“We just wanted to say a huge thank you for taking such great care of our boys this past week! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and reliable hands. We could tell from the updates (and their happy, relaxed energy when we got home!) that they felt safe, spoiled, and well cared for. We’re so grateful for you and truly appreciate all the time, attention, and love you gave them while we were away. Hope we can book with you again in the future!”

“Paige dropped in on our dog twice a day for 4 days while I was away on a trip and I can't recommend her enough! She was very professional, prompt, and had great communication before and during my trip. She went above and beyond taking care of him and made sure to get all of his energy out during her drop ins. Louie made a new friend and will miss seeing Paige :)”

About: "What differentiates me from other caregivers is the love and patience with which I treat each pet, as if it were part of my family. I have experience taking care of both kittens and young dogs as well as older pets that require special attention, medication or delicate care. I adapt to your needs and always maintain clear communication with the owners to give them peace of mind. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. I organize my day to provide them with quality time, making sure they receive attention, games, food and a lot of love. Seeing them happy and calm is my greatest reward, that's why I'm always available and committed to their well-being." *I have a spacious fenced yard and two very friendly dogs that love making new friends! Your pet will have a safe, playful environment and lots of attention. I'm happy to follow your pet's routine and can also crate them if needed. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind.

“We were happy to invite Christine back to watch our three cats while away on a two week vacation. The cats were well taken care of, so happy by the time we arrived back home, and all duties were done with care. Would highly recommend!!!”
