Young Professional who Loves Dogs

Pet care experience

Hello :) I work an office job from 7am-5:30pm on weekdays and rent in Fort Myers with a commute to LaBelle. I really would love to get a dog of my own but I am not in the position to do so at the moment, so I'm excited to meet your furry friend(s) and help you help them with walks, food, snuggles, and maintaining any relevant training. I have lived with dogs of all sizes and demeanors and would love to increase that portfolio. Unfortunately, I have not lived with any cats because I am allergic. Both of the dogs that I grew up with were rescues - one off of the streets of Puerto Rico (we assumed to be a cocker spaniel mix), and another from a rescue in Long Island (an American Staffordshire Terrier mix) - and were very special additions to my family. I like teaching old dogs new tricks and making sure your animal knows that it's loved.

This is the second time we have used Christine and she is awesome! Our little guy really enjoys being with her and she genuinely shows that she cares about him which is so comforting when we are away. She leaves the house cleaner than when she arrives, sends great pictures all throughout her stay, and really takes care of our home and our pup. We highly recommend her and Ollie will be excited to have her back again!

We trust Christine with our babies every time we go away and never have to worry. We have a trouble maker and a reactive dog, and she knows exactly how to handle them both. She gives them even more attention and care than we do when we’re home and she’s gone above and beyond for us and our dogs. The neighbors even comment on how great she is with them!

We are so grateful that Christine was available to watch our 2 dogs all day/evening while we were on a day trip! She was so communicative and shared tons of pictures and updates for us which helped us feel at ease. She was very responsive and helpful if we needed her to do something specific with them. She left the home clean too. We came back very late to happy and tired dogs and would 100% use her again!!

We always book Christine because she takes great care of our 3 dachshunds, including our senior dog who needs lots of attention.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide top-notch care for your animal. I will love them as my own for the time we share and will provide them with plenty of walks and cuddles. I prefer to keep your animal on its current routine to reduce any stress it might feel from being separated from its owner and having someone new in the house.

Information Christine S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any allergies, phobias, aversions, existing health conditions, or personality quirks. I'd also like to know the dog's usual daily routine and favorite treats.

A typical day

I'd love to show your dog the best time. I treat my time with your pet like your pet's own vacation. If you have a pool and your dog enjoys a swim, I will swim alongside them to keep them safe. If your dog enjoys fetch or frisbee or tug or war, I'll spend most of my day outside with them tiring them out. If your dog prefers to be a couch potato, I will join them for a movie marathon. My goal is to keep your animal comfortable, entertained, and happy while you are away.

I am currently working an office job from 7am-5:30pm on weekdays, meaning that I am mostly available on weekends. In my free time I like to volunteer at Animal Refuge Center in North Fort Myers by creating social media content and caring for their dogs and cats.
