Reliable Dog Lover!

Pet care experience

Dog lover! I walk dogs just to get more time with fluffy friends :) I’ve had a dog as part of the family for my whole life. I truly love dogs, but I currently live in a no-pets apartment and can’t have my own right now. Instead, I do Rover a few hours per week as part of what I fondly refer to as “dog therapy”. I also enjoy dog training; my most recent proud moment was teaching my friend’s dog to play “treasure hunt” and fetch. I’m a fan of long walks, hikes, and East Bay hills explorations. My absolute favorite dogs are rescues, but I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, from mastiffs and newfies to shitzhus and terriers. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, favorite games, or things to avoid. I am kind, firm, and will pick up all your dog’s poop! I look forward to meeting you and your canine companion.

2nd time Cristina has watched our dogs and she was amazing once again! She sends lots of pictures and updates, and is so sweet and attentive with them. She was able to carry our old dog upstairs to hang out with the pack, and also administer their medications. I know they are always in good hands and getting lots of love. I’d recommend her to anyone!

Cristina watched our dogs for 5 days with only a few days notice, and I so appreciate her responsiveness and amazing communication about our dogs while we were away. Lots of picture updates, and she took perfect care of our two pups. She paid attention to their separate needs, as one of our dogs is old and required some special attention and care. Couldn’t have asked for more!

Cristina was a perfect match for my dog "Zowie." Cristina was flexible with her time, friendly, energetic and responsible. The "selfie" pictures of her and Zowie on their walks were great and reassuring. I don't often need a walker for my dog but, when I'm in that situation again, I will definitely book with Cristina and would refer her to anyone in need of a dog walker.

Cristina has been a pleasure to work with. Our dog loves her, and she has been incredibly reliable. We really feel like we got lucky that we found her.

I love to know if there is anything that scares your pup, or might cause them to run off (like fireworks). Please let me know if you or your pup have any special needs I can accommodate.

A typical day

I love finding new routes to explore with dogs. I get a lot of joy in seeing them sniff the new area. The curiosity shows on their faces!
