Safety, trust & environment

As a mother of 2 boys, 2 dogs, and 3 cats, and a 4th Grade Teacher, safety is my first priority. I am very aware of my surroundings, focused on keeping everyone protected and clear of harmful or unsafe environments. I have taught my own dogs to focus and avoid distractions to always maintain safe surroundings.

Pet care experience

I have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own that make my family complete. I treat them with the love and kindness they deserve. I trained my dogs alongside a Professional K-9 Officer providing me with the strategies necessary to gain the respect of any dog with positive praise and rewards. I have always had a special connection with cats being surrounded by them since I was a baby. My love of animals has motivated me to rescue and raise cats and dogs for the past 30 years.

Chrissy was punctual, attentive, and caring for our pup. She communicated and went above and beyond to support us while we were away from home.

Chrissy is very responsive, met my dog in advance of her scheduled visit, and sent great pictures. We would definitely have her watch Bailey again!

Chrissy was fantastic; so much more than I expected. She had a place already as dy set up at the beach with supplies. She is so kind, personable and was great with my dog Jaydee. I look forward to meeting with her again and again!
