Highlights
Pet care experience
WE LOVE MAKING NEW FRIENDS!!!
After leaving the corporate world and starting my own small business many years ago- I found I had the time to watch and care for others furry friends and babies. A few years later- I welcomed my own fur baby- Winnie. She is my 3 year old female Maltese that loves to make new friends. She is sassy and full of energy. I have cared for all ages of dogs throughout the years and kept them on their at home routine per mom & dad's instructions-while having fun. I provide loving care and comfort while mom & dad are away and will send pictures and videos daily. Feeding, potty, walking, brushing, playing in my safe and fully fenced in backyard, medications administered (if needed) and most importantly helping make your baby feel loved and secure. I do require a kennel (you provide) for the safety of all for sleeping and rest time. I find most dogs find extreme comfort in a place they can call their own while away from home. I know how it feels to leave my Winnie Girl- the feeling of knowing my baby is in a safe and loving environment is so important to me and makes my heart feel good. I promise to make you (and them) feel the same. We can't wait to meet you! References by request. PS- I can take more than one dog at a time.

Ratings and reviews
Christine is absolutely wonderful. She is very dedicated to her role as a dog caretaker. I was a bit concerned if my dog was going to be okay with all the other dogs, but Christine calmed her down, and my pup had a great time and made new friends. Christine house and yard are immaculate and dog friendly. She continually watches the dogs to assure everyt one of the pups is getting along and assuring no problems.
Christine takes excellent care of my dogs, sends updates and pictures, and is very good with communication.
Christine was wonderful, we had a brief booking with her during our trip to Seattle. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed her time and made new friends. She ensured our comfort by providing regular updates and photographs. We highly recommend her services and plan to return.
Christine was very thoughtful of my shy and aging pup. She sent pictures and information about his wellbeing. If I need care for him again, I’ll definitely see if she is available.
Christine was great! She was so kind and positive about taking care of the girls. She made sure they felt right at home and took extra care with them. I really appreciated the pupdates and cute photos while I was away.
Christine was truly wonderful! So patient and helpful in caring for my 8yr old french bulldog during her stay, providing frequent updates and photos. This was our first time working with Christine and will absolutely be using again. Thank you again!!

Schedule
I own a small business with extremely flexible hours. I am fully transparent and honest in my communication with you. When/If I need to be away- it is only for a few hours at most. I can assure you that your babies while in my care are in a secure and in a safe environment. I try my best to work with drop off and pick up times that work for everyone involved and can extend days if needed.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My general rule with watching and caring for others fur babies is to follow your direction as close as possible, as I understand pets can feel insecure, lonely, sometimes sad when left in an unfamiliar place. I do my best to create an environment where they feel included, loved, safe and will communicate with you on suggestions for soothing your fur baby while you are away.
Pets
A typical day
I have been known to set up a pool in the back yard in the summer/warm months and throw the ball, play chase on all other days of the year. Sometimes we do enrichment games and I always have fun treats to share.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsSpayed and neutered dogs onlyNo females in heatCrate-trained dogs onlyChristine can host up to 10 pets per night
- When initial contact is made- I always offer a 'meet and greet' so everyone feels comfortable. Parents can ask questions, fur friends can come visit and I can get important information to be sure to take care of your baby efficiently. I am flexible with whatever is necessary.
