Pet care experience

Retired RN

As a retired RN and I put safety first. I’ve had pets my whole life and have experience helping others with their pets. I’ve also experienced care of sick animals. My goal is to take care of every breed! I’m taking care of dogs rescued from a kill shelter to highly expensive well bred dogs. I love cats as well and own a ragdoll boy and a shelter girl. I find myself feeding fish a pinch or two! If your dog loves to walk I do walk approximately 10 miles daily so they will be well exercised! I’m half Native American with the blessing of great instincts and intuition. I’ve developed a subspecialty as I have several clients whose fur babies suffer from anxiety. I bring my yoga mat and meditation music and allow them to approach me as they get comfortable. After 25 years of oncology and hospice Nursing it’s my pleasure to care for your pets.

Christine was a great pet sitter . She took excellent care of our 2 cats and handled giving daily medication to one . She was very caring and spent extra time brushing them. She is good at keeping in touch and sharing photos. I would definitely recommend using her .

House Sitting • Sep 14, 2026

We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, we knew our dogs were in the best hands. Christine was incredibly caring, attentive, and reliable, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were being so well taken care of. Christine kept us updated, sent pictures and videos, and went above and beyond to make sure all dogs were happy and comfortable. It was clear how much she genuinely cared, and that meant so very much to us. We came home to 3 very happy dogs, and we will absolutely ask Christine to sit for us again in the future. Highly, highly recommend! 🌟 Thank you Christine for taking such great care of Sperry, Bear and Buc! They miss you already! 💙

Christine was wonderful with my dogs while I was away! She took such great care of them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. Christine was attentive, responsible, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, well cared for dogs, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Christine and would absolutely trust her with my dogs again!

Christine was great when it came to caring for our pets. She sent lots and lots of pictures and made sure to communicate with us during her drop in visits! She also made sure that our Doberman ate his food while we were away due to the dog getting stressed that his parents are gone. Lots of attention and detail goes into her work and we enjoyed her commitment to our Doberman and cats!

Let me know everything I will need to know to provide exceptional care for your pet. I’m very intuitive and animals know that so we quickly develop a strong bond. For example the last dog I stayed with wanted to eat meals together. So we did!
