Over 35 Years of Experience!

***If my calendar does not show availability for the dates you need please send a message, as I may still be available for the particular service you require. Please note that rates may vary, depending on additional needs and/or distance.*** I have 35+ years of experience working with animals in training, behavioral, veterinary and other care settings and offer personalized, detailed care tailored to suit your needs. I enjoy getting to know my clients, their animals and their needs, can handle any species and details, and nearly any care plan (depending on schedule --Just ask!). We'll work together to develop a strategy from there, whether for a long-term plan or for your night away. I have a significant amount of behavioral experience and can pick up on any number of subtle cues from animals very easily in order to identify potential issues and provide solutions, whether with issues that may come up during a change (such as the change of your time away), or if you need behavioral insight on your own time.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and security are of utmost importance! I check gates and locks routinely, as well as any fencelines to ensure your pets' yard safety. I am diligent when entering and exiting a home, stringent on medication routines and will also bring in any packages at your door. I can also bring in your mail, leave certain lights on, handle trash days, watch for gardeners/housekeepers/pool maintenance, etc.

Christine did a house sit for my two little old lady Chihuahuas for nearly two weeks. Lots of updates and photos provided. She left my home in better condition than when I left. My girls are happy and enjoyed their time with Christine

There just arn't enough thank you's for the peace of mind that Christine gives us while we travel! Always up to date with the latest shenanigans the girls are doing and we know that they are safe and well cared for. They even get extra cuddles! Not to mention the house always is spotless when we get home and even the plants are cared for. Can't thank you enough Christine!!! We appreciate you SO much!

I had a fantastic experience with Christine and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. From the start, she was professional, communicative, and clearly attentive and caring. She kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She also took great care of the house, leaving everything just as how it was left. I truly appreciate the level of responsibility and kindness she showed. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

I'll take in as many details as you'd like to give; never feel bad about what might feel like too much information. What do they like/dislike? How are they with new people? What is their daily routine? Favorites? Habits? In turn, I'll give plenty of feedback, including insight as to any behaviors I may see in your absence. :-)
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.
