Exploring Nature & the City w/ Dogs

Pet care experience

I've always wanted a dog of my own, but due to city living and renter requirements, it wasn't in the cards. That's when I discovered dog walking. Not only do I get amazing exercise with the pups, but I get to connect and have a relationship with ALL kinds of pets. I'm like the dog-aunt who loves to play catch and give pets treats and then send them back to their loving homes afterward; everyone wins! I work from home and am always up for fun ways to add additional income and fur baby love. I started dog walking when I was 20 as I was putting myself through school at the time. I never forgot about it since then, my husband and I are often the people our friends call first to dog or house sit. My husband had many dogs growing up but his time in the army made pet ownership more difficult. Now we are saving to buy our dream house. He rides bikes and I watch cats and dogs. I live in a tree lined neighborhood with access to many parks. Our back yard is fenced but we prefer hikes over getting left outside. Dog-friendly cafes are also nearby but sometimes your pet's home is best as that's where they are most comfortable. Either way, comfort and care can be provided!

Thank you Christine! My girl Chaska is blind and elderly (she's 14!), so she needs a little extra TLC. Christine gave me peace of mind from the first time she came over to meet us. Chaska was happy as a clam when I got home from my trip, so I know she was well cared for. Christine was super attentive, sending photos and updates each day, and she always responded to my communications immediately. I use holistic care for my dog, and Christine was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about holistic pet care, which is a major bonus. I will certainly be using her services again in the future.

Our dogs love it when Christine comes to stay! She is one of their favorite humans! We have had her come stay for several weekends and even a week-long trip once. She is reliable and responsible and makes it possible for us to visit out of town family and keep up with business travel commitments, while knowing our Labs are being well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others who need a dog walker/sitter.

Christine is an outstanding pet protector and caregiver. She is a natural at putting dogs at ease (my dog can definitely be erratic), but she is great in the care of Christine. I give her my strongest possible recommendation and my full trust in her caretaking abilities for my pet.

Christine was an amazing temporary dog and cat mom to my fur babies! She responded quickly and helped me out in a pinch. She also left me a note when I left and I can tell they received a lot of love while I was gone. I will definitely be using her again, and I know my pup will be excited to see her!
