Pet care experience

Hello there! 👋 I have been involved with my parents two pups for the past 8 years. I’ve watched them grow since they were 3mo. old and have experienced caring for post-op injury (double knee reconstruction) on one, and a mast cell tumor removal/chemotherapy/radiation treatment on the other. This has required taking care of bandage changes, feedings, bathroom breaks with a sling, many cuddles, etc. I have since added 4 additional dogs to my care along with 1 feline friend!

Our cats were well taken care of by Christina while on vacation. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Definitely plan on using Christina again.

Absolutely would recommend Christina! Not only was she available last minute, but she is very well prepared to board/host. She is very sweet and kind with your pets and gives them the utmost care and attention. Will definitely come back!

Christina has taken care of our dogs several times now and always does a great job. Our dogs are always excited to arrive at her house. She sends lots of photos and gives updates often. She is very responsive to messages. Over the holidays she gives them little gifts and NYE pup cups. Originally, we chose Christina because she has experience taking care of dogs post-op and one of our dogs had a recent ACL surgery. She took great care of him. It was clear she knew what she was doing. She is also very knowledgeable about dogs in general. It’s worth mentioning that once we needed an extra night at the last minute due to a flight cancellation and she was very kind and accommodating. We highly recommend Christina.

Christina was AMAZING! Our dog Rhodey had such a great time and she took care of him very well. We had boarded him for 5 days and he got so much love & cuddles during that time. She was a pleasure to communicate with, always responding quickly and providing details when needed. She even sent him home with a little gift! She's so sweet and kind, I would highly recommend her for any pet related service!! Was a true pleasure and will definitely hire her again :)
