Loving and Fun Dog Lover

Pet care experience

Hello my husband (Tony) and I have been pet sitting for over 15 years. When your dog is with us try and keep to the same schedule that you have, so there isn't much change for them. When we pet sit I love to send photos and updates to the families to let them know how their dog is doing, because I know it can be hard leaving behind your four legged family member. I think its important to know that your animal is loved and cared for while you are away to make your time apart a lot easier. I treat any dog as I would my own because I know that they are family! I have a border collie who gets lots of love and attention between me and my husband and he always loves to have fur friends come stay with us. If I do work my husband at this time is working from home so he is home with our pup and any others that we sit. Our dog He is super friendly and loves dogs of all sizes (From tiny 4 lb puppies to his fur cousin a Doberman).

Christina and Antonio were great with my two girls! They responded quickly to communications and sent pictures and videos during their stay. Recommend!

First time using a sitter off of this site. Was VERY impressed with Christina. She took great care of my dog. He truly seemed happy when he was there! I would highly recommend her! Will definitely use her again!! ???

I met with Antonio for a meet and greet and it went well. Our dogs got along with Lando right away. Throughout the stay, Christina and Antonio weren’t as communicative as we hoped, it being our first time boarding our dogs. We didn’t receive very many updates on our dogs over the 4 nights our dogs spent with them, about 1 picture a day or none at all. On the 3rd day, I reached out to see how the dogs were doing and that’s when we were told our dogs weren’t on their best behaviors. We appreciated the honesty and appreciated that Christina and Antonio still welcomed them to stay until we were back home. Overall, it wasn’t a bad experience. We just wished there was more updates.

Information Christina S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know, what activities they enjoy, when and how often they eat, if they are aggressive to other animals or people, are they house trained if they got off a lead would they run, and what they are afraid of. Do they have separation anxiety and can be left alone.

A typical day

I can take your dog(s) on walks or do activities that they enjoy and keep them busy. Our dog loves to play if other dogs are interested so usually dogs go home exhausted from all of the playing. Our dog loves the dog park, playing fetch or playing with other dogs.

Between my husband and myself one of us is home almost always as he works from home. So it’s easy for us to keep to a good routine with dogs in our home. We may have to go to do things but are never gone more than 5 hours max.
