Reviews
Christine did an excellent job taking care of our fur babies, and we are thrilled to have found someone we can count on for future needs too! Thank you so much ?
We hired Christine to watch our 4 dogs while we went on vacation. One of our dogs is very particular about people and she loved Christine as did the other dogs. Christine is very dependable and trustworthy and sent pictures and communicated with us regularly. We would definitely use her again!
Christine is absolutely wonderful and my sweet pup adored her and felt safe and loved while we were on vacation. I had no doubt she was the right fit for my Ellie because she knew exactly how to work with dogs with anxiety issues. I will use her again for sure!
Christine gave me peace of mind when it came to having her watch my fur babe. I had never left my dog with anyone other than family so I was a bit nervous. After the meet and greet I knew my pup would be in great hands! I will definitely be contacting Christine in the future for my dog watching needs!

Safety, trust & environment
Even if theres a fence, I will go outside with your pet to make sure there is no escape and that they actually potty. I have a lot of experience with crate training. If there is no fence, dog will be kept on leash outside at all times.
Information Christine B. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if your dog has special needs, behavioral issues, special rules or medication. Dogs thrive on routine and I want to make sure I'm sticking to their established routine. I have a lot of experience with nervous dogs who have anxiety and can read animal body language pretty well. I go very slow with these nervous babies. It is PERFECTLY ok if you're dog is not my best friend. Not all of them will warm up to me and that's ok! All dogs and cats are different. My husband works most weekends so I will often have my daughter with me. She has been taught about proper pet interaction. Please do not book If this makes you uncomfortable.
A typical day
Walks, belly rubs, play time, talk time, and cuddle time. High energy breeds: if they need to be ran with I'm happy to run with them as well!
