Experienced pet sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m 32 and live in Hockessin De. I’ve been taking care of animals for about 16 years. I have experience working in a dog daycare, volunteering at shelters, and caring for animals by request from clients. I also have a pup that is my world! I have experience giving medication, taking animals to appointments, and providing hygienic care. Apart from animal care, I have my B.A. in corporate communication, and my M.S. in higher education policy and student affairs. I’m flexible, friendly, communicative, and dependable. I can provide references from clients that I have helped in the past and presently sit for. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Hoping I can make your life a little bit easier!

Christie was very patient with our dog Ollie as he settled in to new surroundings. I appreciate that she was communicative and flexible. Would definitely recommend her to others.

Christie has great communication and was prompt for the visit. My dog is challenging (reactive) and she was thoughtful in suggesting ways to work with him. Her patience and experience are a plus!

I had such a great first Rover experience with Christie! From the start, she were incredibly patient and understanding, especially with my puppy who can be a bit energetic and still learning. It really meant a lot to have someone who took the time to make my pup feel comfortable and cared for. She is very timely and reliable, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Communication was smooth, and I always felt like my puppy was in good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and attentive sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
