Pet care experience

Experienced Responsible Passionate

My Mum is a veterinarian, so I was likely born with a natural love for animals. I have always had pets, and believe pets are family. I had a Jack Russell and Border Collie growing up. Currently I have a one year old French Bullbog and a ten year old parrot. I had two incredibly special cats my Mum and I rescued during my teen years. My dog shares the house, and toys with Jemma, a jack russell I encouraged my Mum to adopt 8 years ago. I am comfortable and confident around dogs of all sizes. Years of experience helped me learn and understand dog behaviours. I am knowledgeable, a quick thinker and creative problem solver- your pets are safe with me! I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I call my Mum an animal whisperer, and I’ve learned from her. My love for animals is in my blood and something that I feel defines who I am. Nothing is quite as contagious and guaranteed to make you smile, than seeing a happy dog, with a toy, on a walk, on the couch or greeting you at the door.

I have a large private fenced backyard my dogs enjoy. Lots of wildlife to watch. A few large trees in the yard provide shade in summer.

Christine was fantastic! She came over and let our dog Hudson out for us while we were away for the day. Definitely will using her services again!

I honestly can’t recommend Christine enough. She was very professional, sent lots of updates, and made me feel incredibly secure in the booking process. When my dog wasn’t feeling well, she treated him like he was her own. You can tell she has a real love and joy for dogs.

Highly recommend Chrissy for your pet care needs. We trust our pets are in the best hands because she really treats them like they are her own. She is our first choice for pet-sitting if we’re away. She has done dog-walking with our very energetic boxer numerous times and recently helped us leash train and socialize our Pomeranian puppy. Both our dogs and cats seem to love her. She is reliable, friendly, flexible and accommodating. She is just a natural with animals, comfortable and obviously experienced. We will continue to rely on Chrissy for all of pet care needs and we encourage others to do the same!

I have known Christine for over 15 years. She was always my go to dog walker, she was always reliable and trustworthy which is something I value when entrusting someone with my dogs. They would be so excited when they heard her knocking at the door knowing that it was time for their walk with Christine. Unfortunately, she has moved out of my province and she is deeply missed by both me and my dogs, but I hope that someone else s fur babies can take advantage of this amazing opportunity to find a new friend that can walk with them. Christine has not only had experience with other people s dogs but also has owned dogs her entire life. I cannot say enough positive things about Christine from her knowledge, her flexibility to accommodate my changing schedule to her love of all pets especially dogs!

I have know Chrissy for over 20 years -thru parrots/dogs/cats/pocket pets .Capable, strong & dependable. Pets have a real affinity for her; suspect they feel her 6th sense and love for them .Her world is not complete without animals . And her dogs& cats are all settling longevity records over 15years and counting -guess they don’t want to leave her either still playing and bouncing like pups/kittens. An “old soul “ not caught up in all the hype we see these days in some people. Truly someone you can trust for your fur babies Debbie B

My dogs are both very friendly and they do not mind having new friends to play with, walk with, or sometimes totally ignore. My bulldog tends to be pretty hyper at first
