Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old, from family to friends’ dogs. Since that age we also had a family dog that I was responsible for feeding, walking, bathing, and treating them like they were my very own child. Now that I am older, I have a 5 year old Maltese who I absolutely adore. She is my world and I would go above and beyond for her. Pet care is a 24 hour job for me since I own a fur baby. I am currently in the Air Force so with my job position I have the flexibility to check on pets during lunch and after work. Because I own a fur baby, I wouldn’t be able to do over nights but I can do plenty of check ins during the week/weekend. I purchased my Maltese when she was 12 weeks old. Since the day i brought her home I have trained her to pee inside the house on potty pads. I never wanted her to hold her pee during the day so with pads she is free to use the bathroom whenever she needs. I also have never crated her and she roams the house as she pleases. I treat every dog like they are my own so I always make sure they are as comfortable as possible since they know their humans are gone. Dogs come first as well as their needs so I would make sure your fur babies are well token care of while I am watching them by feeding them, making sure they go potty, and giving them unlimited love/attention.

We needed a last minute drop in and Cristina replied so quick and was able to accommodate us! Her communication was exquisite and I felt very comfortable letting her drop in on our puppy. She saved the day!

Cristina is amazing. She has watched my babies multiple times and never disappoints. She’s extremely kind, helpful, caring, and communicative. My babies love her and I’m so thankful to have found her. We are long term clients. Thank you Cristina!

Information Cristina V. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or special requests. The dogs safety and well being is my number one priority especially since their owners will be out of town. I really just want to know every small thing about the pet so that I am able to make sure the dog sitting goes smoothly.

A typical day

I like to play games with dogs and take them on walks or jogs! I love to play fetch with dogs and stop until the dog is tired and ready for a nap. I definitely walk them around the neighborhood so they could explore and smell new scents.
