Christine's Critter Care & Training

We absolutely love Christine and she takes the best care of our two dogs! We were very concerned when hiring a dog walker about finding someone that we could trust. Christine does so well with our fur babies and we could not be happier! I would recommend her services to anyone who is looking for any sort of care for their pets!

Christine is amazing!!! We took her reactivity class, learned a lot and can see improvements in our dog. Christine gave us great information and is so supportive. We would definitely recommend Christine to anyone who is looking to do a class with their pup.

Christine is an absolute pleasure to work with! She is incredibly knowledgeable and we enjoyed all the classes we have taken with her. Our puppy has come a long way with her guidance! We highly recommend Christine!

Christine looks after my 2 doodles and my daughters Australian Shepard, love getting the visit updates photos. I’m completely comfortable leaving them in Christines care and can enjoy my time away knowing they are well taken care of. Christine spends good quality time with them giving them each individual loves and cuddles!

Christine is the ONLY person we trust with our dog - she is so kind and caring. Our dog can be reactive and has some quirks but Christine has faithfully worked with him and us for over a year and has been so patient and loyal. She has also managed his routine well - he is happy and gets excited to see Christine and it says a lot when our guy likes someone!! I 100% recommend Christine.

Christine was an excellent teacher for our 10 month old puppy Herbz. He had developed some reactivity while on leash and she showed us the best ways to get his attention and ignore the other dogs while on walks. We used clicker trained that he took well too and she even helped us with the loose leash walking. Herbz is on his way to becoming a very polite pup.

I unfortunately fell ill and had to cancel my trip and subsequently my booking with Christine to look after my cats, so I can’t rate her in home services yet. However, she was very professional and quick to respond to and accommodate my inquiry into her services. Our meet and greet revealed that she is a huge animal lover and I have no doubt that my fur babies would have been well cared for while I was away. Her rates are also very reasonable, especially when compared to many of the other companies out there. I will definitely be contacting her again in the future when I need a pet sitter.

I felt totally at ease leaving my best buddy in Christine’s very capable hands as she is something of a “ dog whisper” I would have cancelled my trip rather than leave him with somebody I didn’ttrust !Although my dog is a small breed he settled in nicely with her Rottweilers Her dogs are very gentle and my dog even snuggled with the adult !They treated my dog like a member of their family which I greatly appreciatedShe and her husband are great people and my dog even took up watching hockey games on TV with her husbandShe sent me pictures daily so I could see how he was doingI‘m grateful I found such a wonderful family to care for my dog while I amaway

Christine has really helped us with our dog Millie’s reactivity. Millie hasn’t gotten fully socialized being a Covid puppy and the techniques that Christine has taught us have really made walks more fun with less barking and lunging at other dogs and passers by. Thanks so much Christine! We would highly recommend her classes!

Christine is amazing.She looked after our greyhound and greyhound cross for five days and we couldn’t be happier with her services. We were nervous as this was the first time we’d been away from our dogs, but Christine made all of us feel comfortable.Christine is cautious – in a good way, prepared and resourceful. Before she took us on as clients, we met twice (once at our home, then at hers). We really felt at ease with Christine because she was taking the time to make sure we were set up for success, identifying and heading off potential problems.Every day we were gone, we received photos showing our dogs having fun and looking very much at home. Christine clipped their nails and got them used to going up and down longer flights of stairs (we only have four steps in our house). Our pups were on a better schedule when we got home – no more going outside in the middle of the night. She even took them to an off-leash park we’ve never used.We highly recommend her services and look forward to planning our next vacation knowing our dogs will be safe and happy with Christine!
