Absolutely amazing! This was my first time trying Rover and I look forward to using it again! Christina was amazing and responded quickly to my very short notice request. She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!

Christina did such a great job with my senior chihuahua. She was very communicative, sent pictures and updates often, and responded to all of my messages. The house was just how I left it when I returned. I would definitely recommend Christina!

Highly recommend! I was nervous to leave my dogs with a sitter but Christina put me at ease right away. She took amazing care of my not so easy dogs. She knew exactly what to do if my dog had a seizure. My dogs loved her! She also took amazing care of my home during a surprise snow storm. I will utilizing her services again.
