Keeping Pets Happy and Healthy!

Pet care experience

I’ve raised cats and dogs in my home all my life, and love connecting with new pets! I’ve been dog walking and sitting since I was a young teenager, and have only developed a greater love for furry friends over time. I’ve worked with all kinds of breeds, from small to large, and forged a bond with each and every one. I also have experience training dogs (leash training, crate training, potty training, and learning new tricks), and since I work from home, will be able to give your pet lots of time and attention. The apartment complex where I live is extremely pet-friendly, and most residents have dogs, so puppy playtime is also an option. I would love to help take care of your pet and treat them like my own!

Christina was so friendly and accommodating, even with this short-notice request. She sent photo updates during the day and it was awesome to see that Ruthie was getting socialization with other littles! Christina even went out of her way to find out the contact info of another pup’s groomer. Ruthie had a great time and I felt at ease knowing she was in good care of a fellow dog lover— would definitely book again. Thanks so much!

Christina was so wonderful with my Pomeranian. She stayed in touch and sent me photos and updates. My mind was at ease knowing he was with her.
