All pets are great pets!

Pet care experience

I am caring, active, energetic, and high spirited. I've been around animals my whole life. took care of a few friends dogs while they went on vacation and found it very rewarding. I am a hard working person and punctual. I am very good at communicating, you can expect me to keep you updated from the time me and your pet meet to the end. I have had pets my whole life from the age of 7 years old to now! I’ve had experience with different dog breeds, birds, cats and rabbits. I believe animals are so very much like humans just more forgiving. I am more than happy to open my door for any pet. I feel great in giving someone the option to have their pet stay with me in my home, so that they get updates, photos, videos and their pet is always around someone versus to being alone in a kennel at a vet. Growing up I begged my mom to take in rescues. I felt like they needed more of everything. I welcome all pets whether you have a dog, turtle, snake etc… I take any job I take on seriously.

Christina did a great job watching my two older chihuahuas! She sent several pictures and followed my instructions. I really could tell the dogs were well cared for, and I would certainly recommend her as a dog sitter.

Christina is amazing! My puppy was well cared for and he was excited to be there. He came home happy well behaved so I know he had a good day with her. I will definitely be using her again!

Christina is just lovely ! A natural caretaker ! My dogs loved her. I have a Bishon and a Boxer (mia and jamie) they loved staying over nights with her when I couldn’t find boarding in the area.

I love Christina! She took care of my chihuahua like she was her baby. My dogs name was Mimi and she loved Christina as well. I remember one time I was at work and got a text from Christina informing me about Mimi's condition. As much as I felt sad for Mimi I was relieved she was in the hands of such a great human being.

Safety, trust & environment

It depends on the pets I get to sit or board and also depends on the pet parents but initially I will always go off by routine. Meal, walk, playtime, rest, meal, walk, sleep. Pets are allowed on my furniture and there is no smoking in my apartment. I like to put on some anxiety music for pets on YouTube for those pets that seem irritable or just missing their family.

Information Christina R. would like to know about your pet

What's their diet like and what is their behavior like? Are they vaccinated? I do not have any breed preferences. Does your pet have a routine? Will he or she need any special care?

A typical day

Your pet and I can go on walks near Pennypack Park or around the block, its very spacious where I live and there are other dog walkers here as well. Your dog and I can play catch and tug of war. I'd make sure they are comfortable and always have food and water in their bowl.
