Hello everyone, My name is Christina but you could call me Chrissy. I am new to Rover but I have experience with taking care of animals for over a year. Here is a little bit about me: I am a senior at the University of Illinois at Chicago, studying Communication and Public health. I am also a first-generation college student and an identical twin. I have a lot of patience with all types of animals and cannot wait to get to know you and your pets! I have experience with dog sitting small to medium dogs as well as cats. In fact, I had my very first cat around 3 years old and I currently have my own kitten. I am extremely compassionate and good with detailed instructions, so if you need someone who needs to have good attention to detail I am your gal. I normally go to the client's house just because my cat is special needs and normally does not react the best with other furbabies (he gets a lot of anxiety). I like to keep places clean (such as making sure there is no food or garbage lying around) and keep an eye out on the pets to avoid mistakes. I also allow the pets to come to me first and would never approach them in a rushed manner (unless they are super friendly and cuddly of course). The biggest objective for me is to make sure your pets can trust me, comfort them, play with them, and keep them safe. I hope to hear from you soon!
