I’m retired and have too much time on my hands. I am looking forward to spoiling your dog. In the past I’ve had up to 6 grandpuppies! My grown children have many and I’ve loved them all some much. My last two babies crossed over the rainbow bridge at 13 years and 15 years. I miss having a dog in my home to share my couch with.

Pet care experience

My home is clean and very pet friendly. I am a retired dog lover. My experience is extensive. I have experience with all types of dogs. I no longer have a dog in my home at this time and miss having a cuddle buddy and look forward to a walking pal. If you need a grandmother for your pet to love I’m your lady!

We are so very grateful for the outstanding care and love Christine gives to our two yorkie fur babies, Daisy and Snickers. She is very punctual and goes above and beyond, taking care of our pups and home. she always goes out of her way to keep our home clean, our pups fed and walked, gets our mail and takes our garbage out too, gives water to our plants, and has even done some of our laundry without us asking, we could not ask for a better pup sitter, and her husband Paul is great with them as well, We also get updated photos sent to us each day and she keeps us updated on any health concerns. Thank You, Christine! Sincerely, Beth and Ron
