Highlights
Pet care experience
Where Every Tail Tells a Tale
I've been an animal lover my entire life and have spent hours volunteering at the TBDHS, along with pet sitting and walking my neighbour's dog! I have my own, high-energy dog (Ellie, husky-German shepherd mix) from Northern Critters in Need. Some activities that I do with my dog (and neighbour’s dogs) are hikes, bike rides, the park, and more. I'm used to large dogs pulling occasionally! I also have two cats (Trix and Roux), who are also rescues. Roux is the sweetest cat that flops when you pick her up (kind of like a ragdoll cat), and Trix will talk (meow) at you when she's ready for your attention. While volunteering at the TBDHS, I would do basic care (feeding, brushing, playtime, etc.) and take the dogs for walks and socialize with them until they found their forever homes!

Safety, trust & environment
Since having large and high-energy dogs, I am very used to an active lifestyle. When I take them on hikes, walks, and bike rides, I'm used to them pulling on the leash when they are overly excited. I can (usually) calm them down by patting their chest-area or continuing on our way if necessary.
Ratings and reviews
Christine took very good care of out two cats. Plants too. Would hire again.
Christine was available last min and really helped our family out to check in on our puppy when we were tied up with work and activities. She kept him company and brought him outside to play in the backyard. He looked very happy and wasn’t as worried when we got home later than usual. It gave us piece of mind to know he was being well cared for
trustworthy and reliable sitter, took great care of my cat while I was on vacation!
Took such good care of our cat! The update pictures were too cute. Made it easier to relax on vacation knowing she was in such good hands with Christine!
Christine was great! Helped us out last minute and I could tell my pup had a good day! It’s tough trusting someone with your puppy but Christine’s reviews and experience made it easier. Glad we hired her and will again in the future if needed!
Christine was very responsive and took great care of our kitties while we were away. I would definitely recommend her for your pet watching needs!

I love going for daily walks with my dogs or my neighbour's dogs! I'm available in the afternoon and evening primarily, but can make exceptions for morning and nighttime as well.
