Pet care experience
A loyal and dependable fur mama
Hi there! My name is Christine and I am the proud mama of not only two humans, but three cats and a high energy chihuahua terrier mix! I have always been devoted to my animals, and look at them as my first babies. I'm currently a stay at home mother, and I am looking to fill my time doing something I am passionate about that works well with having little ones. When it comes to experience, I been doing this for about five years now, and I have repeat clients I adore. I have worked with a variety of breeds and ages from 10 to 100 lb pups and lots of cats as well! I have been a proud cat owner for almost a decade, and seven years with my dog. My husband and I took in our dog from a rescue when she was only 7 months old and went through the process of potty training her as she had some anxiety adjusting to a new home. I love all dogs, regardless of their size or breed, and cats as well. I am also open to working other pets as well- rodents, reptiles, etc. I know the importance of finding the right caregiver for your precious fur babies, and I believe I would make a great fit, whether that be your regular dog walker or if you just need someone to check in on them over a weekend you're away. Being a stay at home mother gives me the flexibility to work around your schedule and your animal's needs. I only work around my husband’s schedule, he works remotely. Along with this flexible availability, on visitors I will take lots of photos of your fur baby so you can rest assured they are being loved and cared for. I know it can be scary finding someone to entrust with your pets, so I can certainly furnish references upon request. I was a funeral director before doing this, so I am a highly compassionate and empathetic person who truly cares. I have great attention to detail, and will follow all directions you give me. I love my clients and try my hardest to do the best I can for them and their fur babies. On top of this, I have experience giving medications to both kitties and pups (insulin injections included), so I have no problem with administering any medication needed. I am looking forward to hearing from you, and working with your precious pet!

Safety, trust & environment
In order to build trust, I prefer to have meet and greets so I can meet your fur baby and have them used to me before you entrust me with their care.
Ratings and reviews
Christine did a great job with Violet! Timely and sent lots of updated and pictures which I really appreciate.
10/10! I would reccomend Christine to anyone! She was so super communicative, personable and reassuring. She took care of my 3 fur kids exactly like I would. My youngest hides and doesn't come around new people for awhile but in one weekend he made friends with Christine, even letting her pet him! (Which is a big deal for him) My oldest is the reason why we needed Chrstine's care to begin with. She's 16 and has diabetes, kidney disease, glaucoma, arthritis and most recently diagnosed with congested heart failure. The CHF happened via emergency like 2 weeks prior so it was very fresh still and meant new meds (a lot, 3 for the CHF and 2 anti nauseas) and supplements (2) she has to take. I was SO anxious to leave her for the weekend in fear of another episode or worse, but Christine was able to get her oral pills & liquid oral meds in her every time. And she able to give her insulin too. Christine made sure I was very informed, sending pics of everyone and a thorough write up of how everyone is, who got what and how meds and eating went which reassured me tremendously. I was able to enjoy a weekend away that I didn't think I would be able to!!! Will definitely be booking Christine for future sittings! ❤️✨️👏😬
Christine was just wonderful in caring for our two cats for a week! She took such good care of them and the communication from her was top notch! Great updates with many cute pictures. It was clear that our cats enjoyed her visits; even our shyer cat was interacting and getting lots of pets! Highly recommend Christine!
Christine is the best!
Takes great care of our cats and is very responsive! We love booking her whenever we are out of town. Great to know our kitties are in great hands!
Christine is the best!
