Lover of all animals.

Pet care experience

I love animals with more than 30 years of pet care (cats, dogs, birds, mini horses, chickens, rabbits, goats, koi, reptiles). I can help with transport to appts, grooming, walking, drop ins at your house to care for your pets several times a day and pet sitting in my house. I currently have dogs, cats and birds. I also had koi fish for ten years and two huge tortoises. Years ago I fostered for the Houston sheltie sanctuary, and I continue to help rehome/rescue pets. I connect more with animals than most humans. I have helped birth kittens and pups, hand feeding baby birds and had a working small farm with goats, a pig or two, chickens and mini horses. If your pet has any special needs, allergies, medications, health risks, medical conditions, special food/treats or tempermant concerns, please share! The more info provided, the better the quality of care and attention. Additional fur babies can have a rate discount. Please check out additional services. If you prefer your fur baby be crated or have their own room, I can provide that. My pets are used to me watching pets and after the initial introduction, think they are part of the pack. Cats, rabbits, turtles, reptiles and hamster/gerbils are welcome too! I have outdoor cameras at the front of the house and driveway. Unfortunately I do not board pits or pit mixes, due to the age and size of my dogs. Also on a case by case basis, I can be available for larger dogs, would have to have a meet and greet.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard with a pool. Dogs are never left unattended in back yard. I have a big dog and small dogs and cats, they are all very sweet and older. I also have a separate room to board animals, if requested. For small dogs that insist on sleeping in the bed, we are ok with that too. I am CPR and First aid trained for humans. Dogs will be taken on walks and play in the backyard.

Information Christine D. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with large and small dogs, dogs with special needs, and older dogs. Would like to know about your dog’s personality when meeting new dogs, and how they are on a leash. How their temperament is with cats and other dogs? Unfortunately I cannot board pits, pit mixes or any dog that is aggressive due to having small dogs and cats. It is also helpful for your profile of your animal to be complete with information and pics.

A typical day

With a large backyard and pool for the breeds that like water, there is plenty of space to run around. I have a covered back patio for shade. I also have a safe neighborhood to take dogs walking. There is also the dog park in the area. Happy to play fetch or whatever you baby likes to do.

When boarding and we are away, your fur babies will be separated in the front room. I am currently working full time but can still board during the week. With mine and my spouse’s schedules, your pet will not be alone more than 7 hours at a time. We are homebodies and enjoy being at home. Happy to take care of most types of animals. I can dog walk on weekends.
