Pet care experience

Hi there, my name is Chrissy, and I'd be thrilled to take care of your pets! I started working with Rover in 2018 to motivate myself to get out of the house on dog walks and have expanded my services over time to offer house sitting as well. I pride myself on being an excellent sitter and a thorough communicator. I promise to treat your pets just like my own. I grew up around dogs, cats, lizards, and snakes. I'm comfortable helping out pets that are older, those with special needs, or those that require medication, so don't be afraid to reach out if your pet has unique circumstances. (I've also found that I am quite good with dogs that are skittish or unable to be around other dogs. If that sounds like your pup, don't hesitate to contact me. I know it takes a while for some pets to adjust. I'm willing to sit and work with them.) I love to make homemade dog treats for all my friend's furry companions and would love to spoil your dog with them as well (barring any health/allergy concerns, and always with your permission, of course!). I also have an intense love for cats (and a big fat cat of my own), so if your feline friend needs a sitter to check on them, I'd be happy for the opportunity. I have an Instagram on which I post pictures of the pets I walk or watch. If your pet has their own profile and you'd like me to tag them, please let me know. I try to ask before I post pictures, and never include any identifying information like addresses or family photos in the posts. My Instagram handle is chrissylovesdoggos. I'm available for both house sitting and drop-ins, and I do dog walking as well. I currently don't advertise for boarding at my house, but I do have a fenced in front and back yard and plenty of space in the house for a dog. I'd be willing to potentially host dogs that are comfortable around cats and older children. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need this service and think your dog would be a good fit.

Chrissy is loving, professional and very flexible. She has always been on time and sends details of the visit with photo proof. We trust her with all our fur babies and will continue to utilize her services!

Safety, trust & environment

My biggest priority is keeping your pet happy and safe, and to leave your home looking the same or better than when I arrived. I have an eye for detail and will make sure I thoroughly understand any safety concerns you may have during my stay with your pet.

Information Christina K. would like to know about your pet

How does your dog interact with other dogs? Is your pet food aggressive? Does your pet take any medications? How does your pet react to other people and children? What precautions, if any, need to be taken while walking your dog, such as muzzling, keeping distance from other dogs, etc.?

A typical day

I'm down to do any activity your dog enjoys, whether that's hours of frisbee, running around the yard, playing tug of war, and I'm content to sit and spend time with your dog if all they want to do is nap on the couch.

Availability

I am currently double majoring at UW and finishing up a bachelor's degree. My weekday services vary every quarter, so please reach out for more info. I try to update my calendar regularly, but you’re more than welcome to message me about a date even if it says I’m unavailable. Sometimes I can make it work! I will try my best to accommodate your schedule and needs, but bookings do fill up fast. I take clients on a first come first served basis, so the sooner you let me know about your plans, the better!
