Pet care experience

Our family of 5 consists of my two girls (ages 12 + 15), my husband, me and our gigantic cat, Mr. Kittimers, which makes up our fun and loving household. Mr. Kittimers is an indoor / outdoor cat who uses his own special entrance not available to others. He hangs out with the cat-friendly pooches and steers clear of all the others which he can determine with lightning speed. So if you're worried about your dog's natural prey instinct, know that it doesn't worry us. We have a large fenced in yard and are also approved fosters for PugNation Rescue of Los Angeles. Our pets have always slept with us or wherever they've chosen. We'd treat yours as our own. I'm a stay-at-home Mom well-versed in animal medications from pilling to injections on both cats and dogs. (Three of us are hospital trained.) We enjoy learning about your pet's personality and idiosyncrasies. Everyone is unique and we embrace our differences. Life would be boring if we were all the same!

I cannot tell you how grateful we are to have found Christy and her family! Our Great Dane doesn't do well in kennels and has always been anxious about staying with other people. She'll pace around looking for us and won't settle down or sleep for at least 24 hours, and when she comes back to us she's clearly exhausted from being so anxious. We've tried many different sitters on Rover, but when our dog arrived at Christy's she was calm and happy from the moment she arrived. Honestly, my dog didn't care when I left. It was sort of flabbergasting. Christy and her family are around the house nearly all day, and they've got a great setup with a huge couch and backyard. My dog loves their house and their kids and was clearly very, very happy every moment she was there. I brought my dog back for a second visit and she stayed for more than a week and loved it. And Christy and her family are so sweet and affectionate with our dog, it really shows. We are so, so grateful for Christy--we NEVER would have imagined that we'd find somewhere our pup is actually happy to go! It is so amazing not to have to worry about going out of town, we're actually planning additional trips as a result. We love you Christy!
