Christine is a dream sitter! So kind, so communicative, and so attentive to all doggy care details. Thank you again for taking such good care of your senior pup!

Cece has a great stay with Christine and Arnie. We received photo updates multiple times a day, they took her out for walks and were very accommodating. We’re glad to have found our go to sitters in the Pittsburgh area.

Christine was fantastic! She was diligent about sending photos of our Lily girl while we were away and provided excellent care for our senior girl.

Christie is the BEST! She is kind as can be, and that’s with everybody. With dogs, she treats them better than you would ever imagine. My boys jump for joy at sight of her! They get plenty of love while with her, and she makes sure she keeps them entertained at all times. They become a genuine part of her life when they’re in her care! I couldn’t recommend her more.

Chris did an outstanding job watching my dog, Luna. Luna is a 6 year old Bernedoodle. Chris walked her 2 times a day everyday. She also has a fenced in yard where Luna had plenty of space for play time. Chris provided multiple pictures and updates daily. She was easily able to understand and follow all of Lunas care instructions which did include some routine medications. Luna seemed to have such an awesome time I was afraid she would not want to come home ! 🤣 Chris did such an amazing job that she will be watching my girl again soon. I felt completely at ease and beyond grateful for the excellent care that Luna received.

Safety, trust & environment

Since I work from home, I give your pet attention throughout the day. My yard is fenced-in, and I enjoy walking at least twice daily. My husband and I both give affection and attention to any dogs staying with us.

Pets

A typical day

If your dog likes to cuddle, take long walks, play in the park, or play with toys, this is the perfect place to hang out. I've had senior dogs so I'm used to low-energy, cuddles and naps. I've also had highly energetic dogs stay with me and have fun with playtime and long walks. Whatever your pet likes to do, I'll enjoy our time together! Our dog loves to play and is very social and friendly with other dogs.
