Dependable care for your animals!

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Christina! I'm Veterinary student at the University of Minnesota. I have 5 years of experience working in a Veterinary Clinic, and animals are my passion! I knew I wanted to spend my life saving animals from a very young age, and I’m just a few years away from doing so! I grew up in a pack of rescue dogs, and I believe they are truly part of the family. Spending time with animals not only benefits them, but us too! Petting and bonding lowers stress levels in pups and their people. I love to run, walk and be outside. My pups too do! I'm extremely detail oriented and punctual, and have experience with anxious and special needs dogs and cats. Rescues are my forte !

Christina was great. She went above and beyond for our pet. I would highly recommend her and will use her service again.

It was a huge leap of faith for me to leave my two cats in the care of someone I don't know, especially my senior kitty, who is nearly 20 years old and has some special care needs. Christina's veterinary training and the meet-and-greet before we booked instantly lessened my anxiety. She asked all the right questions and gave me confidence that my cats would be well cared for. Her regular check-ins while I was away allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. She went above and beyond caring for my cats, especially my senior, and exceeded my expectations. Christina is truly an animal lover, reliable, trustworthy, and caring. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to hire her again.

Christina is a great pet sitter! We had her do daily checks with our cat. She provided detailed updates on his activities and provided him with lots of attention and affection while we were gone. I would definitely recommend her and will book her again.

Great with the dogs, one of whom can be a handful. Really appreciated the excellent communication, too. Would recommend without hesitation.
