Pet care experience

Here for your four-pawed friend

I grew up in a household where our dogs were like our siblings, as an adult I've either lived in pet filled homes or owned my own dogs. I also spent five winters dog-sledding, which involved working with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and loving them just the same! I'm currently a dog-mom to our lovely Rosie Doodle. I will treat your pets, and your home, like they are my own. My husband and I both work from home so more often that not one or both of us is here to keep your pets company. We are happy to set up meet and greets. We live walking distance to an off-leash dog park, multiple trails and the beach. We spend most of our days outside. Feel free to ask me any questions and let me know anything special that your furry family members need or prefer. We have a 3 year old daughter who loves all animals, she is very gentle and caring. Please let me know how your pets interact with young children if you are looking for doggy daycare/boarding. Thank you.

Drop-In Visits • Aug 23, 2026

Christina was excellent with our two cats. I would get an update of the visit every time she came. Everything was done every visit as instructed. She is very friendly and approachable and would recommend her for anyones pet sitting needs.

Dog Walking • Mar 02, 2026

I called Christina very last minute and she arranged a meet and greet right away and then came the next day for a walk. I was so grateful to have her come and Gus seemed calm and happy when I got home. I would definitely ask her back

Boarding • Feb 28, 2026

Luna had an amazing time with Cristina and playing with Rosie!! There were trail walks and romps. Christina kept us up to date with pics and videos so we could see how much Luna was settled in. We would’ve thrilled to leave Luna there anytime.
