Safety, trust & environment

Respect is the number one rule. I have trained on how to read dog and cat body language. I am calm and patient with animals. I also know to be extra safe and careful at all times and to expect the unexpected.

Information Christine F. would like to know about your pet

- medical and dietary requirements - any reactivity to people or other animals (I can handle this- just need to know ahead of time 😊) - are you doing any particular training with the animal that I can reinforce?

A typical day

I plan the activities around the pet, of course. I will jog with a dog, or I will sit and spend quiet time petting and caring for cats/ dogs. I am able to do many things. I have experience working with small and large animals. I’ve handled chameleons and mastiffs alike. I am a confident dog walker because I find that my attitude rubs off on the pets.

Pets

Pet parent and rescue volunteer

Pet care experience

I have 27 years of cat, dog, and horse ownership experience. I’m a teacher of 19 years who wants to spend the summer caring for pets. I was an animal rescue volunteer for five years where I visited cats and trained puppies and adult dogs alike. I’m a calm, patient person by nature, so my specialty was shy and particularly stubborn pups/ cats.

Christine took great care of our dog! She gave him exactly the attention that he needed and sent us pictures and notes each visit.
