Animal lover/former animal rescuer.

Pet care experience

I have been an employee of a local pet shop and animal rescue for almost a decade. Pet CPR and First Aid certified. From pigs to lizards! ❤️ I have personally fostered over 700 animals in my rescuing career and have experience with special needs animals, raising puppies, bottle feeding kittens, administering medication, potty training, and easing desperation anxiety. I treat all of the babies as if they are my own children. I also send you pictures and videos of your babies. Making sure my clients have peace of mind when they're away from their babies is super important to me.

Christy was great! Very accommodating and loved our puppy like it was hers. Plenty of videos and pics sent while we were away. Would highly recommend.

Christy was absolutely amazing! It was obvious that she genuinely loves to care for dogs, and this is not just a job for her. We will definitely be using her again in the future!

Christy did an amazing job taking care of our 7-week old puppy and his 11-year old big brother. She was professional, courteous, and respectful, and the pups loved her! We connected with Christy at the very last minute and she was very flexible and accommodating. We came home to a puppy that had learned to sit and sleep longer through the night! Christy was also great about sending fun updates which allowed to us to truly enjoy our trip. We would definitely recommend Christy and will be going to her for our dog sitting needs in the future!

Christy was wonderful with my dog, Roux. I got lots of daily pics and videos (which I love) and felt very assured my dog was happy and comfy with her during her stay. Will 10/10 use again very soon!

I have a fenced in yard at my home and have pets who have helped me foster 100s of animals for the rescue, so they are very used to other pets. I have experience with dogs, cats, pigs, monitor lizards, snakes, rats, and guinea pigs. The largest dog I've sat for was an Italian Mastiff and the smallest, a tea cup Chihuahua.

Information Christy F. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know if a dog is spayed/neutered, good with other dogs and/or cats, walks well on a leash, and the schedule of any meds they are in.

A typical day

I talk to the babies as if they are human. Don't be too surprised if I send you goofy videos of me singing songs or playing games with your pets. I can also offer walks during the day and, unless the parents don't allow this at home, the babies are allowed in the furniture and sleep in the bed with me. I've also worked as an assistant groomer and will have your baby bathed and smelling great when you pick them up.
