My name is Christina, I'm 26 years old and live in a downtown Santa Barbara. I live in a three bedroom house with two housemates and we have a fenced yard. I don't personally have any dogs but my housemates both have dogs, who are friendly and non-aggressive with other dogs. I live right by a few parks and love going for long walks around the neighborhood or up to The Mission to throw the ball. I love being outside so if your dog needs activity, I am your girl! I'm from Phoenix, Arizona and grew up in a home full of dogs. We had a yorkie, maltese, sigh-tzu, and two golden retrievers. My family used to breed golden retrievers so I had to get comfortable with the amount of work that requires, which was a lot. I love dogs and animals. I also work at a restaurant which gives me a very flexible schedule to take care of dogs and am always easy to get ahold of. I'm pretty patient and loving towards animals and would love to watch yours. Providing a safe and happy environment for your dog is a big priority to me. I can accommodate very active dogs but also the dog that just wants to relax, I am more than happy to reinforce whatever training style and routines you have in place. I get up early to feed the dogs and take them outside for a walk and also provide potty breaks every 2-5 hours. I also take dogs for a walk before bed.
