Pet care experience

I've been a pet sitter for over 5 years now, working consistently with family and friends to take care of their wonderful pets. Having been an animal lover since I was little, I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and plenty more animals. I can easily walk dogs up to 125 lbs, bathe them, feed them, and keep them engaged with fun games. I am also skilled with cats, understanding their body language and knowing when to and when not to engage, along with being able to clean litter boxes, give medication, feed them specialty diets, and bathe them.

Christina was great with our dog Paul Rudd! She kept me updated while we were away and our pup seemed to have a really great time! I will definitely use Christina again and would highly recommend her!

Christina has cared for my two senior dogs multiple times. Christina is very loving and patient with them, and they look forward to her visits. She spends quality time with them, and lets them dictate the pace of the walks, which is incredible important for my old timers! Highly recommend!

I have been using Christina for the last 2 years to watch my Australian Shepard. Bowie completely adores her and looks forwarded to seeing her. She is always on time, and is great with keeping him active throughout the day and evening. She will send me pictures and notes about his day. I’m never have to worry when Christina is watching him because she is completely trust worthy. I recommend her highly.

Safety, trust & environment

In my house we have 2 cats and 1 dog, the cats mind themselves and have their own room to relax in, and my dog is always looking for more dog friends. His name is Mac, and he is a husky mix; he is neutered, trained, and incredibly dog friendly. We have the majority of the rooms gated off- including the kitchen, basement, and mud-room. Along with this I can easily crate your pup, set up a private feeding area, and supply enough toys to entertain them! My yard is not fenced in, but I have a dog runner/leash and can take your pup for plenty of walks! The neighborhood I live in is very pet friendly and safe, with many families and other pet owners. At your house I am able to grab your mail, water your plants, take out your garbage, and maintain the general cleanliness of your house! I have no problem leaving my own dog at home if your pup is not dog friendly, and I will gladly play or sit with your pup for hours at a time! For cats I will clean their litter box daily along with feeding them and giving them water whenever needed, and I will gladly play with them if they would like!

Information Christina O. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs and dietary rules, the temperament of your pup, and how much training they have. It is also useful to know your dogs regular schedule and any quirks your pup may have.

A typical day

I love to take the dogs I'm with on hikes in the parks near my house, to the dog park, and on fun little store visits to pet friendly places. I can ensure that your pup gets as much or as little social interaction as you want. I also love playing regular games of fetch and tug-of-war, along with teaching pets new games like hide & seek or find it.
