Availability

I care for pets full-time, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and boarding. Dogs staying in my home receive regular potty breaks, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. Because my schedule is flexible, I can accommodate morning, midday, and evening needs and will adapt to your dog’s routine so their schedule stays as consistent as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize a calm, safe environment for every dog in my care. I intentionally board dogs from only one household so each dog receives individual attention and a lower-stress environment compared to high-volume boarding homes. I have my own friendly dog, and I always ensure dogs are a good temperament match before confirming a stay. Meet-and-greets are encouraged so both dogs can become comfortable before the booking. I carefully follow each dog’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medications or special instructions provided by the owner. Safety and consistency are always my top priorities.

Information Christina W. would like to know about your pet

Before booking, it’s helpful to know your dog’s: • energy level and exercise needs • comfort level with other dogs • feeding schedule • any medications or medical needs • any behavioral quirks or triggers The more information you can provide, the better I can make sure your dog has a safe and comfortable stay.

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of outdoor time in my fenced-in backyard, walks, playtime, treats (if allowed), and relaxing inside my home. I adjust the day based on each dog’s energy level and preferences; some dogs enjoy longer walks and lots of play sessions, while others prefer a slower pace and lots of affection. Dogs staying with me are treated like family and are included in the daily routine. I also send regular updates and photos so you can see how your dog is doing while you’re away.

Reliable, Personalized Pet Care

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs at every stage of life, from newborn puppies to senior dogs requiring extra care. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions when needed. I also have experience working with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as separation anxiety, resource guarding, and reactivity. While I’m not a certified trainer, I’m very familiar with canine body language and believe strongly in calm, consistent handling. I’ve helped puppies learn leash walking, basic obedience commands (sit, stay, down, etc.), and have supported owners during early potty-training stages. For boarding, I do require that dogs are already potty trained so they can comfortably integrate into the household routine. Exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis for an additional cost. My goal is always to create a calm, safe environment where each dog feels comfortable and well cared for.

Rover did not put our dog back in her crate after walking her, as instructed. Left our puppy out with full access to the house. We came back to a disaster. She ingested human food and a cat toy, and damaged property. Incredibly concerned for our dog’s safety. Incredibly upset.

Christina took such great care of our two dogs while we were away for a weekend! She sent regular photo updates, and the photos showed they were clearly relaxed with her on the first day, which was very reassuring for us to see! Highly recommend and will use her services again!

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.
