Must Love Dogs

Pet sitting this summer has been a success! It's a great side business and it works absolutely perfectly with my 9-5 work schedule. I actually enjoy the work and can only hope that it will continue to grow. If you are looking to earn some extra cash, this might be the way to go!

Here are some snaphots of the pets that I've been sitting for this summer. They all have their own special personalities, it's so funny to observe! They are all fantastic and I enjoy taking care of each and every one.

Meet Sammi - a 10 year old German Shepard. We just found out that Sammi is sick. I've been taking extra special care of this girl.



Lola & Giga - 11 & 6 year old Doxin's. These two love each other so much.


Eva - 6 year old Doberman Pinscher. She is super sweet and extremely gentle.


Champers! Or Champ - 10 year old Schnauzer. This is my parent's dog, he came to stay with me for a week in August.


Chrissie - a 6 month old Boston Terrier. This one is FULL of energy! She just recently got spayed.



Sammi, Lola & Gigi, Eva, Champ and Chrissie say to pass on the word about Christin's Pet Sitting Co.! Animals of all kind are welcome... the more the merrier :)

Live Tunes

Tyler and I love to catch a good show every now and again. We hadn't been to one in a while and were pleasantly surprised last week when Corinne and Brad invited us to go see Tom Petty down at Phillips Arena. To be honest, I don't think we enjoyed the show as much as we did each other's company! The seats were fantastic and there were some familiar tunes, but Tom is getting old and so is Crosby, Stills & Nash who opened for him.

We had lot's of laughs that night!
Great seats!


A few days after the show, I received a text from Brad with an awesome idea - to go see a live show every month. Since Tyler and Igot a real itch from seeing Tom Petty, we LOVE the idea and we're doing it! Better get your tickets, Brad!! We already have a little lineup:
  • August was Tom Petty
  • September 15th - Kings of Leon (KOL) w/ the Black Keys and The Whigs (who are from Alpharetta!)
  • October - presently showless (idea's welcome!)
  • November 7th - Mumford & Sons!
Mumford & Sons are one of our faves right now and we can't wait to see them live. I'm a huge fan and Tyler is an even bigger one. They'll be playing at the new Buckhead Theater. We're pumped to check out that venue, it used to be the Roxy. I'm especially excited because we can walk there from my apartment.

We're holding you to this, Corinne & Brad!

Hello Again!

Hello my dedicated blog readers! How has everybody been holding up without me? I know that you all are just DYING to see what I have to post next... totally kidding.
It is hard to believe that it's been almost two months since my last post! I have to admit, blogging can be very time consuming and takes a lot of dedication, to say the least. And, it's hard to determine if people really find any of my posts interesting.
So what have I been up to? Well, we are coming to an end of the summer season and I have pretty much consumed most of it with weddings, wedding showers, wedding parties, baby showers, bachelorette parties, birthdays, graduation parties, and pet sitting of course!
These are just a few snapshots but it's been a very busy and full of fun summer...
