Christine's Pet Care

I am a lover of all animals and enjoy caring for them. I have had dogs since I was a little girl and even raised and homed two litters. I have had tortoises, a goat, and currently have some chickens along with my 2 dogs and 2 cats. I used to house/pet sit for friends and for clients from Rover but due to having children and my own pets I am only available for services at my house. I have looked after dogs, cats, horses and even a bird before but I am also open to other species. * I am gone once or twice a month in Southern California for 4-5 days so sometimes I am unable to commit to far in advance requests until I know what my schedule will be as it gets closer.

Christine was amazing with our sweet Cocu. I’m so fortunate for Christine’s quick response and flexibility with our last minute booking. Cocu, who is usually very timid, warmed up quickly to Christine and we immediately felt a sense of relief. Photos and updates were received, and Christine even kept Cocu in an area of her home away from other dogs or young children where she might be more comfortable. Thank you SO much Christine! Definitely would book again!

Christine was great! She watched our puppy while we spent the day in Yosemite, providing us with pictures and updates, and was super accommodating when we ended up needing to change our pick up time. Highly recommend!

Christine was amazing! Took great care of our dog and super easy to work with. Gave us lots of updates and pictures. Was able to have a stress free trip knowing our dog was having a great trip of her own.
