PASSIONATE FOR DOGS!!

Pet care experience

I have a huge passion for dogs and a very natural ability to care for, exercise, train and interact with dogs. I go over and above the average dog walker/pet sitter to provide exceptional service and care. My references will attest to my dedication and abilities. I am a single person and home owner with a fenced in yard. I have provided dog walking, pet sitting and over night dog care to family, friends and neighbors for over 15 years. I currently have one rescue dog, Myah (husky/lab mix) and two rescue cats. I am an avid hiker and lover of the great outdoors! I can provide your dog with hiking, walking or any other exercise that they prefer! I am also great with belly rubs and snuggling! :)

Christine took such great care of Daisy and really treated her like one of her own! We loved the pictures and updates that she shared with us too. Daisy was one tired, but happy puppy when we picked her up!

Christine is just excellent. She really cares about my dog and is very experienced and intuitive about Izzy's needs. She is very professional and asks all questions she needs to know in order to take very good care of my dog. She is personable, caring, and desires to be the best she can be. She communicated with me throughout the day and sent pics of Izzy! I loved that. She's the best!

Christine is an excellent dog walker and extremely professional. She pays extra attention to the individual needs of your pet and provided feed back from each visit. She is definitely a top-notch care taker and will definitely meet the needs of your dog.

Chris is a conscientious person. She has on numerous accounts watched our dog Sydney and has done very well . I have seen Chris with other dogs and I believe she can be trusted . She is patient and can take time to understand personalities that many dogs have and be able to be flexible working with them

Information Christine S. would like to know about your pet

I would just like to learn their "preferences" and routines. I have a 55 lb husky/lab rescue dog (female) - so I am a little biased to the working breeds - but I LOVE ALL dogs in all shapes and sizes. I adapt my approach and specific services based on the dog's personality and preferences. My approach is very personal and specific to each individual dog.

A typical day

I am an avid hiker and live 12 mi from Afton State Park. I could take your dog on hikes on the hilly and woodsy trails - or walks on the neighborhood paths and sidewalks. I can provide the specific types of activities that each individual dog enjoys - walks, hikes, fetch, hide/seek, snuggles, belly rubs, etc. I know that each dog has their own personality and preferences!
