Christina is always so wonderful when watching our dogs. They love when she visits so much that they prefer staying home. I love that they are in familiar surroundings and do not get anxious. She has great communication and always follows up after every visit. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Christina! She loves and cares animals so much. She goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs not only have their basic needs met, but also to feel safe, loved and happy while we are away. Christina provides detailed updates, pictures and little notes that gave us peace of mind every single day. It is rare to find someone who treats your dog as if they were their own, but that is exactly what Christina does. She is reliable, professional, compassionate, and trustworthy, everything you could ever hope for in a dog sitter.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Christina! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely love and understood dogs. She went above and beyond to make sure my pups felt comfortable, happy, and cared for while I was away. Christina followed every instruction perfectly, and sent regular updates and adorable photos so I knew my dogs were excited to see her. She took the time to play with them, give them extra cuddles and make sure they had the medications they needed to get better. My dogs are much less stressed than when we take them somewhere and I am definitely convinced they are happier in their own environment. Christina also stepped in to handle a couple of emergencies we had when we were gone. Our alarm was randomly beeping and she took the time to help me figure out what was going on, even sending me a video of what was happening. We had one of our adult children need to stay while we were gone and Christina did a great job of navigating that situation while making sure our dogs were still cared for. I definitely will be using Christina again in the future and highly recommend her services! What a hidden gem she is and right in our neighborhood!

Christina was absolutely perfect! This was our first time using Rover and we will definitely be trying to book Christina again in the future! She was very accommodating to our last minute request. She came over and met our babies and reassured us. She went above and beyond during their visits, even letting me know about mail that didn’t get picked up. I love the fact she is right in our neighborhood. Our dogs absolutely loved having her stop in. They are much more comfortable at home and less stressed. We definitely will be trying to reserve Christina again in the near future! What an angel! Thank you so very much!
