I am very motivated to enhance my understanding of other people and their communication styles, and because I have found cultural exchanges to be some of the most rewarding experiences in my life, I believe that getting to observe other people's homes and lifestyles while pet sitting would be a very insightful encounter. I love to go for long walks no matter what weather, I love nature probably as much as your pet does. In my free time when I wouldn't be caring for your fur babies, and I am a considerably clean individual who has a tendency to clean and organize when she gets bored.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gateway
Christian was fantastic. My Gracie was well taken care of. She’s an older dog and Christian let her walk at her own pace. He was very caring, always made sure she had fresh water, a treat and some extra puppy rubs before he left. Christian also had excellent communication with me throughout the process and would send pictures of Gracie on their walk. I highly recommend him for any pet services! Thank you so much Christian!
