“Christine took such wonderful care of my 13 year old Newfie mix Punkie! As a large breed, Punkie has some health issues and Christine knew just how to care for her with short walks, gentle brushing and lots of love! Christine went above and beyond making sure all the tumbleweeds of hair were cleaned up before I got home. Such a joy to come home to clean floors and a happy dog! Thank you, Christine!”

“Alyssa is awesome! I’ve used her as a sitter before and I can always trust that my cat will be in great hands. He’s a bit of a grouch but she’s able to quickly bond with him and always makes sure he’s well taken care of. Will definitely look to book her again next time I’m out of town.”

About: I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I had two labs growing up and another lab in my early twenties who I still grieve for today. I currently have no dogs of my own so I pour all my love into my friend’s dogs. The dog I had my twenties had behavioral issues and required patience and understanding in a short amount of time he went from being withdrawn and antisocial to a complete love bug! I’m unemployed but I take care of my disabled mom. Because of this I have a very flexible schedule. I have always loved dogs and miss having one of my own. I’m always excited to spend time with my friend’s dogs. I don’t plan on boarding any dogs at my own home. With how my mom’s health is now it wouldn’t be a good idea to do so.
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by puppies, kittens, and all kinds of animals. I was there when my first dog gave birth and helped raise the puppies, learning how to train them along the way.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cary
Indre is a 5 star pet caregiver and a mature, balanced person we are completely comfortable leaving our two dogs and a cat to her when we travel. One dog needs 5 different eyedrops 3x a day, the dogs eat different foods, and one of the dogs has very limited mobility. So complex caregiving is well within her skills!!
