Fitness Geek and Dog lover!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Christine. I am an energetic animal lover who is also studying acting in the city. I have my own dog walking business based in Prospect Heights and am mainly using Rover as a way to connect to owners who need boards. I am quite athletic (I'm a trained martial artist) but also highly intuitive, gentle, and empathic person who is receptive to anxious behaviour in animals. If you are looking for someone to dog sit, I am happy to meet you before hand to introduce myself!

Christine is an excellent Rover. She is very responsive, efficient and communicative and has helped me out by looking after my pet multiple times during weekends and holidays. Everything is taken care of with Christine.

Christine has taken excellent care of my two pitbulls, Lola and Cupcake. She followed my exact schedule and sent so many cute photos - my dogs completely adore her! Christine is the only person I trust to leave my dog with and I can't thank her enough for the job she does when I'm traveling. She's always the first person I reach out to for dog sitting when I'm away.

Safety, trust & environment

For every board I've hosted up so far, I try to be physically near the pet as much as I can. While I still do go out, I try to limit time out (less inclined to go out to bars on a Friday night for example). Every dog has slept in bed with me (lol) and there is a futon in my office area that they can snooze while I spend hours working on the computer.

Information Christine L. would like to know about your pet

Mostly every dog I meet has their own quirks. Please let me know what your dog's are and perhaps we can be a good match. Are they good with other dogs? Are the good with other people? This is important because I may potentially house more than one dog at time. (While I have space to separate them if need be)

A typical day

There is a tennis court and park nearby that I like to bring dogs to when I board. I also have three levels in my house and like to play fetch up and down stairs.

I have my own dog walking business and live with family, so when I do board dogs I usually am home in time for an afternoon and evening walk. However on days I'm not, I have a family member help me out.
