Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Christy - EMT some days, dog enthusiast every day ending in Y. Since I only work a couple days a week I have lots of daytime available to walk and care for your dog(s). CPR certified. Best friend in vet school is only a phone-a-friend away. But in all seriousness, I’ve volunteered to walk lots of friends’ dogs of varying ages, breeds and personalities. Level-headed in emergencies or less than ideal situations. Respectful and patient when entering the home. Up for the challenge of getting any wiggly midday energy out of your pup. Also training for a half marathon, so I’d be happy to take them on a run at owner’s request. Love people, pups, walks and being outside - no wonder my friends describe me as a golden retriever :).
Reviews
Having Christy watch our dog for 3 days was such a great experience. She was very communicative and met with us before the stay to get to know our dog and her needs. She was patient when our dog was being a bit stubborn and wasn't feeling well, and she took her for nice long walks. We got lots of updates and pictures. Christy was the best! Would ask her to pet sit again for sure.
Christy was very communicative and responsive in setting up the walk and confirming details before the walk. She walked our one year rescue dog Bud and it went well. Plan to book with Christy again!
Christy is a wonderful dog walker/caregiver. She has a true passion for all dogs and strives to provide the best care. She’s active and will ensure your dog has a great time! I have a 2-year old goldendoodle who is very high energy and Christy never disappoints when walking/playing with her! Very responsible and loves all dogs like her own. I highly recommend!
I've known Christy for several years now and my pup Lana (20 lbs Cavalier) completely loves her. Having her come over for a quick walk is great for all, and a few times she has spent longer days with Lana when I wasn't able to. Christy loves all pups and I can't give a high enough recommendation for her.

Information Christy J. would like to know about your pet
I like to get a sense of the dog’s favorite treats/toys as well as energy level so I can tailor the walk to them.
A typical day
I definitely do my research on the dog’s home area to vary the route & explore green spaces while staying safe. My goal is to get the wigglies out so your pup is content and ready for a good snooze afterwards.
