30+ Years Loving Trusted Pet Care

**If you look through our gallery of photos, you’ll see our family pets but then pets that we’ve cared for, in our home and theirs, and how we have integrated them into our family and day to day activities. These photos and this high quality care is what you can expect when we take care of your furry friend!** With over 30 years of hands-on pet care experience, my husband and I are passionate about giving cats and dogs the love and attention they deserve. I grew up with pets and one of my first responsibilities as a kid was to take care of the family pets. At 22, I adopted my first cat of my own. Since meeting my husband 13 years ago, we’ve shared our home with five wonderful cats; we currently live with our two kids, two cats and and our sweet rescue dog, Bodie. We truly understand that every pet has their own unique personality—whether they're playful and energetic, shy and sensitive, or somewhere in between. Over the years, we've cared for family pets, as well as those of friends and neighbors, always treating them like our own. We also have a soft spot for helping stray cats in our neighborhood, making sure they get the care they need. Our approach to pet sitting is built on trust, experience, and genuine love for animals. Whether your pet needs belly rubs, playtime, or just a cozy lap to nap on, we’re here to make them feel safe and happy while you're away!

Chrissie was great with Buster! She sent a lot of cute pictures and had great communication. It was reassuring to know he was in good hands!

Christine & AJ were great! They sent frequent updates and photos which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear Watson was treated as part of the family during his stay. We loved that Watson was their only guest since meeting a lot of new dogs at once can be overwhelming for him. They were very accommodating of how we introduced him to their dog Bodie and they did great together!

When Christine & Andrew visit my kitties they always make an effort to spend time with them even though they are a bit shy. Shadow immediately took to Christine and loves getting belly rubs. They even go the extra mile to make sure that Marmalade, the neighborhood ginger cat that spends most of his time outside my house or somewhere nearby, gets fed every day while I'm away. They are reliable, nice people that love animals and I highly recommend them.

Doggy Day Care • Apr 05, 2026

We absolutely loved having Christine and Andrew dog sit for us. They were, kind, flexible, and extremely communicative (which i super appreciate). I will absolutely not hesitate to use them again in the future when we are in the area. Highly recommend ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

Whether in our home or yours, we provide loving, personalized care to make pets feel safe and comfortable! In our home, we live with a sweet, friendly dog who gets along great with other dogs, cats, and even kids, as well as two cats who are also dog-friendly. We have a big backyard for playtime and are just minutes from the greenway, perfect for long, scenic walks. If needed, we have a dog crate available for pets who are crate-trained. For pets who feel most at ease in their own home, we’re happy to provide care there too! Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, we make sure they get the attention and love they deserve. Our goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy and relaxed while you’re away!

Pets

A typical day

A typical day in our house is full of fun and a little bit of chaos!!! We all wake up pretty early and try to squeeze in a walk before work and school. Then comes breakfast, treats, pets, anything else your dog or cat needs. Throughout the day, we play and go on walks, and then in the evening, your pet will be included in whatever family activities we have planned!

Please let us know anything and everything about your dog or cat and their daily routine so we can give them high quality care and love while you’re away! Their feeding schedule, how and where they sleep, and anything else you think is important about their routine!
