Pet care experience

Experienced, Caring, & Reliable

I've been around many types of animals all my life, & especially over the past 40 years having various types of dogs & cats lovingly cared for in my home as an additional member of our family. Some were puppies & kittens & most were all rescues who all brought us many years of joy & happiness until the inevitable sad time came for them to cross over the Rainbow Bridge. Let me help bring a stress free time for both you and your pet during your time of separation, and put your mind at ease, whether your travel is for a family emergency, an event, or a vacation. I'll even provide you with periodic communications & photos to help ease your mind.

I prefer to pet sit in your home because it's less stress on your fur babies since they'll be in the surroundings they're used too.

Christine did her usual wonderful job taking care of our Bobby. She has such patience with our almost 15 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She is very responsible and reliable! We so appreciate her and highly recommend her as a petsitter/housesitter.

Christine was so kind to take care of our puppy last minute! She updated us during the day about how it was going and left a really nice note with more info about what they did during the day. Thank you, Christine!

We were on vacation for a week and we have never left our 2 dogs with anyone but family. However, this time we could not, so we tried Rover and met Christine. I knew from our meet and greet that our girls were in good hand. The girls immediately took to Christine and so did we. Christine took care of our girls so well and sent us updates. We would definitely have her back anytime to take care of our girls. Thank you Christine! Our vacation was so much better knowing our girls were in safe hands.

Christine was absolutely wonderful! I have a senior dog and a quirky dog and she took care of them exactly how they needed! I was able to enjoy myself knowing they were in great hands. It was like having a trusted family member watching them.

Christine is amazing. She took the best care of my pup while I was gone and I had a carefree trip away knowing she was in good hands.

Schedule

I'm retired now & I've been pet sitting cats, & dogs for other family members, friends, & neighbors. Including dog walking to help my neighbors out with their fur babies when they knew they were going to have a long day @ work.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Christine can host up to 1 pet per night
I always ask if any medications are needed, the dosage, & frequencies & a schedule of daily feeding times (& qty). Also if their water is tap, or bottled. Whats their daily schedule of walking times & routines are. Are they comfortable around other dogs & people that we may encounter on their walk. Are they typically crated @ night, or do they sleep in their own bed, or with you. Have they had any obedience, walking, or command training bcuz I cannot handle walking a large dog that pulls.
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.
