Pet Sitting My House or Yours!
Pet care experience
As of 2/14/24, both my husband and I are certified in pet first aid and CPR. We are dog lovers and have had dogs all of our lives. As a family we have also worked in dog rescue for quite a while, so have really dealt with a lot of personalities in our home. We love our dogs like they are our kids. We'd love to provide the same love to your pets while you are away. Leaving your pets can be hard, but it doesn't have to be. We are happy to come to your house so they don't have to be disrupted. We would be happy to come and let them out a few times a day or stay overnight with them. Your fur kids will be treated like our own. Or they are welcome in our home where we treat them like one of ours. I have 2 kids that are 18 and 21 (college) at my house so not really kids anymore and my husband at home. The kids help out when they are home on breaks. My husband and I provide the care both in our house or yours. We have 1 lab at home who does well with other dogs. We will typically only take 1-2 dogs into our house at a time. We work as a team to provide care for the dogs in our home. We love to share the experience as a family. I do work full-time outside of the home, but my husband works from home if he is not traveling for business. I have a fenced yard and a dog who welcomes visitors. We play with the dogs outside and they love to run and play in the yard. Since the dogs get a lot of exercise outside, we do not walk the dogs while in our care unless you want to pay additional for walks. If you have us stay at your house, our rate includes an overnight and for us to come back once during the day to let the dog out during the day. We will usually get to your house after dinner, will leave in the morning and then come back mid-day to let the dog out and then return again after dinner. My husband tends to be the one one who does overnights. Our overnights are NOT 24/7, so if you are looking for someone to always be with your pet, we can not provide that. Please note that we do not do doggy daycare at our house. We also will not stay in houses all day due to work and other commitments. Our dog sitting is an overnight service (see above) and not meant to sit in homes during the day. Please note that weekday dog walking and drop-ins during the day may not work for us depending on work schedules. We do our best to accommodate, but it can't always happen. We love spending time with all of the furry kids we've had the chance to meet. Whether it's our house or yours, they are loved. Give me a call or send me a message and let's chat about how we can help you! We'd love to get to know you and your fur babies!
Reviews
Christine continues to be our favorite dog sitter! She responds promptly and gives us updates while we are gone. This was an extra long time for us to be gone and we were never worried our dog wouldn't receive the best care.
Our cats love when Christine visits! Highly recommended!
Christine treats Brody like a member of her family.
Christine took great care of my pups while I was gone!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and a dog to keep our guests company. We treat guests like our own dogs, so they have the run of the house. Younger dogs or dogs that can't be left unattended yet, will go in crates when we leave the house or overnight if needed.
Home
Information Christine M. would like to know about your pet
Before bringing a dog to my home or going to theirs, I need to know how they are with other dogs. I would like to be aware of any behavior issues or any medical issues that need to be taken care of as well. If the dog has had an aggression issues I would want to know that as well.
A typical day
We have a fenced yard for the dogs to run and play and during nice weather they are out there a lot! We play ball in the back yard and chase around with toys.

I am working from home some days and my husband works from home so letting the dogs out and playing with them during work breaks is easy.
