Pet care experience
I have had dogs and horses in my life for as long as I can remember. Hunting dog, ranch dogs, pets and rescues. I currently have have 6 dogs and 3 horses. Along with the boarding and adventuring I offer equine services, and small farm sitting. House plants, outside flower and garden care. I can operate ATV UTV and small farm tractors, I have been working with a very experienced dog trainer for over 3 years, I have learned great dog management skills and help with training class occasionally. I have also done some dog training for clients. I have excellent local references, upon request. I am honest reliable and I would love to sit/board for you. I live on 120 acres, with no neighbors in the Kootenai NF. I have multiple dog areas in my home and on the property. At no time will your pup be unsupervised. I am very active with my dogs, I am currently am training with Fae and Chaos and they require a lot of outside time and exercise. Our adventures include hiking paddle boarding, lots of swimming time at the lakes, horseback riding and ATV runs. In the winter activities depend on weather, snowshoeing and trail-joring. I would love to have your dogs come joins us for some pack theraphy fresh air and exercise. My dogs are family and yours will be to. Play dates are most welcome. Walks potty breaks. I am happy to watch them in my home or yours. Let me what your needs are and I will do my best to accommodate them. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members.
Reviews
Christine took excellence care of our two dogs (one 5years old and the other a 4 month old puppy). I was nervous because our former dog sitter completely flaked on us just before we were to leave to visit family over the holiday. Christine immediately replied to our inquiry and promptly came to our home to meet us and our dogs. Christine’s professional manner and her obvious love of dogs made us feel comfortable boarding our pups with her. The dogs stayed in her home, and she sent us several photos and texts about their activities every day, which assured us that all was well.
Christine took excellent care of our three dogs during the weekend of our wedding. One of our dogs is older and needs pills, and one has some behavioral issues— she is skilled at managing both, and really knows dogs overall. It was very reassuring to know they were in capable hands. We came home to relaxed dogs and a tidy house. Highly recommend!
Christine took great care of my dogs!!
Christine was a wonderful sitter and Lily came back happier than ever after playing with Christine's other dogs all weekend! She sent loads of pictures and gave continual updates. I would highly recommend Christine!

I have a large fenced area for free play with a couple of my pups. . This area also has some agility equipment that they can learn to use. Rooms and areas of my home can also be blocked off to keep your dog separate if you prefer. I am currently adding inside kennels for separation needs, older dogs. Though my dogs are allowed on ALL my f6urniture and basically have the run of the house during the day, I will follow your rules while they are here. All of my dogs crate at night. In your home I will follow all instructions and treat animals and home with the utmost care. My clients say they can't even tell I was there. I also offer vet tech service for horses, bandage changes, hand walks, injections, medications, etc,. Light exercise can also be arranged Elderly dogs, medications, injections, nail trims, baths and grooming also available (extra fee)
