I'm currently in college taking classes online, so I'm at home with some free time on my hands. It's nice to have the flexibility to manage my schedule that way

Information christina r. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special needs of your dog that I should I account for, if they bark often/at night, if they’re potty trained and friendly with other dogs and if they have any injuries or anything wrong with them that I should watch out for!!

A typical day

I enjoy keeping pets active and engaged. If they want a walk, I will take them for a walk. If they enjoy playing fetch, I am happy to play with them. I aim to meet their needs and ensure they have a fun and stimulating experience.

Pet care experience

I have a year of experience fostering a variety of animals, including kittens, adult cats, puppies, and senior dogs. My friends and family have also relied on me to walk, feed, and provide companionship for their pets. Additionally, I have experience in training puppies and providing specialized care for older dogs, which sets me apart from other sitters.

Christina was great with my dog. She watched him for 2 nights at her house. She built trust with him and made accommodations to make him feel comfortable at her house (sleeping in the bed with her). She communicated with me on how he was doing daily. I would book again with Christina.

Christina is great! Daisy came back such a happy dog. I know she got a ton of love and good care. I will definitely use Christina again.

We are so grateful for the way she took care of our Lunita; you can tell she was treated with so much affection, and that truly warms our hearts. In fact, we have to travel again, and we’ve already asked if we could leave her with her.

Christina walked my 3 dogs daily while I was away. My dogs were very hesitant to walk at first and she was calm, patient and gentle with them to gain their trust. Her communication skills were excellent and she gave me frequent updates. I would hire her again to take care of my dogs.
