Putting the “care” in “petcare”

Pet care experience

I’m a student at Iowa State University studying animal science, and I’m home for the summer. My family has had collies since I was 3, so I have a lot of experience with mid-sized dogs. The collies we've had have all had different personalities, and I've gotten used to being around stubborn dogs. Along with the collies, we’ve had one cat and a smaller dog, so I’m comfortable working with any size and type of pets! My personality is very laid back and caring, which I find helps keep the animals calm and happy no matter the situation. I absolutely love all dogs, and I would be extremely happy to be able to show your dogs as much love as I can while I watch them.

We’ve had Christina come multiple times to let our dog out. She’s not only professional and courteous, she’s amazing with dogs. Highly recommend her!

Christina did a wonderful job doing a pet visit for our dog while we were gone for the day. She’s incredible with animals especially dogs. Our dog loves her. She really responds to her. We will definitely have Christina come again!

I have known Christina for many years. She adores animals (has two very good dogs of her own) and is one the most responsible people I know. She is outstanding at keeping them playful and happy while also being able to enforce rules when rules must be made. I don’t believe you’ll find a more enthusiastic caregiver than her.

Information Christina W. would like to know about your pet

Before watching a dog, I would like to know which toys they like to play with most, and what kinds of treats they like! I would also like to know if they have any health issues or behavior issues to make sure I keep everyone safe and happy.

A typical day

If there’s a park nearby, I can take the dogs there and let them sniff around. If not, I can find somewhere to walk where they’ll have a lot of people and dogs to meet.
