I work a hybrid office job (4 days at home, one day in Downtown Minneapolis), so I'm happy to stay in your home during the day. I always have evenings and weekends free for walks and in-house care. I am available to do light house cleaning, watering plants, getting mail, etc--whatever you need done while you are away from your home. *One thing to note is that I do not own a car, I maintain my driver's license but I am from a cyclist/transit loving household.

Safety, trust & environment

My family has had dogs my entire life, from fostering a teeny Yorkie puppy to golden retrievers, a hound mix that loved to talk, and my mom's sweet senior german shepherd who still likes to swim every day. I do best with high energy dogs, but I enjoy a quiet stroll with an older pup too.

Information Christina N. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds and sizes and shapes. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs (doesn't get along with neighbor dog, nervous around skateboards//bikes, prefers to walk in the grass, uses a gentle leader or halter, etc)

A typical day

If your dog has a usual route (or some streets we should avoid) let me know and I will do my best to follow it!

Pet care experience

I worked at a doggie daycare for 2 years, assisting with some light grooming, puppy playtime, individual walks, and medication administration. Then I switched to in-home sittings and scheduled walks. I've been petsitting on Rover for about 8 years. I've been caring for pets of all kinds, including rabbits, frogs, chickens, goats, and lizards.

Christina was the best! From the first meeting we could tell she was great and would take care of our pup. She sent nice updates and we could tell Mac had a great time! Will absolutely book her again 😊

Christina was such a great sitter for our anxious pup! She knew how to handle our dog who is very afraid of strangers and was able to get our dog comfortable with her!

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.
