Pets are family to me.

Pet care experience

From my early youth asking to walk the neighbours dog, to putting myself through university working at a vet clinic, I have had the gift of dogs in my life. The first summer after my husband and I were married, we adopted a dog. Since then I have always had a dog in my life. I worked at a high end dog and cat boarding place for six years. Here I improved my ability to tailor the care offered to the pets needs. I am experienced with puppies, seniors, and dogs requiring medication.

Hello, It is my pleasure to recommend Christine G as a most responsible and loving pet care giver. I have known Christine for 20+ years as a neighbour, very good friend... and lover of pets... especially dogs! Since I have known Christine and her lovely family, husband Mike and 3 sons, at least one dog has also been a family member. Christine has supported friends and neighbours with dog sitting, even taking them into her own home for short periods of time. For a number of years Christine had lovingly cared for our senior aged cat whom we lost this past November. Elly wasn't very endearing to guests in our home, nor did she approve of us travelling :), but Christine was always willing to care for Elly when we were away. She visited at least once a day, but most days twice trying to persuade Elly to socialize a little. Christine contacted me daily with updates on Elly's eating and toileting habits giving us peace of mind that everything was fine and I knew she was well cared for. Christine is a true lover of dogs and she is confident and comfortable in managing behaviours of different breeds. Having worked in a petting boarding organization for many years has provided her with this strong skill set. I feel Christine will be an asset to your organization and to families as a loving and responsible pet caregiver.

Christine is absolutely fabulous when taking care of our dogs. She deeply cares about our pets and their needs. Christine ensures that they get the walks and playtime that they require as well as the affection, hugs and treats that they love. You can tell right away that Christine loves dogs. I would highly recommend her pet sitting to anyone.

My time is your pet's time. I enjoy taking them for their walks if that's what they like. Time spent sniffing, playing games, and with toys are all important part of the day. As well as some cuddle time and belly rubs.
