Attentive caregiver with vet exp

Pet care experience

I've had pets my entire life to include cats, dogs, and birds. I am currently studying to become certified as a veterinary assistant. I have experience with giving medications, bathing for dogs, walking, play time, cuddle time, and feeding no matter the age of the pet. I’m an animal lover with lots of experience caring for them. I promise to make your pets feel like they're my family, too while still respecting their boundaries. I understand that some pets will need a bit more time to warm up to a stranger. I believe that all pets deserve the love, attention and affection in the world. I look forward to taking care of you and your pets needs. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Christine took fantastic care of my elderly cocker spaniel. I had no worries while I was out of town and I would definitely recommend her. I will definitely use her again.

Christine did a great job taking care of my dog and two cats again this weekend! My dog is very shy and also requires medication and he happily takes meds, treats and pets from her which is a big deal. Thanks again!

Christine did a great job with Houston. He was relaxed and happy after. Very good communication throughout the process, from booking to end of walk. Thanks Christine.

Safety, trust & environment

A secure leash and meet and greet is required for most pet parents unless I have already met you and your pets. During meet and greets I like to ask questions about your pets personalities as well as their potty habits to get a good feel before we head out into the real world on our own.

Information Christine M. would like to know about your pet

I would love to make sure that we have a meet and greet always before accepting new requests. I’ll make sure to ask about their potty habits, aggression or lack of aggression around other dogs and people, and the amount of exercise given to each of your pets so I can make sure that although you’re gone as little as possible changes for your pets comfort.

A typical day

I love to make sure that I customize my time with each pet depending on their level of exercise need, or energy. We mostly either play, walk or cuddle on the couch and watch tv.
