Pet care experience

Wag-Worthy Walks & Snuggles

I cared for my yellow Labrador, Sparky, for 12 years. From puppyhood to his senior years, our daily walks, playtime, and belly rubs were some of my favorite ways to connect and spend quality time together. Over the years, friends, family members and neighbors have also trusted me to care for their pets while they were away. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship during vacations, I’ve always treated every pet like my own, with patience and love. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your furry family member, and I’m here to provide that peace of mind.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care I would my own. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine in a familiar environment, and I always aim to create a calm, comfortable, and safe experience. During visits, I follow your instructions closely, ensure your pet is fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, and keep you updated with regular check-ins. Daily walks were one of my favorite bonding activities with my dog, Sparky, so I truly understand how important they are for both physical health and mental stimulation. Whether your pup loves a leisurely stroll or a more energetic walk, I tailor each outing to their pace and personality. Safety is my top priority. I make sure the leash is secure, stay alert to surroundings making sure it is a safe area to walk in, and follow your dog’s routine and preferences. I make sure walks are not only safe but also enjoyable, giving your dog a chance to explore, exercise and return home happy and relaxed.

Christine was beyond amazing!!! We attended our son's wedding weekend and did not want to leave our 14 year old dog alone as she gets anxious. Christine readily accommodated our split shifts needs and was very much liked by all of our family staying at the hotel. The true testament to her goodness and her love of pets is when she came to our hotel our dog got so excited, wagged her tail non- stop and jumped with excitement after meeting with her for the third time. Our dog treated Christine like she was family and that is the type of person she is. Christine made us very comfortable and our dog even more. I will highly recommend and will ask Christine again to stqy with our dog. Christine is AWESOME!!!!

Christine was great watching our dog, Ozzy! Ozzy can have stranger danger and Christine did a great job managing this. He was so well taken care of and so was our apartment. I highly recommend Christine.

Christine is so wonderful with pets! She has cared for both cats and dogs for extended periods of time and they love her so much they don’t want her to leave. You can trust her to follow all needs and preferences as instructed. You will have peace of mind knowing Christine is taking care of your pet : )

For as long as I have known Christine she has been a dog lover and owner. She makes a very caring and responsible dog sitter/walker due to her nurturing qualities. There has been many times where Christine cared for my family’s dog and I truly recommend her as a dog sitter/walker- your furry ones will be in excellent company!

To give your pet the best possible care, I like to learn as much as I can ahead of time. Some helpful things to know include: - Daily routine: feeding schedule, potty breaks, walk preferences and sleep habits - Temperament: how they behave around new people, other dogs, or in unfamiliar environments - Triggers or fears: loud noises, separation anxiety, storms, etc. - Health needs: allergics, medications, dietary restrictions, or mobility issues - Favorite activities or toys: what makes your pet happy and makes them feel comfortable
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.
