We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Christina! This was the first time we’ve ever left our pup, so naturally we were a little nervous, but we truly didn’t have to worry at all. We received photos, videos, and updates throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious that our dog was getting plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love. Our dog is young, energetic, and can be a handful at times, but our sitter handled her wonderfully and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. The best part was seeing how happy our dog was when we picked her up. She was clearly well cared for and comfortable the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust her with our dog again. Highly recommend!

Christina did a wonderful job watching after our dog Viper! Everything was spot on, great communication, clean environment, and made a really good connection with my dog to make him feel safe and comfortable. Definitely recommend her to watch over any pets in the future.

Christina was great with my little dog who had never been left with a sitter before. She made sure he was happy and well cared for. Updates were sent daily with photos. He went on walks & lots of special attention. He stayed a week. Would highly recommend her as a sitter.

Christina did great looking after Lexi, our Frenchi, while we took a quick weekend trip. She provided us timely updates, making us feel comfortable that she was in good hands while we were away.

Christina was wonderful with our dog Kyla while we were away on vacation. She provided daily photos and updates to reassure us that she was comfortable. When we picked her up she seemed relaxed and happy and very well taken care of. We will definitely reach out to Christina again the next time we travel.

Schedule

I’m home throughout the day and able to give dogs plenty of attention and supervision. Dogs receive frequent potty breaks (every 0–2 hours) and at least one longer walk each day along with several shorter walks. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs are rarely left alone and usually relax in the living room with me while I work. I keep a calm, consistent routine so dogs can feel comfortable and settled during their stay.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a calm, quiet home environment and only host one family’s dogs at a time so each pet receives plenty of attention and supervision. My home does not have other pets or children, which helps create a peaceful environment for dogs who may be nervous or sensitive. Because the yard is unfenced, all outdoor time is supervised and on leash for safety. Dogs receive frequent potty breaks and daily walks. I always follow each owner’s care instructions carefully to make sure your pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible during their stay.

A typical day

Dogs staying with me follow a calm, consistent routine. Since I work from home, pets usually spend the day relaxing in the living room with me while I work. The day typically includes: • Morning potty break and walk • Relaxing time indoors with supervision • Several short potty breaks throughout the day • At least one longer walk for exercise • Plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles if they enjoy that In the evening, dogs usually relax with us in the living room and are welcome on furniture or beds if that’s what they’re used to at home. I also send daily photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing during their stay.

To make your dog’s stay as comfortable as possible, I like to know: • Any medical conditions or medications (oral or injected) • Daily routines, feeding schedules, and favorite toys • Exercise preferences and energy level • Any anxieties, fears, or triggers • If your dog is okay with furniture, beds, or other areas in the house Knowing these details ahead of time ensures I can provide personalized care, maintain consistency, and keep your pet safe and happy. Dogs with separation anxiety or sensitive temperaments often do best in my calm, one-family-at-a-time environment, so I appreciate any info that helps me make their stay relaxing.
