Safety, trust & environment

I can easily adapt to whatever works in your household and what your pets are used to. I cannot take pets currently where I am living, though I have my brother’s husky/lab that can be brought for dog park playtime if that’s of interest. He’s a goofy soul and good with big and small dogs.

Information Chrystina M. would like to know about your pet

Please let know if your pet has any special needs that I would need to account for. I have experience providing medicine and wound care.

A typical day

Stimulation is important. Nice long walks, dog park (if appropriate), nose games and training are of utmost importance. And a good cuddle once energy is expensed is key to a good relationship.

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my entire life (Labs and a Jack Russell), and cats for the past decade or so (shelter rescues). I recently lost my first adult dog, a Mastiff Dane and am looking to provide other’s animals with love and care to fill the void that’s left in my heart and my time. I am an equestrian that has worked in a vet clinic and experienced in wound care and giving medicine. I love animals big and small! It took me 30 min to win over my neighbour’s unsocialized pup and have a new bestie. Your fur babies will love me!

I was a bit nervous at first leaving my cat, but Chrystina was instantly loved by my cat. Super easy to chat, and even went above to help fix the automatic litter box when it malfunctioned. She eased my concerned right away and I look forward to being able to use her services again.

Chrystina was awesome & took amazing care of my little mini dachshund puppy Glizzie! 10/10 would recommend! I know Glizzie feels the same as he was SO excited to see her the second night she watched him! :)

Chrystina was fantastic and took such great care of my little mini dachshund puppy Glizzie for multiple evenings! 10/10 would recommend to anyone! I know Glizzie feels the same way :) He was so excited to see her again on the second night!
