Petit Pet Care Owner Christy Hackenberg:

All my life I have had pets, starting with Sandy, a cat my mother adopted from the Humane Society when I was 2. Over the years I’ve had cats, dogs, birds, mice, fish, a turtle and a rabbit. My current “fur family” consists of 2 cats: Scout abd Scotty. A house feels empty to me without critters around. 

I started out pet sitting for friends when they went out of town. After 20 years of being a graphic designer, I was ready for a change. I decided to finally follow my dream of working with animals. I worked at Zeus’ Place/Zeus’ Rescues where I gained considerable experience and knowledge working with different animals. I started Petit Pet Care in 2012. I continue to volunteer at Zeus’ Rescues and the LA-SPCA.

I’m a holistic pet care professional, meaning just as important as food and water is to your pet, so is play time, exercise, cuddle time and love. I’m also an avid gardener, so I can keep your plants and garden healthy while you are out of town. Photography is another of my hobbies, so I’ll send you photos of your pet(s) while you are away, when I text you daily updates. I strive to give you total peace of mind and to come home to happy, stress-free pets.

I will be the primary caretaker of your pets and home. This is my career and I take it seriously, it’s not a hobby. I am very responsible, reliable, professional and discrete. But you don’t have to take my word for it. Need references? Just ask. I want you to know whom you’re leaving your babies with while you’re gone. Feel free to browse the Testimonials page.
