Pet care experience

Avid animal lover since ‘97

Hello! I provide personalized, in-home pet care designed to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home while you’re away. I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up in a home with multiple dogs. I’ve also volunteered at Animal Friends, caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong understanding of different temperaments, routines, and individualized care needs. ✨ What sets me apart: -Specialized puppy care & basic training (your pup may go home with a new skill!) -Experienced in senior dog care -Comfortable administering medications -Consistent 2–4 hour potty breaks & exercise -Work-from-home schedule = constant supervision and attention -A calm, structured environment tailored to your pet. Your peace of mind matters: I limit alone time to about an hour whenever possible and keep a close eye on every pet in my care. I provide frequent updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. For more timid pets who shouldn’t be left alone at all, I have additional support from my partner who you will be able to meet! But they do not have to be included in our stay. What to have ready: Food, treats, medications (if needed), and something familiar like a blanket or clothing item for your scent. I treat every dog like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, loving, and reliable experience—for both you and your pet. 💜 Bonus: I’m known for sending lots of updates—you’ll hear about every adorable moment while your pup is here! Your pet will be treated like family… and may even be a little extra spoiled when you come home!

Christine is a super-duper sitter. Winnie is always happy and healthy when I pick her up. C is great at communicating both happy pictures and concerns as well as flexible timing. Thanks Christine!

I was nervous to leave my 17 year old dog, but Christina was amazing, and my doggy did well.

Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗

Christine was very kind and friendly to me and my babies. They spent the night with her because I had to work. My babies fell in love with her and her cat. Thank you Christine for helping me feel less stressed while away from my babies

Safety, trust & environment

I care for every pet as if they were my own. That means plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care tailored to their individual needs—just as you would provide yourself.

Pets

A typical day

Your pet’s day will be filled with a balance of relaxation and fun! We enjoy a cozy, calm environment with plenty of snuggles, along with playtime both indoors and outdoors. I provide frequent potty breaks based on your dog’s needs, along with walks, enrichment, and treats (always following your guidelines). My goal is to keep their routine as close to yours as possible while making their stay enjoyable and stress-free.

Please let me know about any medications, allergies, or triggers your dog may have, as well as any routines you currently follow.
