Pet care experience

Big or small - I love them all!

I have owned and loved and cared for pets my entire life. Dogs, cats, birds, fish, gerbils/hamsters, hermit crabs and an occasional set of chickens. I will walk, run, take to dog parks, dog washes, go on drives, snuggle, relax, just be present with your pets.

Christine was great! Beautiful home, quick to respond, and provided updates frequently. She and her family loved on my pup! I knew Konu was in good care. I will definitely book again!

Second booking with Christine was as smooth as our first. She is reliable, takes extra wonderful care of our dog, and cat. They were so excited to see her. She also took great care of our house, and offers us such peace of mind that everything at home is well. Christine is easy to communicate with and was flexible when a family emergency shifted the dates of our trip. Cannot recommend her highly enough.

Christine helped us out with both our kitties and outdoor plants on two separate occasions. Both were healthy and happy upon return. Christine provided detailed communication with updates and pictures. Highly recommend!

Schedule

I work full-time but more than half my time is spent working from home. On days I need to be away, I line up help or arrange my schedule to return home. I have a cameras in my home with emergency connections so I can monitor.

Safety, trust & environment

I generally offer care in the home of the pet owner. I treat a pet owners home as if it were my own - often better. :-) With my primary goal being engagement, snuggles, care, and proper watering/feeding of animals, I will also help collect mail, water plants, vacuum, dust, laundry -- do whatever is deemed helpful.
