Furry Friend Care Taker

Pet care experience

Hello! I have lived with at least one pet in my house my whole life so animals are very important to me. I have taken care of a lot of different cats and dogs both small and large. I use to volunteer at a no-kill shelter specifically in the cat section so I understand a lot about caring for cats. I have dog sat all my family and friends dogs at least once when they needed me to so having more than one dog in the house is something I am used to. I currently live with 6 cats and 3 dogs!! Crazy right?! I adore animals to say the least and that means they will always be priority to me. Dogs cats bunnies birds you name it I will take care of them! My approach to each pet is unique and based specifically for them. I have been training the dogs i’ve taken care of recently so please feel free to ask me any question you have! I promise your fur baby will be loved a million in my care💞

I left my Blue for the first time for overnight boarding with Cristina and i have to say i was very impressed. She treated Blue like her own dog. She took him out to the park everyday that she had him. He got along with her own dog. I was very comfortable with the care she provided and will be my first choice again.

I had Cristina house sit my two fur babies over a weekend and they loved her! She kept me updated on what they were doing throughout the weekend. She sent me pictures of them and took them on walks daily! She is also so sweet and left my house in perfect shape! Book her to watch your fur babies!!!!!

Cristina took a very good care of my dog Boro and our home while we were on a vacation. Great communication + she was so accommodating and understanding despite the changes in our travel schedule. Highly recommended!

Paco was very tuckered out when he came home which was great. Her dog and my dog became great friends and she said they played all day, I believe it from how sleepy paco was the rest of the day. Christina was responsive and send a few pics.

No matter the pet I always make sure everything needed to them is easily accessible. There is a lot to do for any animal so laziness is never an option for me! I tend to adjust my form of care depending on the pets needs. Some want more lay back days and i’m all for it. Others need to get energy out so we go and do that. Some need to work on social skills and if they aren’t my personal pets I ask for permission before offering some sort of socialization training. Training in general is always offered when needed.

Information Cristina M. would like to know about your pet

Their personal preferences of how their day needs to be. High energy require more one on one usually depending on their training and owner’s preference. I live socializing the dogs as much as i can but it’s always with extreme caution and awareness of the environment they will be in. Low energy dogs i tend to entertain based on how they prefer to get through the day. The owner’s overview of how their dog is in a typical day always helps me determine which path i need to take because sometimes dogs need more than the owner plans for and if that is the case i always communicate my opinion on how the day should go.

A typical day

We will walk around my neighborhood or go to the local dog park. We can go walk the Walkway Over The Hudson or hiking Mount Beacon or any other trails around the area. If you have a more laid back dog we can cuddle up and watch Netflix.
