Safety, trust & environment

At my home I have a nice sized fenced backyard for run and fun, several small crates, pup/cat beds and blankets that are available for any furry snuggler that's visiting. As well as pet dishes (stainless steel, slow down, and lick mats) for food/water. Lastly we do have some leashes and collars on hand if necessary. My fur baby recently passed away so I don't currently keep the snack closet stocked but would be more than willing to have your pets favorites on hand. At your home I'm happy to abide by whatever established rules you have set for your pet e.g. no pups on the furniture, or snacks after a specific time, etc. Your home your rules.

Information Christina S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance if your pet has any special needs (medical or physical) or quirks (e.g. food aggression, excitement potties, etc.). I don't shy away from untrained or aggressive pets but would prefer to know in advance if there are particular to any individuals, behaviors, or smells. e.g. loud voices/noises, candles/incense, uniforms, etc.

A typical day

I'm a pretty active, outdoors kind of gal, so if your pet loves being outside, walking, running, playing, we'll be in the backyard, or exploring the neighborhood on a walk or run. If approved we may even take a trip to the dog park, dog beach, or just go for a drive to feel the wind in our ears. On the flipside as a previous owner of a couch spud I also love to snuggle up and just relax in a furry love bubble of pets and playful indoor activities like find the treat hided and seek, laser light catch, and how long can we "staaayyy" before we lose attention. For my senior and special needs community whatever their pet parents says, goes! I will provide all the love, patience, exercise and care required to keep them comfy, fed, hydrated, stimulated, clean, and safe.

Trustworthy Sitter, Happy Pets!

Pet care experience

As a lifelong animal lover with years of personal pet ownership and care, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your four legged family members. Having raised and cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs (all sizes and temperaments), cats (even a hairless one) and small animals (Birds, Bunnies, Bearded dragon, Iguana, and a few Sugar Gliders), I bring a deep passion for your pets overall well-being, providing attentive, compassionate, and reliable care tailored to each pet's unique needs. Whether it's potty training, basic training, daily walks, playtime, giving medication, overnight stays, and gentle patience with seniors, I'm dedicated to ensuring your pet(s) are comfortable, happy, and safe. Treating them as a member of my own family, allowing you to worry less while your away.

Very flexible and adaptable to maintaining our pets and our home. She kept us very well informed with texts and pictures, and quick to ask questions about their behaviors and things she saw around the house.
