At the moment my schedule is wide open until 7/23, possibly longer. Will update calendar as I go. As I prefer spending my time with animals as opposed to people, I’m hoping to book as many fur babies as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your pets in your home as if they were my own. If you crate your dogs, I will crate them. Not allowed on the couch? I won’t let them on the couch. You tell me their schedule/routine, any special needs/care, likes & dislikes, etc. And I’ll go above & beyond to make sure they don’t even miss you. 😊

Information Christine S. would like to know about your pet

I will need to know everything I should know. Likes, fears, special needs, any “commands” that you use. One of my dogs was a lab/pit mix & hated animals. She would try to attack anything from a mouse to a horse, so I knew to avoid other animals. No fear of ANYTHING. The other, shepherd/husky, was afraid of his own shadow, didn’t like his paws being wet…. Everything you can tell me about your pet will enable me to give them the best care possible.

A typical day

Obviously whatever their owner tells me their pet enjoys. For example, if a dog enjoys car rides, off we go! Walks, parks, water….I’m sure I will enjoy that as much as them if not more. Same with cats….whatever they enjoy.

My dream is to own 2 cats & 3 dogs

Pet care experience

I am a mature, responsible woman that will care for your fur babies as if they were my own. My last 2 dogs passed at 14 & 15 years old. I miss them dearly. I’m currently living where dogs are not allowed. Therefore I have one cat. If I was allowed to have more than one I would. Your fur babies can expect lots of love, playing, pets, snuggling, and if allowed, they can sleep by my side as mine did…and still do. 😻🦮🐕‍🦺

Christine was great with our dog. She made sure to follow all of our instructions and attended a meet n great to meet us and our dog. She was always communicative and sent updates/pictures while we were away. We loved having her stay with our dog!

Christine took wonderful care of my 3 cats and she kept me informed about their daily activities. These were drop-in visits to my home for 16 days while I was on vacation. Would definitely use her again.

Christine was an excellent dog watcher, she made sure my puppies got what they needed and was also very conscious of keeping my house clean, I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!!
