From mini poodles to St Bernard's!

Pet care experience

For the past five years I have had a miniature poodle, Zeus, and a St. Bernard hound mix, Willard, that my family and I have raised from puppies. From the tiny to the gigantic I love spending time and taking care of dogs. For the last two summers we have also been fostering dogs, so I have experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I have administered eye medicine to my dog and trained my dogs to sit, lay down, do paw, and heel.

She did great job! Should on right in time, was a great listener, and played with our puppy so much that we got home to a sleepy dog (which we wanted so we could get some rest!)

Christine is the best with pets. She loves dogs and all animals and is great with long walks and getting them exercise. She’s never late and handles everything.

Christine is a true animal lover....dogs, cats, horses, fish. She’s always loved animals since she was a small child, starting with peacocks and pandas! She currently takes care of two dogs, a 100 lb St Bernard mix and a mini poodle. Christine is very loving, caring and patient with these dogs, taking them on long walks, playing with them. feeding them and working with them with a dog trainer. She is a very responsible young woman and has had excelled at all of the jobs she has had since she was 16. I highly recommend her to walk and sit for your pets!

I live in a University dormitory so I would only be able to go to others' houses to watch their dog. I can also do dog walks.

Information Christine C. would like to know about your pet

I love all kinds of dogs! I have a mini poodle and a St. Bernard so size isn't an issue!

A typical day

I love to hike and go on long walks, I will make sure to take your dog to great places to get exercise and burn off some energy. I love to run around and play all sorts of games like fetch or tug-a-war. We would also head to the dog park, if your dog likes to play with other dogs.

Availability

I am extremely flexible with my schedule. I am a student at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, but all my classes are online. Therefore, I can work all day and attend my 50 minute classes while watching and caring for the dog. I will work full or part time and am available any day of the week. I would love to work until the end of the semester but I can also do one time jobs.
