fun and engaging activities tailored to your dog's needs. I love keeping dogs both physically active and mentally stimulated. We’ll enjoy games like fetch and tug-of-war, explore new scents on neighborhood walks, and, if permitted, visit nearby dog-friendly parks for socialization and adventure. For dogs who prefer a more relaxed pace, we can keep it mellow with snuggles, gentle strolls, and quiet enrichment activities. No matter their energy level, I make sure every pup feels happy, loved, and fulfilled throughout the day.

Loving, Reliable Care for Your Pets

Pet care experience

Loving & Experienced Pet Care You Can Trust! Hi, fellow pet parents! I’m Christina, a lifelong animal lover with 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and a variety of other pets. Growing up with my wonderful mother who is a professional groomer of 20+ years with training experience, I developed a deep understanding of animal care from an early age. I specialize in positive reinforcement and patience, working with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From leash training and exercise to administering medication and caring for disabled dogs, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to your pet’s needs. Beyond dogs, I’m also experienced with cats, small mammals (rats, guinea pigs, hamsters), non-venomous reptiles, birds, and even farm animals. Whatever your pet needs, I’m here to help! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet your furry, feathered, or scaly friends!

Christina, thank you so much! I really appreciate your thoughtful approach to pet sitting like being in touch throughout your stay, updating me on how our girls were doing, sending photos and leaving the house in great condition. Because of that, I was in complete ease while I was away and I would absolutely recommend you and hoping you’re available for our next trips! 🤍

Christina was amazing always on time went above and beyond very trustworthy. I will use her over and over and over again without a doubt. I also like the fact that she always kept me up-to-date as to what was going on took wonderful pictures and really put my mind at ease while we were away. I cannot say enough good things about her.

Christina was just what our highly anxious, scared of new people, German Shepherd mix needed when we were out of town for 5 days! Christina is so nurturing and loving, and kept our rambunctious girl so well walked and exercised. Her demeanor was so calm that she calmed our Lucy and helped her separation anxiety. This was our first time with Rover and so impressed with Christina. Will definitely contact Christina for our future pet needs!!
