Pet Lovin' Marina Mum 15+ Yrs. Exp.
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Cristina and I am a single mum to a 10-year-old daughter, Sofia, who adores animals just as much, if not more than I do! I have adopted, fostered, and cared for several cats, dogs, and breeds over the past 20 years and we have loved them all as if they were our own. You can rest assured that your fur babies are being spoiled and given plenty of attention in our care. We're so bananas for animals we even have an online pet store that donates a percentage of the profits to local charities 🐾 **NOTE: We are both fully vaccinated including booster doses for Covid. We have both recently tested negative. We live in the Cow Hollow/Marina District and take our pups to fully enclosed dog parks like Francisco Park or Moscone for an hour or two a day plus walks in the neighborhood. I have a fenced yard and can also keep your pets in crates, pens, in a separate room, or let them roam free inside our home if they are house trained and comfortable with that. We will send you adorable photos and videos throughout the day so you can see just how much they are livin' their best life at their home away from home 📷🎥💛 🏠 Boarding Service - 3x play at the parks, beach, and/or long walks - Complimentary treats - Toys and games to play with (treat puzzles, interactive dig toys, foraging mats, etc.) 🧸 Doggy Day Care - 2x play at the parks, beach, and/or long walks - Complimentary treats - Toys and games to play with (treat puzzles, interactive dig toys, foraging mats, etc.) - Drop off and pickup hours are between 7:30am-6pm. Drop off before 7:30am will apply a $5 fee. Pickup after 6pm will apply a late fee of $5 per hour. We do doggy daycare and boarding full-time :) Playcare while parents work and sleepovers with your pups daily, weekly, or on occasions is our job! We provide family style pet care with an open door policy where they are free to sleep where they want. That could be on the couch, in my bed, in my daughters bed, or in their own bed :) we are often called “Aunties house” or your pups “second home”. Our home is their home 💛🐶🏠
Reviews
Cristina has watched Basil multiple times and every time I’ve had a good experience. Cristina and her daughter are dog lovers and are very attentive to the dogs they watch! My sweet Basil can be a handful especially with leash reactivity and they handle him well. She always sends a daily update with photos and Basil always leaves happy and ready for a nap! She takes Basil out for walks and also plays with him inside. Cristina is communicative and flexible. No complaints!
Cristina was fantastic! She sent lots of photos and was great with our rescue dog, who came out super happy and clearly had a good time. Would definitely book again!
Cristina was very communicative and accommodating! She always makes me feel so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her and her family knowing they will give her all the same love I would. Highly recommend! She also sends you lots of photo updates for you.
Cristina and her daughter took such great care of my little puppy! She was surrounded by so much love in their home that she came home very content. Highly recommend her!

A typical day
I live in the Cow Hollow/Marina District of San Francisco so there are many dog parks and places to socialize, get their wiggles out, and play. Just steps from our home are Allyne Dog Park, Moscone Dog Park, Francisco Dog Park, Great Meadow Park at Fort Mason, Maritime Park/Beach, the Marina Green, and Crissy Field Beach.
