Pet care experience

Are you in need of a caring and experienced pet sitter for your beloved furry friend? Look no further! My name is Christine, and I’m here to provide a cozy and loving home away from home for your pets. With over 30 years of experience in pet care and cuddles, I have shared my life with both cats and dogs. My wonderful feline companions Kato, Minnie, and Marley, as well as our cherished pups Stevie and Keisha, have been an integral part of our family. After Stevie crossed the rainbow bridge, we welcomed Keisha, a bubbly Golden Doodle, into our lives from the Edmonton Human Society. Keisha is a social butterfly who adores all dogs and relishes group walks and playful romps in our pet-friendly backyard or at the dog park. Rest assured, our home is a haven for pets, featuring a fully fenced yard secured with a gate to ensure your pet's safety. I have extensive experience caring for pets of all ages, even those with a bit of a 'cattitude' (Minnie had a penchant for being picky with her affections, but we had a special bond!). I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your cherished pet in the care of someone else. That's why I'm committed to making your time away stress-free. I'll provide regular photo and video updates, allowing you to relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I'll make sure they feel right at home, whether that's cuddling on the couch or playing in the yard. I aim to create a wonderful and safe environment for your furry friend, giving you peace of mind during your time apart. Let's schedule a meet-and-greet to ensure it’s a perfect fit for your pet's needs! Looking forward to meeting you and your lovely pet soon! 🐶😺❤️

We have just started using Christine to look after our dog. She has been excellent with working with us and Ronan absolutely loves going to her home. She brings him for walks and he gets along great with her dog. He comes home a tired puppy which is a bonus for he's a high energy dog. Thank you Christine for taking good care of our little love.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing home environment, tailoring it to provide the utmost comfort and care for your beloved pet. Ensuring a secure setting is fundamental to me. Your pet's safety is guaranteed with the presence of a fully fenced yard, complete with a securely locked gate, offering ample space for them to play freely under supervision. Moreover, I've implemented specific measures like a door gate at the entrance, carefully designed to prevent dogs from accidentally slipping out the front door. This additional security measure gives you peace of mind, knowing that your pet is safeguarded and won't wander off unexpectedly. As a former teacher, my experience and dedication to maintaining a structured, safe environment seamlessly extends to pet care. I apply my nurturing and disciplined approach to ensure that your pet feels at ease and is well cared for. My background in education allows me to create a structured routine and environment beneficial for your pet's mental and physical well-being. This structured approach aims to provide a comfortable, familiar, and stable atmosphere, mirroring the feeling of a home-away-from-home for your cherished pet. Your pet's safety, comfort, and a welcoming environment are my top priorities, and I'm committed to providing the best possible care in every aspect of their stay.

Information Christine E. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have any special needs or requirements? Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I am committed to making their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible! Whether your furry friend requires a specific diet, or medication, or has any behavioral considerations, I am here to accommodate. I am ready to go the extra mile to ensure that your dog feels at home during their stay with us. Simply let me know about any special instructions or preferences your dog may have. Whether it's a particular feeding schedule, a favorite toy, or any other special consideration, I am here to make their time with us as stress-free and enjoyable as possible!

A typical day

I believe that a day filled with joy and excitement is the key to a happy pup! Here's a glimpse into some of the fun-filled activities your furry friend can enjoy during their stay: Morning Walk Around Summerwood Pond: Start the day off right with a refreshing morning walk around the picturesque Summerwood Pond. The crisp air and serene surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for your dog's daily exercise routine, setting the tone for a fantastic day ahead. Afternoon Cuddles on the Couch: After expending some energy outdoors, it's time for cozy afternoon cuddles on the couch. Your furry friend will relish in the warmth and companionship, creating a special bond between us. Playtime in the Backyard: Our backyard is a dog's paradise! Whether it's chasing a ball, playing fetch, or simply exploring the nooks and crannies, your dog will have a blast engaging in various playful activities tailored to their preferences. Optional Evening Dog Park Visits: As the day winds down, we love to take our dog to the local dog park for some socialization and off-leash fun. It's a fantastic way for dogs to interact, burn off any remaining energy, and make new furry friends.
