I’m currently working a couple of blocks away from my apt. I start at 9:30am which gives me a lot of time your take care of your baby by walking him/her and giving breakfast. I have a 30 min break which, when I can, I go back home, walk and feed the dog until I come back when I get off work at 6:00pm.

Let me know if your dog has any special need, medication or behavior that I can account for. I’ll try my best to make your baby feel as comfy as when he’s / she’s at home.

A typical day

A typical day starts early in the morning with a refreshing walk around the neighborhood, so they can stretch their legs and enjoy the fresh air. Then, it’s breakfast time, where I ensure they get the right portion of food and water. In the afternoon, we go for another walk, and it’s play time at the park across the street. This is key for me to keep them stimulated without being stressed. After all the activity, they get some well-deserved rest, while I keep an eye on them to ensure they’re comfortable. Before the day ends, I give them a little more attention with some cuddles, and then it’s time to settle in for the night.

Cristina was amazing with Raven during our week away! She sent daily updates and adorable photos & videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs—not just saying it, but truly showing it in how she cares. Raven came home happy, relaxed, and maybe a little bit spoiled (in the best way). Highly recommend!

Christina was very attentive and caring. It is the most comfortable I've ever seen Obi when he is not staying with friends or family!

Christina took care of our elderly dog Lui when we were on vacation. She took care of him like he was her own dog. Christina updated me several times a day with photos and videos. Lui was recovering from skin infection and still needed some aftercare, and Christina was amazing and knowledgeable, and she went above and beyond to make him feel better while in her care. Thanks Christina
