Experienced and loving dog care

Hello! I'm a 33 year old hybrid full time working professional living in Stirchley/Bournville with my long term partner. We have a house with a secure garden and plenty of parks and green space on our doorstep. My partner and I have grown up around dogs and have a lot of experience with them including rescues, the only reason we haven’t got one of our own is because we’d like to have children in a couple of years. I am very confident and caring with dogs and mindful of their own specific needs and quirks. I'm happy to walk and play with lively dogs or just be company for older, more chilled dogs. I am also respectful of the owner's rules and wishes - if you're happy for pets to come on the sofa/bed, so am I, but if you'd prefer them not to come into bedrooms, stay on the floor, I am happy to abide by these rules too. Breed and size I am flexible and as I work from home, I am flexible with time too. Hope to meet you and give your dog a happy home from home soon.

Christie is absolutely amazing, her communication is impeccable and instantaneous, she regularly sent me pupdate photos for the duration of the stay. She took my pup out on regular breaks and played in the park and Peach loved her evening cuddle time! I highly recommend Christie and we can't wait to use her service again very soon!

Doggy Day Care • Oct 07, 2021

Christie is so lovely, my little doggo was immediately at ease with her. She kept me posted through the day on what are they up to and I could tell they both had loads of fun. Very reliable and great with dogs! Definitely recommend ?

Christie is amazing with Reggie and Reggie loves her! She’s communicative, confident and lovely. I couldn’t wish for a better person to look after my little sausage 🐶 🥰

I can whole heartedly recommend Christie to care for anyone’s dog. She is very responsible, attentive and loving. She loves her family dog Rigsby more than any dog owner I know!

Christie is a fun loving, caring person which I've know for over two great years. She has always been considerate and attentive when we're together and absolutely loves being with dogs. She has brought her family dog over on a few occasions and I have never known anyone to love their dog as much as Christie does. If she was to look after anyone else's dog I truly believe she will treat the dog like they are her own and make them feel loved like she was their owner.

Christie is a true dog lover and would take fantastic care of your dog - just like she does for her own dog Rigsby. You won't find a better dog sitter or walker! They will get plenty of love and affection in your absence. Your only worry should be that they might not want to come home with you!

A typical day

I am experienced with and love to give dogs plenty of fun and stimulation, both through playing and tricks but also lots of energetic walks. Living in Hackney Wick I'm lucky to have plenty of open space nearby, with Hackney Marshes and Victoria Park both on my doorstep. I'm happy to buy toys and balls to give them plenty of exercise and fun when at home and out and about.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours that need to be accounted for. I have some experience with dogs who are a bit more unpredictable and need special care, so any additional information you can give me would be great. Our family dog - who was a rescue - has a skin condition which requires being given a tablet (well concealed in peanut butter!) each day, and also was quite unpredictable when we got him particularly around kids and other dogs, so I am familiar with dogs who need a little extra care.
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.
