I have over 17 years of work experience in the veterinary field in multiple positions. Communication and patient care are a few of my number one priorities, along with ensuring your routine is followed and expectations are met. Insulin administration, daily medications, extra walks, subcutaneous fluid administration; these are a few of the abundant needs that I am able to provide with ease and skill.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I tolerate (with love of course) two of my own fur-babies. Yuca, a blue pitbull terrier, who is an active little girl, and Valentino, or just Tino, a black mixed rescue from BARC. Our home has a large yard and close parks for those that may need outdoor play time. I understand the stress of having to put your dogs and cats in a boarding facility, as I myself love going to National Parks with my family. I would be so honored if you would “paws time” and entrust me with your kids, knowing they are loved the same as when they are with you.

Information Christina C. would like to know about your pet

To ensure your kiddo is comfortable and happy, I will be discussing with you ahead of the visit what makes them shine or what may startle them.

A typical day

I am excited to learn what your fur baby likes to do while at play or on walks. Throwing toys, walking on a harness or gentle leader, practicing sit or stay; I want to keep consistent what you have been working on at home, so your hard work isn't interrupted by my visits! I appreciate details of what you expect, no matter how long and specific you get, and will discuss and confirm with you so I fully understand.

Paws Time but not Love! 🐾

Pet care experience

Bruiser. A friendly paraplegic dachshund whose physical needs required his humans to find help at their home when they needed time away. Helping care for him blossomed my new love for pets of all sizes and medical conditions, outside of my work life in a veterinary clinic. I would love the chance to take above and beyond care of your fur-babies, from those that are healthy and active to the ones that need comfort and warmth during a difficult journey through life.

Christina made sure to connect with our fur-babies to gain their trust. Communication was amazing. We never had a worry while we were on vacation!

Christina was utterly amazing! Came home to very happy boys who were very well taken care of! I plan to refer her to everyone I know and recommend her to everyone! I felt very comfortable knowing that the boys were well taken care of.

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.
