Being a stay-at-home mom gives me a unique level of flexibility and consistency that works really well for pet care. My daily schedule is already built around being present, attentive, and responsive, which means I’m able to easily incorporate pet care into my routine without rushing or splitting attention. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can provide regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship—not just quick check-ins. I’m also able to adjust my day around a pet’s specific needs, whether that means sticking to a strict feeding schedule, giving medications on time, or providing extra attention for anxious or senior pets. This flexibility also allows me to be dependable for last-minute needs or changing schedules. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident that their pets are being consistently cared for, and I’m able to offer that steady presence. Overall, being home full-time lets me naturally extend the same care, patience, and attentiveness I give my family to the pets I look after—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home and in clients’ homes, safety, trust, and a calm, comfortable environment are my top priorities. I treat every pet like they are part of my own family and make sure they feel secure, cared for, and understood from the moment they arrive. In my home, pets are supervised and kept in a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and enrichment. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walks, and downtime so pets feel settled and stress-free. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys the company of other animals, which can be great for pets who are comfortable with gentle companionship. If a pet prefers their own space, I’m very mindful of that and always adjust interactions to match their comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize respecting their space and maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any specific household rules. I also make sure doors, gates, and leashes are handled with extra care to keep pets secure at all times. Building trust is important to me—not just with pets, but with their people. I communicate clearly, provide updates when requested, and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can respond quickly to their needs. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel relaxed and owners feel completely confident they’re in good hands.

Active, Loving Care for Dogs & Cats

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m an active, attentive pet lover who’s all about keeping your pets happy, healthy, and engaged. Whether your dog loves long walks, jogs, or playtime I’m ready to match their energy—I love getting outside and even running with dogs who need that extra exercise. One of the most meaningful parts of my life has been raising my rescue dog from puppyhood to 15 years old. Caring for him through every stage—from high-energy puppy days to his senior years—has given me deep experience with changing needs, personalities, and routines. It’s also shaped the patience, consistency, and attentiveness I bring to every pet I care for. I know every pet is different, so I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs. From playful pups to independent kitties, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s high-energy playtime, a calm walk, or extra TLC for older pets, I’m here to provide dependable, personalized care—and plenty of tail wags and purrs along the way!

Christine, what a godsend. She helped me through a tough situation for which I will forever be grateful. I would rebook this woman's services for everyday if I could afford it. She's kind, great with my little Vinnie, forever has a smile on her face, timely, dependable and helpful. You could not go wrong using her as your dog walker. Thank you Christine for a wonderful experience.

Christine was awesome with Fiona. She is very dependable and I will definitely try to use her again when Fiona’s regular sitter is on vacation.
