Safety, trust & environment

I am an incredibly cautious person and would often give dog sitters a 1 page note on what to be careful for with my own dog when they would watch her so I understand the importance of safety, locking up, following owners instructions and being a good communicator. I always loved a little pic/text confirmation that my loved one was being well taken care of and I am happy to do the same.

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs, and recently had to say goodbye to my own dog after nearly 15 years together. I am a huge dog lover and looking to fill the void of being a pet owner by taking care of neighborhood dogs and taking them on walks and open to pet sitting and drop ins as well! I am happy to watch well mannered, fully potty trained dogs who are known to be good with children. Please ensure your pet is up to date on their flee medication & ensure they are free of flees prior to drop off. For dogs over ~40 lbs: Dog over 40 pounds taken on case by case basis. I specialize in laid-back, family-friendly large breeds and doodle-type mixes. I’m not currently taking high-drive protection breeds.

Highly recommend Cristina! She took great care of our dog during a weekend trip. She is a prompt communicator and sent plenty of updates and pictures. She is kind and you can tell she really loves dogs and I knew my dog would be in good hands with her. I will definitely reach out to Cristina again when I need a reliable dog sitter. Thanks Cristina!

Cristina has taken care of my sweet doggy, Olive, on numerous occasions. Cristina cares for Olive as if she were her own and I can rest easy knowing my baby is in great hands. Cristina is responsible, loving, and kind and you can tell she truly enjoys spending time with the dogs she takes care of. I would absolutely recommend Cristina to anyone looking for a pet sitter. Your dog will be happy you made the choice you did!

Cristina is an incredibly responsible and loving caregiver. She looked after my senior dog, Bella, with such patience and genuine affection. Knowing that my older dog was in such gentle hands gave me total peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly treats pets like family!
