Information Christine L. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me before hand if your pet has special needs or needs anything in particular. I am experienced in administering cats with insulin shots and have given medicine to dogs plenty of times. Also, please either update the care info section in Rover about your pets schedule and important information, or write it down or send in a message to me before the booking. I have a lot of clients and I unfortunately can not always remember every detail about everyone’s individual pets needs (I.e., specific breakfast/dinner times, length of walks, when to be crated, etc.). It helps me a lot in the long run. Thank you in advance!

A typical day

I love playing with pets! Even when I finish up everything that needs to be done, I will happily spend the rest of my time playing with your fur baby!

Pet care experience

New to Rover? Is this your first time booking? Book with me and I’ll give you $20 off your first booking! Important to know: 🐾*STARTING ON REQUESTS AFTER 1/10/25* - Constant care house sitting (pets that can’t be left alone for more than 4 hours) will be charged an extra daily rate equivalent to the holiday rate. I’ve been petting sitting for 7 years now and it has been one of the most rewarding and fun jobs I’ve ever had. I treat every pet like my own. Our pets are our family and it can be stressful leaving them with someone else while you’re gone, I want to always make sure to make that as stress free as possible! I absolutely love animals, especially dogs. My older sister is a veterinarian and used to groom dogs and she used to let me help her out and play with the dogs to calm them down. I was also able to walk them when needed as well. I've always loved dogs and I will treat yours as if it was my own. If your pet has any special requirements or needs please let me know in advance. I'm very easy to work with and I will try my hardest to make you and your pet happy. I am also available to look after any more pets you have such as reptiles, birds, etc. I work with any and all animals! I’m not scared of any of them! Snakes, rats, spiders, birds, you name it. I’ll treat them like my own. Thank you for taking the time to read this! I look forward to work with you and your furry friend!

Christine is absolutely our sitter of choice! She is wonderful with our dog and respectful of our home. Reliable and a good communicator. Always willing to help with things such as rolling the trash cans back from the street or adding water to a house plant. Really appreciate her!

Christine is an amazing sitter. I never have to worry when she’s watching Rocky & Laika. She communicates well and takes excellent care of our dogs.
