Pet care experience
Hello! I have been around dogs my entire life! I was raised around schnauzers (mostly giant), but I truly love ALL dogs! I am proficient with nail trimming, bathing and brushing. I will be happy to provide transport as well- to the vet, the groomer, the dog park- wherever! I can't wait to meet your fur babies! Please don't hesitate to ask me questions or make requests. I'm here for you and your precious pups. I have my own dog, Toby. He's a special little guy; 13 pounds of min-pin/pug senior dog with puppy mentality and a huge dog's attitude! He's very protective (read: somewhat aggressive). He was a shelter dog and we could tell right away that he had a rough life before rescue. When we're not around, he's a people lover, but when we're home he's an us only lover! LOL. So I am unable to have your pet in my home- I'm truly sorry about that! * I also like cats & rodents (mice, hamsters, gerbils, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, etc.)!*
Reviews
Christine has been walking my dog, Buck, and she’s amazing! I receive photos and notes after every walk. And Buck loves her!
Christine is a wonderful caregiver and animal lover! She has cared for our dog as well as many foster dogs of all breeds, sizes and backgrounds. Her patience and kindness help her gain a dog's trust and her playful side keeps them running back for fun and games over and over.
I have known Christine for over ten years. I have found her to be a kind, compassionate and patient person. When no one else could cut our dog's toe nails, Christine had the task accomplished within minutes with no anxiety at all to our dog. She is very loving....not only with people, but with animals as well.
I’d trust my dog with Christine any day of the week. My dog is a total dork and Christine fits right in. A happy dog walker is always the best dog walker.
