Pet care experience

I will sell my car for my dogs care

I am a certified animal behaviouralist with many years of experience and a unique skill set. I worked as lead authority behaviourist at The Dog Bar where dogs roam freely at the bar with patrons while they enjoy drink and animal interactions of many sorts. I maintained the safety & security of dogs and humans, provided quality care by ways of prevention of accidents and intervention as the first line of defence whenever necessary. Serving hundreds of dogs and people a day in this unique and irregular environment prepared me to handle any possible scenario imaginable (even scenarios unimaginable). I am the most suitable person to take care of your animals. In addition to bringing my robust skill set and knowledge to the job I provide extra perks to my clients such as grooming services including brushing teeth, and baths if requested. Take them on runs and have physical play time throughout the day, take dogs to parks and pet stores for special treats, play cognitive games for specific dog breeds that stimulate their minds, practice any obedience or specific training provided by owner, teach skills to younger dogs to benefit dogs & owners with any extra training on a need basis, feed regularly and replenish water with filtered water bottles I have on my person, clean toys, bowls, and beds for dog’s and owner’s hygiene health. Will go extra mile to make sure dogs (and cats too) are happy and healthy while in my care. I love animals and it would be a pleasure to interact with every one. PLEASE NOTE: service charges have increased due to high demand and Rover keeping part of my proceeds.

I really appreciate Christina, she's great with my dog and treats her like her own and provides updates throughout the stay. She picks up after herself and leaves the house clean.

Christina was super flexible with us and our last minute booking. She always showed up on time and took the dogs for the entire time booked. We would definitely book again!

I have huskies that are incredibly active and affectionate, they’re spunk and attitude is lively and needs someone who’s able to adapt and problem solve on the fly. They’re too smart for their own good and will continually challenge you, they definitely keep you on your toes. Be mindful, they are escape artists who will temp the idea if you give them the chance. Other than that they are sweet loving babies to adore.
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.
