Doting Dog Mom

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Christina, and I am a fairly new Austinite! I moved in 2018 to pursue my Doctor of Occupational Therapy degree at the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. My schooling is hybrid style, so I am home the majority of the day to attend to your sweet dog! I live very close to parks and walking trails, perfect for a game of fetch or a nice long walk. My husband and I are both dog lovers and live a very active lifestyle. We love to explore new trails and outdoor treasures that Austin has to offer, and your dog is more than welcome to join us on our adventures! Although I grew up around dogs my whole life, I am a new dog mom to my sweet baby girl, Sierra Nevada. My husband and I rescued her from Austin Animal Center at the beginning of the year. When your dog stays with me, he/she will get all the love and attention by Sierra and me to have a great stay! Sierra loves nothing more than meeting new furry friends, and she will keep your dog entertained for their entire stay! We look forward to meeting you and your fur baby soon!

Christina was great! She was super flexible as our plans kept changing. She responded quick to all messages and my pup really enjoyed her visit. We will absolutely be using her again!

Christina did an amazing job of taking care of my dog while we were away for over a week! She replied to my messages very quickly, provided detailed and accurate instructions and directions as we were arranging the visits, asked all the right questions, and provided cute photos and excellent feedback all along the way. We were so happy to have met Christina and I feel like we really lucked out having found such a caring and great person to take care of Flynn while we are away!

Christina was amazing with our puppy Minnie. She sent us tons of updates, pictures, and videos. She even took the time to practice training with Minnie. We would 110% book her again.

Christina did a great job with our two Vizsla pups. She gave us continual updates with pictures throughout the day. Both dogs were walked twice and played tug of war and fetch with their stuffed gator. Would recommend Christina and would love to have her watch our pups again!
