Christina took excellent care of my two dogs, sending pictures daily! We will definitely book with her again and again!

After interviewing a couple pet sitters from the Rover app, we settled on Christina to take care of our 2 dogs and 1 cat while we were on vacation. One of the reasons we chose her was because of her calm confidence with the dogs. One of our dogs has anxiety issues and she did not seem to be deterred by him, and he also warmed up to her quite readily at the initial interview. She asked pertinent questions about their habits and personalities. She was also able and willing to perform her regular job right from our home which allowed our pets to stick with a schedule close to what they are used to. She went above and beyond our expectations by also agreeing to pick up the dog feces in the yard and also vacuumed the house (without being asked) before we returned. We have already re-booked her for a brief upcoming drop in visit and would highly recommend her services.

Christina was absolutely amazing. Very responsive and responsible. Showed up on time for our meet and greets and then made sure timing was perfect for arrival and departure during her stay. My dog has epilepsy and I have been very reluctant to leave him with just anybody. I immediately felt comfortable with Christina - she asked all of the right questions and felt very much at ease with him, despite his condition. Christina sent pictures and gave updates throughout the weekend, even unprompted. She brought my dog on several adventures! He was one happy pup. Additionally, she left my home in the same condition we left it. She cleaned up after herself and even washed linens that she used. A wonderful experience and I will definitely use her again!

I travel quite frequently for work and my husband & I also visit our daughter who recently moved out of state. We have an 11 month old puppy Charlie who hasn’t been left only since we’ve had her. We were anxious about leaving someone in our home and finding someone caring and trustworthy to care for Charlie. Meeting Christina was a true blessing for us! She is professional, dependable and communicates openly and consistently while we are away. She is very caring and patient with Charlie, who is very high energy and spoiled. Charlie fell in love with Christina and even cried recently after she left. If you decide to work with Christina you will not be disappointed! She’s incredible!

Important information for me would be specifics on your dog’s behavior. For example, do they like long walks/ runs or would they just rather just hang out and relax. As well any injuries or medications

I enjoy going to the parks. There are a lot of nice nature trails in my area and long walks are my favorite. For senior dogs that can’t handle to long of walks I still enjoy talking them out side for some fresh air and relaxation
