Big Heart for Dogs -Small and Large

I have owned dogs for most of my adult life and grew up with dogs as well. I place a strong emphasis on good manners and positive training, and I’ve taught all of my dogs a variety of tricks and basic obedience. I currently have a two-year-old female Bloodhound who is incredibly gentle, loving, and submissive—despite her wrecking-ball size—and she does well with other dogs as long as they can tolerate (or match) her big energy! I also have a resident cat, so I only accept dogs that are known to be calm, respectful, and safe around cats.

Christina is soo nice and you can tell she really loves and cares for any animal in her care. Christina sends lots of nice pictures and gives you a daily update. I will definitely be using Christina to care for Pupperoni again in the near future

Christina has been fantastic with my dog! She’s taken care of both walks and pet sitting, and I’ve always been really happy with her services. She’s reliable, caring, and great at communicating, which makes the whole experience stress-free. She keeps me updated and is always responsive, which I really appreciate. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. I fully trust her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter.

Christina is reliable and gives very good care to Buddy. He is well taken care of and I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.

Christina is a fantastic dog sitter. She is attentive and loving, and my dog always comes back content and tired! So glad I found her

Schedule

I work from home so my schedule is quite flexible for the most part. My busiest times are after school when I’m running my teenagers to their various activities or engagements! But I’m sure things are very workable on a case by case basis!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard and as mentioned one playful hound who loves all dogs to help, entertain and tire your dog out! I back onto an off leash area if your dog is good with recall. And I am happy to use crates, my dog is crate trained, and quite happy to sleep there at night!

Pets

A typical day

My girl Lola (bloodhound) will be the greeter and will likely have a rousing game of chase to start. At some point later in the day a walk will likely happen to keep all minds calm!
