Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Every morning, I start by feeding my pets and ensuring they have fresh water. Throughout the day, I make time for play and exercise, such as walks or interactive play sessions. I also dedicate time to grooming, whether it's brushing their fur or cleaning their living area. Additionally, I schedule regular vet visits and ensure their vaccinations and health check-ups are up to date. Pet care is a priority for me, and I make sure to provide them with the love, attention, and care they need.

Safety, trust & environment
Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency.

I respect each pet’s routine, offer plenty of attention and play, and keep owners updated to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.

Information Christine M. would like to know about your pet
To provide the best care possible, there are a few key things I like to know ahead of time: 1. Medical History – Any health conditions, allergies, or medications the dog needs. 2. Temperament – Their personality, energy level, fears, and how they typically behave. 3. Feeding Routine – Diet details, meal schedule, and any restrictions. 4. Exercise Needs – How much activity they’re used to and what they enjoy. 5. Commands & Cues – Any words or routines they’re familiar with for smoother communication. 6. Social Preferences – How they interact with other dogs or pets. 7. Emergency Info – Contact details for you and your vet in case of any issues. Having this information up front helps me tailor care to each dog’s needs and ensure a safe, calm, and happy stay.
A typical day
A typical day in my care includes a mix of walks, playtime, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. Mornings start with breakfast and outdoor time, followed by a walk—either around the neighborhood or at a nearby dog-friendly park or trail. I tailor activities to each dog’s energy level, personality, and the owner’s instructions. We might play fetch, tug-of-war, or explore new environments to keep things interesting. I also make sure there’s plenty of time for rest, with cozy spots for relaxation and fresh water always available. My goal is to make each day safe, fun, and enriching—so your dog feels happy, calm, and well cared for while you’re away.

Hi, I’m Christine! I’ve been a pet sitter on Rover for over 3 years and absolutely love caring for animals. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles, I make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.
Reviews
Christine was absolutely wonderful, she was very timely, organized, tons of communication leading up to our trip and that continued while we were gone. She gave us frequent updates with tons of pictures. It was a great experience for us and our 3 animals. Would use her again 100%, I would highly recommend to anyone.
Extremely conscientious and cares about the dogs immensely. Her level of attention and detail in her updates makes the experience of entrusting your pet an easy experience.
A truly remarkable experience. Our very first time leaving our puppy at home with anyone other than family. It was an immediate positive experience from the first time we met Christina .Our puppy, who is naturally apprehensive about anyone new, took to Christine naturally and immediately. While we were gone we received regular updates with photos and videos. It put us at ease knowing she was at our house. She also left the house extremely clean. I cannot wait to use her again. A+++++
Love love love Christine! This is our 2nd time having her sit for our cat. She does such an excellent job sending photos and noting all she’s done. It’s such a good feeling knowing our baby is cared for and loved by her while we’re gone ❤️
