Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavior that I can account for. My preference are dogs that are potty and crate trained and those that get along with with other dogs.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on hikes! My community is safe and the side streets are quiet. I am close to hiking trails and love to take dogs to the park to play and have fun! Sniffing, playing and running...its all part of the fun!

Christy is always so good with our pup! You can tell she really cares, and so does her toy Ozzy Petunia. That’s why we keep going back to her.

It was so great to have Christy watch our little girl. We were updated regularly and feel comfortable leaving Gracie with Christy again.
