Dog deprived🥺 Let me help you out!

Pet care experience

Love loving and taking care of all dogs, especially my big mutt Ginger who I can't remember living without. She recently passed, so I'd love to help out anyway I can so I can keep dogs in my life! I helped take care of Ginger for 12 years with walks, baths, feeding, playing, and training, and I used to pet-sit (feed/walk/check on) my neighbors dogs and cats too.

Christy was extremely reliable. She removed a tick from one of my boyz! I’d give her 10 stars if I could!

Christy was such a wonderful and caring sitter for our pup! Really communicative, flexible, and easy to coordinate with. Our girl was so happy, we would highly recommend Christy.

Christy is a 5/5 star dog walker! She offered to do a meet and greet the same day even though I requested her services very last minute. She is very communicative and provides great updates. She made me feel confident in her abilities so I was worry-free while away from my pup! I would definitely recommend her and will be a return customer.

Christy is wonderful! Sage has some health issues and Christy was caring and attentive to all the specific details for Sage. She arrived on time and communicated with me. I would be very comfortable inviting Christy back to take care of Sage!

Safety, trust & environment

Happy to follow any guidelines you have in terms of your pet's safety! I know my dog used to be a little unreliable when meeting other dogs/people, so in general I just avoid other interactions when possible on walks. I'm very patient, and I don't believe in yanking the leash unless absolutely necessary.

Information Christy L. would like to know about your pet

I know commands for certain things vary across owners, so if there are any special ones you use often those are definitely helpful to know. I would also ask you to disclose any health issues you think I should know about and how you approach them. Other than that, you know your dog best! If you think there's something I need to know, I'm all ears :)

A typical day

Huge fan of cuddling, teaching new tricks, playing fetch or tug of war, and exploring new areas on walks! While I may not always be able to take your dog to my favorite spots on walks, I love getting more familiar with Charlottesville by taking your dog around its own usual terrain.

Availability

I'm working part time as a server at a local restaurant, so I'm free just about every morning until 11 or 2 if I'm working, and if I'm not I'm free all day/night! Unfortunately my schedule is not super reliable in terms of which days of the week I'll be working, but I'll be sure to keep it updated on here :)
