A true dog whisperer! Christine is super trustworthy and professional! She always takes excellent care of our pooch Milo who is our everything. Definitely the BEST dog sitter EVER!!!

I feel so fortunate to have found Christine. The moment you meet her, she will put you at ease about caring for your dog. She instantly connected with our labradoodle Pretzel (who is my everything) by showing patience, care and interest. Being apart from your pup can be hard but she sent me updates, photos and stories to keep me regularly informed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for your pup.

Incredibly happy with Ranger's stay with Christine. We can always tell when he has had a good time. Firstly, he does not want to leave! And secondly he comes home and sleeps the whole next day showing us he's been engaged in lots of activity. Christine's house is well setup to host animals with plenty of fenced in space for them to run around. Christine also took Ranger to the lake a couple of times which he really enjoyed. Lastly we received lots pf photographs of Ranger engaged in various activities. That made the entire family happy.

I have met Christine last year at the dog park in Auburn. We and the dogs bonded right away! During our conversation I mentioned not being able to visit my sister in Colorado because she has a bad dog allergy and I don’t have family or friends around who I would trust to watch my (rescue) dog. She told me that she is a dog sitter and invited me over to her house to “check out her set up”. I was still a little nervous but once I saw what she has to offer and more so her extremely calm and relaxed way of dealing with my high energy dog I felt comfortable enough to leave my beloved baby with her. He stayed with her for two weeks! Bear is sometimes difficult to deal with and I was super nervous about leaving him because he has never stayed with anyone else since I got him but Christina seemed so trustworthy and even offered not to take any other dogs during his first week so she could give him all the attention! I was blown away by that offer and by the rate she gave me! I feel like for what she has to offer she could charge 3x as much (easy). Therefore I know how much she really cares about dogs and that she doesn’t watch them because she wants your money! She took Bear swimming, hiking, running and what not. She kept me updated and sent the cutest pictures! Christines way of dealing with dogs (and humans) is amazing! She gave me so many good tips and I feel like I learn something new every time I am over there! Since his first visit Bear stayed with her many more times for day care. Ziggy and Bear are best friends! They play all day if you let them. Bear starts to get excited a mile away from their home! And quite honestly… I would never use a website like Rover (never have) because I don’t want to drop my dog off at some strangers house where the “sitter” puts him in a yard all day with the 10 other dogs he is “taking care of”. But I can guarantee everyone who uses this website and is in search of THE BEST possible spot/sitter that Christine is THE ONE! Her set up, her care, her energy, her dog….everything is simple AMAZING!
