Make all pets feel safe and loved !

Pet care experience

I have had dogs for as long as I can remember. I have a passion for caring for animals and making them feel loved and welcomed. I have about 6 years of personal experience in cleaning animal waste, feeding, exercising/ playing with dogs, and just overall keeping them happy and healthy from my family’s and friends pets! I love to keep my dogs clean, healthy, and happy, I have learned how to deal with animal waste and dog behaviors from my personal experience with my dog babies. I have taken care of pets in my own home and have stopped my friends and neighbors home to check in on theirs! I feel that the dog sitting environment would be the best for me because I love being productive, organizing, cleaning, giving service to others, and making others smile and proud. I was also a shift lead employee at a Pet resort/ daycare, some of my tasks are cleaning everything, bathing dogs, feeding/ giving medication, walking dogs, TLC time with dogs, etc. I believe I am incredibly trustworthy, adaptable, resourceful, and reliable. I would love to be able to have the chance to learn and understand more about all types of animals including your companions!

Mila looked like she had tons of fun and enjoyed her time. We got plenty of pictures and updates and felt assured that Mila was in good hands!

Christy is has been great with my dog. Even when I needed a last minute drop in she was there. I would definitely recommend using her.

Christy and Luke do a fantastic job of taking care of our Sheepadoodle. They sent regular, detailed updates and tons of photos while we were away. It’s always a relief to know your fur baby is in good hands. We will definitely use them again! 😃

Christy was great! She made sure to keep me updated on everything that was happening and even took care of a couple of unexpected things that popped up. Highly recommend!

I have 2 sweet doggies of my own, one 2 year old shepherd mix and one 2 year old toy australian shepherded! They are both incredibly sweet and playful, they will play and play until they have no more energy and will just lay down and sleep! I have a fenced in backyard for lots of room to run around, I have a park and river that is right next to my house for dog walks or just for more outdoor play! And I also have big crates if needed, dog and cat toys, dog food and treats, and much more! While I am at a clients home caring for their pet I make sure I am completely transparent with the client with my schedule, services, etc. I want the client to be able to trust me and peace of mind. I would also like to stress-free so I would ask many questions about their pet and their expectations of my services. I will also answer all of the clients questions towards me truthfully and respectfully, during the actual care taking of the clients pet I would ask for permission before taking any actions and keep them updating on their fur babies. I will give the clients pets the care and attention they deserve as a thank you for the clients faith in me!

Information Christy L. would like to know about your pet

Some information I would love to know about your dog ahead of time is it’s behavior, temperment, it’s interactions with other pets and people, food aggression, medical issues, allergies, diets, emergency and vet contact information, likes and dislikes, and their schedule/ habits.

A typical day

I would love to help nurture and grow your dogs mental and physical abilities! The activities I will do while watching your dogs will all depend on the dog itself, so if your dog is younger and hyper we would spend a lot of our time running around, exploring new scents in places, and making lots of new friends (if allowed), and also take breaks to calm down and rest. If your dog is on the older side I’ll add some physical activities in our schedule such as a calm nature walk or a quick dip in a small pool/ river/ lake but we would mostly be indoors spending quality time together, lots of sleeping, maybe even hide and seek with treats, and lots of livings! Overall the activities I wouod do while watching your dog will be to your preferences!
