Expert Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I'm the person at the party making friends with the dogs and cats. Dog lover with some extra love in my heart to care for your dog. I like walking, love running, and adore playing fetch (sometimes I'll even let the dogs play too)! By the end of the year I will be completing a half marathon, so I have a lot of dog walks/runs to do in preparation. I also have a few puppy's worth of experience in puppy training! I have an energetic 3 year old Labradoodle, Bear, that loves new playmates (in home only) and two cats that enjoy dog friends as well. There's no need to stress about your pet at home while you're away or at work, please allow me to play with your dog(s) :)
Reviews
CHRISTINE IS WONDERFUL; I highly recommend her (plus she is ex-military and a lot of my family was in the air force so I liked hearing that). We arranged to have 1 drop in visit per day for 2 months, Monday-Friday. She let us pick the pay schedule (weekly is easier for us) which I really appreciated and offered us a slight discount since we are within walking distance from her house (which we really appreciated!). During the meet and greet, she explained to us how everything works, went over our work schedules to set up a time frame for arrival, asked about any special needs the dogs may have, explained how payment works, etc. She is younger, active (which is great for our hyper puppy), laid back and easy to get along with. Both my dogs seem to really like her, I always see tails wagging when she walks in the door (I have a webcam set up to watch the puppy during the day)! My older dog is really particular about people being in the house when I am not home and he has taken to her very well. In general, she takes them outside and lets them play and if its raining, she will play with them inside. Being that I have a puppy, she has not gotten over the "excited tinkles" yet and Christine is always really respectful and cleans it up. She also takes off her shoes before coming into the house, which I didn't ask her to do but I like because we just got new carpet, haha. She also talks to our pups constantly while she is there, which I love because it is what I do! After her visit, she sends me a text update and explains what happened during the visit. Overall, I would have to give her an A+++, I am so happy I chose her. :)
I've known Chrissy for a long time. She's always had dogs and treats others' pets as a member of her own family. She has trained her pets to follow basic commands but also commends them with lots of love and care. She loves to be active and her pets are always just as active as she is! She will take great care of your pets!
