Loving, Veterinary Nurse ❤️

Pet care experience

Hi! I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have worked with pets professionally my whole life! I have personally owned a horse, fish, lizards, turtles, cats, dogs, a bird, a rabbit and a guinea pig and am comfortable sitting for any of them! I have a special interest in animal behavior and have done several dog training classes and seminars. I also have spent several years fostering cats and caring for special needs pets! Why choose me? I take pride in providing high quality care for pets and developing lasting relationships with my clients. I have a calm demeanor and patience when it comes to dealing with anxious pets. You can rest easy knowing that your pet is in caring hands. I am fairly flexible in regards to pick up and drop off times on weekdays when discussed in advance. Boarding pets picked up after noon on the last day of their stay will be charged a day of daycare. No pickup/drop off on holidays. I look forward to meeting your fur-family.

She took really good care of my cats. They did very well and were well taken care of. I also got visual updates on how they were doing through texts

We love having Christine take care of our two cats! We have booked with her multiple times and have been 100% satisfied with her care and expertise with pets.

My dogs had an amazing time while we were away, I don’t think they had time to miss us because they were busy playing with Christine’s dogs. Very content with their stay.

Information Christine K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any quirks or triggers. I care for all breeds, but especially love the squishy faces! Please reach out with any special requests or medical needs! I love cats too!

A typical day

I enjoy an active lifestyle and take dogs to the dog park daily year round (if appropriate) or we take regular walks with boarders and daycare pups. We play ball, work on obedience and play games that keep pups mentally stimulated. We also enjoy cuddling, butt scratches, and watching movies at night.
