Ms.Doolittle has come to Hodgkins!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Cristina & I’ve been a professional Petsitter for over 30 yrs in my home town of Oak Park. As of Nov. 2019, I’ve relocated to Hodgkins, IL where I also provide my petsitting & boarding services to pet parents & their beloved fur kidz. I will provide loving & compassionate care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I currently have kitties who love having company! As long as your little fur baby is cat friendly, my kids would love to have your doggie stay over as a guest & be their new play buddy! I also provide petsitting in your home for your cats when your not able to be there. I’m also a foster dog mom for A Caring Place Humane Society in Downers Grove & a kitty foster mom for Animal Care League in Oak Park.🐾

Cristina is wonderful with our pug. She has a passion for animals and Hank loves hanging out with her! She sends videos and pics so we know he is having a great time!

Cristina has watched our dogs for many years now. She is so reliable, and my dogs love her. We have left our dogs with her for long vacations, and she takes such great care of them. I am so thankful for Cristina!

Hi Everyone! Cristina has been taking care of our family cats since 2003– 16 years!! I can not say enough good things about this wonderful person. She will love your pet like you do, and you know your baby will be in loving and reliable hands while you are gone. I never worry when Cristina is looking in on her. A few years back I had a senior cat, and Cristina would go the extra mile to administer medications and even an inhaler, which was not easy. She keeps the litter box pristine— Brings in the mail— Sends a cute picture via text if you are missing your pet!! Best of all, when we arrive home, our cat is in a pretty good mood. In fact, I know that Cristina plays with her, brushes her, and gives her a lot of affection - which results in a very well adjusted and even keel cat when we return. I suspect the cat may like Cristina a little more than us, lol! Cristina loves all animals, and I believe she has both cats and dogs as pets. She knows her way around dogs too! I highly recommend Cristina— I feel so fortunate that we met her! You’ll agree!
