Pet care experience

Happy pet, happy home :-)

I have babysat and fostered many dogs and cats in my home over the years. I socialized some of the cat fosters (feral) so that they can find their forever home. For several years, I volunteered for a non-profit greyhound rescue, from where I adopted two beautiful greyhounds 🥰 I also volunteered at the SPCA Annex where I bathed, walked and socialized dogs (mostly seized due to hoarding or other unsanitary situations). I've had pets since I was a little girl and have always enjoyed being in their company.

Safety, trust & environment

When walking your dog, I will always keep them on a leash unless he is allowed to run free in a dog park. This will be determined with you beforehand of course. Same thing goes for treats/food as I respect whatever specific diet your dog is on, if any. I will apply same for drop-ins when it comes to food/treats and will respect whatever your environment and "house rules" are, if any, with your pet(s). If it is your cat that requires a drop-in visit, I will make sure to spend time playing and interacting with him/her :-) I will make sure to keep you updated, send you pictures when I walk your dog or do a drop-in visit :-) Your dog's/cat's well being and safety is #1 priority for me! And if your dog or cat enjoys cuddles and kisses, they will not go without, I can assure you of that ;-)

Dog Walking • May 31, 2026

Christine a promené ma chienne Freya et l’expérience a été excellente du début à la fin. C’est une personne chaleureuse, attentionnée et très à l’écoute. On sent tout de suite son amour sincère pour les animaux. Elle a pris le temps de faire connaissance avec Freya et nous a mis en confiance dès les premiers échanges. J’ai eu l’esprit tranquille en sachant Freya entre de bonnes mains. C’est rare de trouver quelqu’un d’aussi humain et bienveillant. Merci encore Christine pour les balades avec Freya. Je n’hésiterai pas à faire appel à toi de nouveau! Je vous vous recommande fortement Christine!! 🐾💕

J’ai confié Laïka à Christine pendant mon absence et je suis vraiment reconnaissante des soins qu’elle lui a apportés. Elle venait deux fois par jour, m’envoyait chaque jour des vidéos des promenades ainsi qu’un journal de bord très complet et rassurant. J’ai tout de suite senti que Laïka était entre de très bonnes mains. Christine est attentionnée, fiable et prend réellement le temps de bien s’occuper des animaux. Sa communication était impeccable du début à la fin et cela m’a permis de partir l’esprit tranquille. Je la recommande sans hésitation et je referai appel à elle avec grand plaisir 🐾❤️

On recommanderait Christine à n'importe qui. Elle a su gagner la confiance de notre chat timide dès la première visite et a très bien suivi les instruction relativement spécifiques reliées à sa santé. On a pu avoir la paix d'esprit tout au long de notre absence. Merci!

Christine is a great dog walker. My Marley and her got along just fine. I will definitely use her again.

It is important for me to know what level of exercise your dog can handle. I would also need to know if they have any (food or other) restrictions due to illness, age or other factors. Is your dog friendly with children, other animals? Or is it better to walk in less frequented areas? Anything you can tell me that you deem necessary to make this experience more enjoyable for your furry friend and I would be greatly appreciated.
