Pet care experience
Have always been a dog lover, no breed preference but melt away at any chance to hang out with a floof. I’ve maintained great relationships with most of the dog parents I’ve sat for and some blossomed into wonderful friendships. I frequently share updates/snaps/pictures of pups to keep everyone looped in. I work in healthcare (full time) so taking care of others comes easily to me- I’m now a little more removed from direct patient care and miss the interaction and relationships I normally used to form at work. I recently had my dog pass away, Scotia was a great pyr with a great heart. Will take a break from owning my own, but happy to dote on a fur friend pet time :)
Reviews
Corina was truly a pleasure to have in our home! Pippa was taken great care of and I know she just loves Corina! Corina gave us plenty of updates on how the weekend was going, which made me so happy; they had a great time together and we will definitely hire and host Corina again. Thank you, Corina!!!
Corina was a terrific sitter and my dog Greystone was happy and well cared for during my absence. She came over a week ahead to meet my dog and see the place, sent me pics every day, arrived when agreed, and answered all texts quickly. She even socialized Greystone with friends and dogs while I was away. Recommended 100%!
Corina was a pleasure from beginning to end - dependable, communicative, thoughtful. She took great care of our pets and our home, and was a delight to work with.
Corina was wonderful. She was very responsive, sent frequent pics, and made us feel like our pup was very well taken care of during the stay.

If I’m in someone else’s home- I’m very respectful and leave the place as I’ve found it if not better. List of rules to start is always best to set mutual expectations.
Information Corina S. would like to know about your pet
I’ve worked with different breeds from yorkies to Newfoundland’s. I prefer meet ups before agreeing to sit for you, because I’ve walked into situations before where it wasn’t a good match. I have fairly vast experience with labs, and i've had families with poodles, labradoodles, a few mutts, yorkies, shitzus, weimaraners, huskies and now pyrs. I would like to know if your pup is a shadow or if he/she likes independence. I enjoy taking dogs on car rides to the beach, on errands, but if they don’t ride well, would be nice to know that leaving them alone at home won’t cause any problems. Above all I’m here for a good time- I do this for pleasure and my goal is to give your pet a mini vacation but also enjoy myself too!
A typical day
Walks, daily affirmations (?) and cuddles are my best traits when sitting. I do have some dog parks around, and East prom is one of my favorite spots but I wouldn’t visit until I was comfortable enough understanding how your pet is around other dogs, children, off leash if permitted, etc. let me know how I can best accommodate!
Services
Corina can watch in your home
Availability
Love to go on daily walks, weekend beach trips and some ball action- my schedule is very much 9-5 mon-fri. I live near work, so it was easy to hop in for lunch to check on my own or anyone staying with me, but depending on distance, may not always be able to do so during the work day (read: I cannot stay in your home whole days during the week)
