Animal lover looking to pet sit!

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a big dog, half black lab and half Rottweiler, and I remember counting the days til I was big enough to walk him myself. Caring for a dog is a special bond and I love getting to know the unique personality of each dog I meet. I don’t have any pets of my own right now but jump at any opportunity to take care of friends dogs when they are going out of town. It is a calming, fun experience every time and I would love to get the opportunity to pet sit for even more dogs.

Christine is loving, responsive, and responsible. She sent pics while we were away and was able to care for our elderly cat, giving her meds and love. Thanks, Christine!

Christine is an AMAZING pet caregiver. Things I loved about Christine spending a week taking care of my dog, Bradley: - Christine immediately made Bradley fall in love with her because she’s so chill and sweet with dogs - she sent lots of pictures and videos so I could see him thriving - she has tons of experience with dogs, so even though Bradley is prone to snap at other dogs she was good at keeping him away & preventing issues Overall I had no worries at all about leaving my dog with Christine for a week. I highly recommend her!!

Christine is wonderful. My sweet pup currently has a number of medical requirements including daily medication and needs a stroller for long walks. Christine took excellent care of Ellie and I can tell she really cares - and Ellie loves her! It’s not always easy to babysit a dog that can’t do the usual fun doggie things and Christine was really kind and loving in her willingness to meet Ellie exactly where she’s at. My home was also really clean when I got home which I very much appreciated. Will definitely be working with Christine again!

Safety, trust & environment

I am comfortable coming to your home to care for your dog with explicit instructions on what works best for them. You know your dog best and all I need is an explanation of what will make them feel most comfortable!

Information Christine L. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know their general energy levels and what activities they like to do. I would also like to know their comfort around other people and dogs.

A typical day

I’d be happy to take any dogs I’m watching to the dog park or parks around the Philadelphia area. I know many dogs have a lot of energy and I’m happy to run around and play with them for as long as they need.
