Fun and active, local pet sitter!

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Christa and I’m an animal lover! I started Rover because I work too much to have my own pups. Now I can get my fix while helping local residents provide their furry family members the exercise and attention they need while away from home for extended periods of time. I generally love all animals, but big dogs have always held a very special place in my heart. I enjoy taking my 4-legged friends on walks and hikes around the valley... and my friends and family rely on me frequently to take their pets on fun adventures when they’re out of town. I work part time at a law office in Encino and I am generally in town most weekends. I also teach classes in Sylmar a couple days a week, but my schedule is pretty flexible otherwise. You can count on me to be reliable and trustworthy, and know that your pet’s safety, health and happiness is my #1 priority! I am willing to work with puppies, rescues and other dogs that may need a little extra training to develop healthier social skills.

Christa was great with our cat Taro! She went above and beyond the whole time, making sure Taro was well taken cared of! High recommend her for any cat sitting.

Christa was able to handle my very energetic, young Great Dane, which says a lot! My dog needs someone assertive to reinforce her training and will take advantage of the wrong person. I feel confident that Christa can handle it and that walks with Christa will continue to help solidify the training my dog learned. I’m really thankful she can take her on walks!

Christa is great! Our dog has a little behavior issue but Christa is totally in control. Our dog loves her! Christa also showed us some tricks on dog walking and it just made every walk a lot more fun. We’d love to work with her in the future.
