Experienced Veterinary Technician

Pet care experience

I am a retired licensed Registered Veterinary Technician with twenty five years experience. I can administer any medications needed and also monitor blood glucose. I am glad to speak with your veterinary professional. I have competed in many dog sports including agility, obedience trials, dock diving and am an experienced dog trainer who really loves the dogs. Hiking, off lead play in a fenced environment, trips to the river and lake during summer months. Living in Monterey California is perfect for me because it is such a dog friendly community. When I leave the house, your baby goes with me as long as the weather permits. Each day can be a new adventure. Geriatric dogs welcome, as well as dogs that have special needs or care.

Moose had such a wonderful time with Christine while we visited the aquarium and Point Lobos. After a long day of travel, we could tell he was pretty worn out, so we really appreciated Christine letting us know he was able to nap, it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he felt at ease in her home. She also made sure he was well fed and his tummy was happy, which we’re so grateful for. Thank you, Christine, for taking such great care of our boy! We will absolutely book with her again the next time we’re in the Monterey area.

Willy loved being with Christine; he was right at home. I hope Christine will be available to take care of him the nest time we go out of town. Appreciated greatly Christine's knowledge of care, food, toys and collars! Both I and Willy send warm wishes and look forward to seeing you soon! Norma (and Willy)
