Quality Pet Care with Lots of Love

Pet care experience

I was raised with dogs and cats, lots of cats. I helped some cats give birth and nursed ill kittens back to health. I often watched friends pets of all sorts. I taught my own dog tricks and used him to help friends and family over come their fear of dogs. I often took on pets who were not fans of strangers. It was always a joy!

Awesome dog/cat sitter. Roxy had a great time and Kolby was completely relaxed when I got home. I love being able to leave my babies with a capable sitter but a bonus is happy pets when I return to a clean home. Thanks, Christina!

Christina was fantastic! The animals were well cared for and my home was also well cared for in my absence. It was a relief to be able to leave my pets in their own home and know they were going about their usual routine!

Christina was amazing and so thoughtful- excellent job house sitting and dog sitting. Scout was so happy and relaxed when we came home and our house sparkled- Christina kept us informed by daily notes, videos and photos. She even left a review of Scouts activity and a thank you card. We couldn’t have been more pleased. She was here for a week and gave Scout extra TLC and even some enhancement activities and maintained his schedule. I highly recommend Christina for dog sitting and house sitting.

Christina is incredible! She sent us plenty of YouTube videos and photos during her stay and always gave us multiple updates through out the day. She did puppy enrichment with them and gave them plenty of exercise with trips to the dog park and walks. We have had many dog sitters over the last 5 years and she is by far my favorite! Couldn’t recommend her enough!

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow your instructions to keep your fur baby safe and sound. I also like to mimic your routine as close as possible to keep them comfortable while they are separated from you.

Information Christina S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if any medication is needed, if they have separation anxiety. Are they escape artist, so I can be well prepared. Do they have any triggers I can avoid?

A typical day

I like to start the day with morning scratching/massages, if your pet likes them. Followed by some play time. I follow the feeding scheduling according to your wishes. Walks are always fun, we get to explore the area together or walk in a nearby park. I like playing throughout the day with their favorite toys or stuffy. We can relax together with a book or a movie in the evenings. I usually do a clean up before bed, pick up toys, clean up their mess if they use your backyard. That is something I handle throughout the day as well.
