Relaxed Pet Caretaker
Pet care experience
I have allergies - so I prefer to keep my home as allergen free as possible - so unfortunately I can only keep non shedding dogs in my home, but walks and drop ins are great. I grew up around a Shetland Sheepdog, a Husky, and a Shiba Inu. I've had clients where I've pet sit for a poodle while owners were on vacation, I've watched SIX Yorkies for a family travelling for various sports competitions, and walked a cocker spaniel and a senior lab mix. All my families were happy and repeat clients but I moved from Boston and still enjoy the work as my side hustle.
Reviews
From the daily care of her own sweet Arlo, to helping my mother with her two Poodles, to taking afternoon walks with the largest dog I've seen, to managing a half dozen attention craving little ones for several days while their owner was out of the country - the one consistent thing for all these pets is the care and love I've seen Christy show to each of them. Whether it's for an afternoon or a week, a single dog or a litter, they'll be in good, caring hands with Christy.

Information Christy M. would like to know about your pet
**Disclaimer - I'm allergic to some breeds** I can walk any dog, but I can only allow non-shedding breeds to sleep over! Otherwise no problems.
A typical day
We can walk around the river or downtown. We'll play ball and have lots of quality time. I just like to give lots of attention and cozy in for naps.

Availability
I work fully remote and get an hour for lunch and I can flex my schedule. I take a walk every day by myself anyways but a definitely prefer it with a furry pal.
