Home full time- pets are family!

Pet care experience

I want to start by saying that we are a busy house of pups coming and going pretty much all the time! I have so many faithful repeat clients who have become part of the family. We love meeting new super playful friends! Sometimes we can have 6 or 7 dogs here at a time. If your pup loves going to the dog park, this is the house for them! I am a stay at home mom so I am home pretty much all the time. A lot of times, I am available last minute, too! I love it when I can help people when they are in a bind and need care for their pup quickly. I do my best to keep my calendar updated, so if it says I have availability, I can most likely take them! My backyard is a great size and is also treated for pests! My pup and our guests always have a great time running around. We take trips to the dog park 3-4 days a week, but only with your permission. If I do need to leave the house for a long period of time, it's rarely for more than 5 hours at a time (for our doggy daycare guests- no more than one hour). I love this job so much! It feels so good that you can go on your trip or to work for the day and feel comfortable leaving your pooch with me and they will get SO MUCH love and attention just like you do at home!

Christina took GREAT care of my dog while he was in her care. I was lucky enough to receive pictures and updates daily, which made me feel comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend Christina as a doggy sitter, and will definitely be using her again in the future!

She does such a great job with my Bella girl! Kept her exercised and loved on.

Information Christina S. would like to know about your pet

I can only accept pets for boarding who get along with my high energy boxer-coonhound puppy and also with kids! I would love to watch any breed, but I prefer to not have dogs that chew on furniture and such in my house. I keep plenty of various kinds of toys, so hopefully they wouldn't get bored enough to chew on the wrong thing! I do accept more than 2 dogs sometimes if I know it will be a great group, but never more than 4 guests at a time. Sometimes the statement, "the more the merrier!" is really true!
