Love 1st Pet Sitting of Sunrise
Pet care experience
I LOVE DOGS!!!! I am an Italian Greyhound rescue Foster mom /volunteer and certified in CPR. I have 2 Italian Greyhounds and specialize in this breed. I have a house with a 7 ft fenced in backyard and a small doggie door for full access to the yard. I live 15 minutes away from 3 different 24-hour pet emergency care centers. I will not watch aggressive dogs. Although my 2 small dogs get along with every breed and size, I am well aware that a lot of small dogs do not and I'm very conscious of that fact when Considering new clients. Rest assured your dogs will be safe with me. Safety and comfort are my utmost concern. I will pet sit any breed from puppies to seniors. My rates are based on a 24-hour day. Example: Overnight Boarding: drop off at 10 AM - pick up the next day at 10 AM. Addition time will be charged according to the number of additional hours of pet sitting are required. Daycare: is for 2-10 hours.
Reviews
I don’t even know where to begin! Christina treated my Italian greyhound Tortellini like her own. I’ve never trusted anyone more than I trust her. Her daily updates were so detailed and she sent me lots of beautiful pictures and videos. We dropped him off on new years eve and my baby is terrified of fireworks but she wrapped him in a blanket and held him in her arms the entire time, it is so clear that she loves and cares for all dogs so deeply. On top of everything, she has the sweetest Italian greyhounds, Tortellini had an amazing time with Luca and Nina and he definitely already misses them. I can’t recommend her enough, she is amazing!!
Chrissy was great! I was nervous to leave my puppy for the first time but it was obvious from drop off that he was in great hands! She sent daily updates which were much appreciated. I was able to relax knowing Kingsley was well taken care of.
There is only one person I trust my dogs throughout the years with and that is Chrissy. She has been taking care of my dogs for years. When I go away, I know I don’t have to be concerned about the wellbeing of my babies. The best dog sitter around.
Christina has been sitting my 12 year old, nervous, not very social, Italian greyhound for years! She is the only human my dog loves and trusts as much as she does me. Over the years, Lexi has had some health issues and I trust Christina explicitly! She treats Lexi and all the others she sits as if they are her own!! She is 100% trustworthy, dependable, and I wouldn’t bring Lexi to anyone else!!

Safety, trust & environment
My property is surrounded by a 7 foot fence that is impenetrable. I have a safety gate on either side of my house to keep the dogs from accessing the sides of the house leading to the front gate. I have a vet on call for home visits 24 hours a day.
Home
Information Christina W. would like to know about your pet
I highly recommend a meet and greet with all prospective clients. In my opinion, this is an essential step in assuring you and your pet will be happy and comfortable in my care. During the meet and greet, I will give you a tour of my property and answer all of your questions. This meeting is also helpful for your pup. When you bring them back for their stay they are already familiar with me and my family and usually adjust to the owner's absence much quicker.
A typical day
I believe it is important to stimulate dogs by not only playing with them but also talking to them and physical contact. When I am home the dogs are always usually within 2 feet of my body. I have baskets and baskets of toys ranging from fluffy squeaky toys to balls and teething bones.

Availability
I currently am working both from home and on campus. My guest dogs are usually alone in my house for 1-4 hours at a time. I do have a doggie door that is available to them when the sun is out. I close it in the evenings. I take the pups out between 4 to 6 times a day.
