Pet care experience

Loving care, home full time, 1/4 ac

Hi, I'm Christina! I've been a Rover sitter and dog walker for over 6 years and have lots of experience with many different breeds. I love animals and promise to provide loving, fun, dependable care for your pet! I grew up with and helped care for dogs most of my life and have adopted a loveable lab mix about 7 years ago. I have also volunteered at the Humane Animal Rescue in Pittsburgh. I love going for walks and believe exercise is important for a healthy dog, not only for the physical exercise but mental stimulation too. I dog sit and dog walk almost full time so I have great availability during the day. If you work all day I would love to drop by your house and provide companionship for your pet with a walk or playtime visit. If you're out of town I would love to care for your pet overnight. I have a 1/4 acre with a fully fenced backyard offering lots of room to run around and play. Unlimited playtime and potty breaks! I provide full supervision inside and outside and treat your pet like they are family! My 6 year old lab mix has lots of energy and would love to play. I have 3 children, ages 10-19. I have a degree in biology and am currently working from home part-time so I'm home/available most of the day. I take my job of caring for your pet seriosly and always try to make sure they are comfortable and having fun. I enjoy taking pictures of pets and try to share snapshots of their time with me. I can't wait to meet you and your pet. Thank you so much for considering me! $24 per 30 minute dog walking prices are for Wildhorse, Bridgewood, Silver Oaks, Bricewood, Laura Heights, Silver Canyon, Braun Ridge, Laural Canyon, Oak Grove, and surrounding neighborhoods within 3-4 miles of the Wildhorse Subdivision. I may be able to service other areas for additional fees so please ask for details.

Christina has been awesome! She promptly keeps us informed of how the drop-in visits went, including providing pictures. We’d love to have Christina back.

Christina was very responsive to my communication and provided timely updates after coming to check on my cats. I really appreciated her fitting us into her schedule during the Thanksgiving holidays!

Christina took excellent care of our dog Ella when my husband and I went on vacation out of state. She kept me updated on Ella on a daily basis and sent me videos and pics as well. I’m so glad we found her!

Schedule

I work from from home a couple hours a day and pet sit and dog walk almost full time so I have a very flexible schedule. Besides picking up/dropping off the kids at school and their after school activities, I'm pretty open.

I'd like to know if your pet is up to date on vaccines, flea prevention, if they take any medication, or have any medical issues. I'd like to know their eating preferences, play preferences, sleep preferences, friendly with kids, friendly with other dogs, and any thing else that makes them unique. An Overnight Stay for only 1 night is based on 24hrs. Anything over 26 hrs will just be charged extra according to Rover's rates. Weekday drop offs can start after 8:30am. Weekend and holidays drop offs can start after 10am. If you need to drop off earlier than listed times please book for drop off the evening before. If you have a pet that stresses out in new environments or doesn't get along with other pets I offer house sitting as 3-30 minute in home drop-in visits. That way your pet can stay in the comfort of their own home and still get potty breaks, meals, and lots of love! I can also set trash out, water plants, and pickup mail while you're away too! Message me for prices.
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.
