Pet care experience

Profesh pet auntie & remote worker

- I work remotely full-time so I'll be staying with your dog(s) in your house the whole time aside from normal outings (e.g. grocery shopping, grabbing dinner with a friend, etc.). - I have cared for several local friends' dogs and homes over the past 15 years, and have done pet & house sits in other states via TrustedHousesitters since 2023. - I'm allergic to cats so only interested in sitting for dogs. - I'm happy to look after your plants, but I'd like instructions because I have been known to get overexcited with the watering for my own plants. Ha!

So lucky to have found Christina! She took excellent care of my dog while I was away and sent updates and pictures daily. I’m especially grateful that Christina easily made Pancino feel safe and comfortable, which is no easy feat for this separation anxiety ridden pup.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Christina. I've known Christina for over 18 years and from first-hand experience I can vouch not only for her character, but also for her house-sitting and pet-sitting skills. I am one of those people who treats my pets like family, and Christina has stayed in my home during my absence on multiple occasions, taking loving care of my (100lb+) dog (who had severe separation anxiety). I trust her unreservedly. She is honest, trustworthy, reliable, responsible, clean, considerate, compassionate and frankly one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

Christina has taken care of our dog many times over the course of the past 15 years, including toward the end of his life when he wasn’t doing very well. There is no person I’d rather have take care of our dog. She’s loving, responsible, kept us updated with pictures, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her!

Schedule

I work remotely full-time so I'll be staying with your dog(s) in your house the whole time aside from normal outings (e.g. grocery shopping, grabbing dinner with a friend, etc.). My work is pretty flexible so I can usually let them out or take them for a walk on your preferred schedule.

Christina can host up to 1 pet per night
I'd like to meet (either in person or virtually is fine) before I begin care. Please let me know if your dog(s) have any special dietary needs or allergies, if they are reactive on walks or there are areas I should avoid when walking them, if they have any physical needs (e.g. can't go up stairs) that I should be aware of. Also, if there are any ways I can help cut down on the anxiety of having you gone - extra treats, doing tricks, medication, etc.
