Pet care experience
It's love at first sight with any animal I meet. If they don't feel the same way right away, I'm always patient in winning them over. Some cats who don't like many people eventually end up deciding to sleep in my lap. I love hiking with dogs and getting down on the floor to play. I'm not concerned about pet hair on the floor, but if you are I'll sweep it up for you! My dog experience includes how to keep an epileptic animal safe during a seizure. I worked for a local animal shelter, and I learned so much about cat behavior both through study and through practical application. I have over 15 years of experience caring for cats. I can safely administer meds, trim claws, and groom (not including haircuts). I can inject insulin and assist with subcutaneous fluids. I am especially familiar with polydactyl (extra-toed) claw care. My girl Neesha is a poly. I have sat dogs, cats, horses, birds, reptiles, and fish. I believe in positive reinforcement, and will never hit your fubaby or make them feel scared. I have achieved my ultimate dream in having a career working with animals, and I would love to help you with the knowledge I've gained.
Reviews
Christina is so good with our babies. She goes above and beyond every time to make sure they get playtime and lovins and always gives us a great recap and fun picturs for every visit.
Christina is always the best with our girls! Very communicative and sends lots of pics and updates. She also did some plant care and collected our mail. It’s a joy to have Christina as a pet sitter. She always goes the extra mile.
Always so happy when Christina is available! She sends great pictures and updates and I always know the cats are well looked after!
Christina is always the best when she watches our girls. She is communicative and always gives our kitties the best care.

Safety, trust & environment
Currently I'm only able to care for your pet(s) in your home. I will follow all feeding, transportation, and safety precautions you provide. Please feel free to give me any info you think I'll need!
Information Christina M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know about specific safety measures to take, if applicable. Let me know about allergies, medications, food preferences, places in the house or outdoors that are off-limits, etc.
A typical day
I'm familiar with many walking and hiking trails around Missoula. I enjoy getting out during the day after work, and seeing all the dogs out on hikes is always a bonus. I can take your buddy out on a trail or we can play frisbee in a dog park. If you have a little guy or a senior who's less energetic, they can just enjoy some attention and treats. I'm aware of foods on the poisonous list to avoid, for both dogs and cats.
