Availability
I am currently working full time from home with a very flexible schedule during the week. On the weekend we regularly have plans. But if we stay in the neighbourhood, we can take walks or take care of dogs as well if required. After work my husband would also accompany me during my dog walks if he has time :)

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a very dog friendly apartment building, so if your dog and I get along well and you would like me to take care overnight, I would love to host him/her in our apartment. I’ll make extra sure that the apartment is a safe place for your dog and will make sure that your dog feels comfortable and their boundaries and needs are taken care of. I will treat and love your dog as if they were my own.

Information Christina & Stefan T. would like to know about your pet
The more knowledge you can provide, the better! Do they have a set schedule, allergies or dietary restrictions, sounds/triggers that make them anxious or I should look out for, boundaries I should set or anything else you think I should be aware of, please let me know :)
A typical day
Your dog can snuggle on my lap when I work and of course we take breaks for playtime. I can explore your dogs favourite park in the neighbourhood, take long walks and play with their favourite toy. I’ll give him lots of love, belly rubs and cuddles if they like.

Pet care experience
I have always loved to interact and take care of dogs and cats of friends and family. Unfortunately I do not have the capacity to have pets on my own right now, so I enjoy when I can take care for pets from time to time. I took care of my friend‘s toy poodle during her absent and always enjoyed accompanying my other friends during their dog walks! My husband grew up with two big Newfound dogs, so we are a very pet loving household. Since we moved to New York from Germany, I miss taking care of dogs and taking long walks with a furry little friend. I don’t have a dog myself and would only walk/sit one dog at once. So 100% attention and love goes to your dog! Since I work fully remote and my husband works from home most of the week as well we love having the company. We live in a pet apartment building close to Queens Plaza and can provide a calm, clean and safe apartment for your dog when they stay over. My week is also fairly flexible so I can adapt to the schedule your dog requires and take them on long walks! I would love to get the chance to be your new reliable dog caregiver and give the dedication and care I would if it were my own. I will let you know every step of the way, send lots of pictures and updates and take care of any feedback, concern or wish you have. I‘m looking forward to meeting you and see if we’re a good fit for your dog sitting needs!
Reviews

Christina took such good care of Elmo and sent so many cute pictures throughout the day!

Christina and Stefan were absolutely amazing with Cashew! From the very first message, they were warm, responsive, and clearly genuine animal lovers. Their communication was fantastic — I got regular updates and photos throughout the stay, which put my mind completely at ease. What really stood out was how compassionate and attentive they were. It was obvious Cashew felt safe and loved with them, not just cared for. They treated him like their own, and you could tell they truly cared about his comfort and happiness the whole time. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Trustworthy, kind, and clearly passionate about what they do. Cashew and I will absolutely be booking with Christina and Stefan again!

I can’t properly put into words how fantastic Christina and Stefan are. They boarded my dog on a last-minute request during the holiday chaos and were so gentle and loving with him that when I came to pick him up, he barked at me for a moment thinking I was an intruder in his new home 😆. They also sent multiple photos daily and were incredibly easy to communicate with. Coming from someone who has used Rover for years, I recommend them as highly as possible.

Amazing and beautiful people! They truly cared about my baby and took great care of him, from feeding him to taking him on walks to administering his medicine. They treated him like their own and I am beyond grateful. Teddy came to me so loved and I am able to see how well he was cared for. Thank you both! Amazing care and appreciate all the updates and kindness.
