Pet care experience

My experience in pet care stems from my genuine concern for the well-being of animals and my inclination towards gaining knowledge in care for animals. Which stems from my personal experiences spending extensive time with beloved pets. Observing their individual personalities, the lively energy of an active animal, and the comforting companionship of a furry friend are the factors that drive my commitment to providing exceptional experiences for every pet. I have some experience working with various animals, including turtles and bearded dragons. Additionally, I have successfully rescued several newborn kittens. Personally, I have a passion for animals and if possible, I would love to have my own farm. My objective is to uphold your pets' routines and consistently implement any positive training protocols, in order to facilitate a seamless transition when you are not around. Currently, I am employed full time, but I would be interested in providing assistance with walking or feeding animals in the afternoons when you are unable to do so. However, I can only provide care for pets at their own homes or take them for walks, as my apartment does not allow animals.

Christina is great! I’ve booked her several times and she is communicative, trustworthy, and flexible. Always puts me at ease when we’re away and the kitties and tortoise enjoy her company. Highly recommend.

This is the first time I’ve used Rover and I will definitely use them again! I have two labs and they are my life!!! Christina came over and treated them like her own and even had them perform for some treats!!! At the meet and greet she paid attention to them and didn’t mind a lot of lab kisses! The girls loved her. Thank you Christina and I’ll definitely be using you again…

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
