Experienced Animal Fanatic!!!

Here’s a polished summary you could use for a job application, volunteer profile, or biography: Animals have always been one of my greatest passions, and I have dedicated much of my life to their care and well-being. Throughout college, I worked at an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience assisting with the care of animals of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. That experience strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, and compassionate care while reinforcing my commitment to advocating for those who cannot speak for themselves. Beyond my professional experience, I have owned and fostered multiple dogs at one time, providing safe, loving homes while helping prepare them for permanent families. I have also volunteered extensively with the nonprofit F.U.R., where I transported rescue animals across the state, fostered litters of puppies, and supported countless rescue efforts. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and teamwork in animal welfare. I believe every animal deserves compassion and respect, regardless of breed, age, size, or background. I approach each animal without bias, focusing instead on understanding their individual needs and providing the care, advocacy, and second chances they deserve. My lifelong dedication to animal welfare continues to drive my passion for making a positive impact in the lives of animals and the people who care for them.

Christina made sure that my babies were taken care of while I was out of town. She went above and beyond to accommodate my pups and their schedules!

Doggy Day Care • May 19, 2019

Love Christina! To start off my visit was completely last minute on a SATURDAY! Emergency came up and no one to watch, Christina lives extremely close to where I’m staying, and she responded with no hesitation! My puppy absolutely loved her and her dogs! He had so much fun running in her backyard having a blast in the sun. I was super excited and grateful! Will definitely be using her again, and I HIGHLY recommend her!

House Sitting • Jun 22, 2017

Very nice people and kept us updated on everything, but they didn't stay at our house like I and the only reason I know that is because there were two huge pee puddles on our bed and the house smelled horrible when we got home.

Schedule

As an elementary school teacher, I have a schedule that allows me to provide consistent care and attention to animals. My workday ends in the afternoon, giving me plenty of time each evening for exercise, training, and companionship. I also have weekends, holidays, and school breaks free, and I am home full-time during the summer. This flexibility makes it possible for me to meet the physical and emotional needs of the animals in my care while providing them with a stable, loving environment.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced-in backyard that provides a safe, secure space for pets to play and relax. My home is near the water in a large neighborhood with sidewalks and friendly neighbors who also have pets, creating a welcoming and trustworthy environment for walks and outdoor time.

Pets

A typical day

I always like to provide ample amounts of activities for the dogs that I sit or board for. I have baskets of toys and large amounts of space for the pups to play. I have doggy blankets, pillows, chew toys, bones, etc. for each dog I board or sit for.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
No females in heat
Christina can host up to 3 pets per night
The breed absolutely does not matter. The only required questions I need answered is if the animal is good with other animals to eat, sleep, or play. If I can get the gist of an animal's behavior before I sit for them, I can create a schedule specific to their needs to make their experience better for them and easier on the both of us.
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.
