Pet care experience

Loving Care for Your Furry Family

I have cared for dogs for family and friends for many years. That hands-on experience taught me how to read a dog’s needs and make them feel safe and comfortable. I also volunteered as a dog handler for a 8-week period to compete in a dog show competition, where I learned how to manage dogs of all temperaments in high-energy environments. On top of my hands-on experience, I am majoring in Animal Biology, a field I chose because of my love for animals. This education has deepened my understanding of animal health and behaviour, making me a more knowledgeable and attentive caregiver.

Christina was an amazing dog sitter for Gino. She was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding, which made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. Because of Gino’s surgery history, I am very careful about who looks after him, but Christina followed all of his care instructions exactly and paid close attention to his needs. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. The best part was seeing how calm, relaxed, and comfortable Gino was while staying with her. That gave me great peace of mind. Christina kept me updated and was always thoughtful and attentive. I highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy dog sitter. We are very grateful for the wonderful care she provided, and I would happily book with her again.

Christina was great with Rocky. She sent lots of pictures and messages, which made it so easy to see he was doing well and getting tons of attention and playtime. She was also fast and responsive every time I reached out. From Rocky’s relaxed, happy body language in the photos, I could tell he felt safe and comfortable with her; a huge relief for an anxious pup like him. He especially loved running around Christina’s big backyard and playing fetch. It was clear he was having a great time. I felt confident that Rocky was in good hands, and the next time I need a dog sitter, I’ll be contacting Christina again.

Christina took wonderful care of our 4 month old Puppy for a few days while we were away. She sent plenty of updates and pictures of him throughout the day. She would play with him in the backyard and stayed consistent with his puppy schedule. Our puppy loved it there and we would definitely use her again!

Christina looked after our two Dogs for a couple of weeks and we know she took excellent care of them. They always seemed relaxed and happy, I could tell she made them feel at home. She provided lots of picture updates and was prompt with responses throughout the whole process. I would 100% book with Christina again!

Christina boarded my anxious dog, Rocky, for an evening and took great care of him. She helped him settle in quickly and sent reassuring photos showing he was relaxed and well looked after. She even did some training with him and handled his medications without any issue. Christina was also very responsive with messages throughout the stay.

Christina has been watching over my cat Lolita for the last few weeks while I’ve been away on important business. She always makes sure Lolita is well fed and she takes good care of my Lolita.

My home is set up perfectly for pets to feel comfortable and free. I have a large fenced backyard where dogs can run, play, and explore safely. I also have access to a nearby trails, which is perfect for dogs who love a good walk and some outdoor adventure. My house is fully dog proof as well I am able to separate different dogs based on their size or other needs.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours I should be aware of. I’d also love to know their usual feeding schedule and how often they’re typically walked so I can keep their routine as consistent as possible.
