Hello!! My name is Cristine. Here's a little bit about myself. I have always loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I wasn't really able to have pets such as dogs or cats, but I had parakeets, fish, and hamsters. My dog, Zoe, means the world to me. I got her from a shelter when she was a puppy in 2010. She makes me smile and laugh every day. She will be celebrating her 13th birthday this year! Besides being passionate about animals and having personal experience caring for animals, I also have extensive professional experience. I have been working in a pet/animal-related field since 2005, for a total of 11 years. 9 of those years were spent working in the veterinary field. I am available to do drop-in visits and dog walking in the Orange County area. I also work with cats, birds, and small animals. I am patient, kind, affectionate, and trustworthy. And above all else, I am reliable.
