Major dog-loving household!

Pet care experience

My boyfriend, Michael, and I live together and are ready to provide your dog with PLENTY of love and care for his/her time with us! We love dogs, and we actually recently adopted one of our own! Her name is Ellie and she loves other dogs. We're looking forward to having another canine buddy! We've had experience pup-sitting for friends and family, have fostered for Family Dog Rescue in SF, and have watched hours of dog-training videos. We also love photography, so if you're also in need of pup-headshots, someone to keep up your pup's Instagram page, or just want to keep up with photo updates while you're away, we're the ones for the job. ;) We're hoping to create lasting relationships with the dogs we care for and would love to continue the relationship whenever they need a home away from home!

Christine and Michael were the most patient and kind Rover sitters to work with. At first, our Whipple was a little panicked about being away from home, but Christine and Michael were easy going and helped him adjust like pros. We really appreciated the communication and the beautiful photos they took. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Christine and Michael are such a sweet couple. They clearly love dogs and I felt so comfortable leaving my fur baby with them. They gave me plenty of updates and even some professional looking beautiful photos. I would love to have them look after Bobo again.

Christine and Michael are the best! My original dog nanny sprained her ankle and was unable to take care of my 60lb german shepherd mix. All the doggy hotels and daycares I found on yelp were booked out and I started to panic! I've heard some scary stories about Rover and was extremely hesitant to use it for my precious baby. I scrolled through Rover profiles for HOURS and reached out to some people who responded, but said they were actually unavailable (understandable, given how last minute I was). Christine responded quickly and even agreed to do a meet and greet at 9:30pm that night! My pup, who has issues with strangers (especially men), LOVED them! Christine sent me tons of pictures and videos of my dear Bucky. He looked so happy! On the day my sister picked him up, he did not want to get into the car and whimpered on the ride home. I am extremely grateful for these guys and I will be sending Bucky to them for as long as they let me! Christine is an extremely detail oriented, flexible, kind, down-to-earth, DOG LOVER! She's also bombtastic at taking gorgeous photos of my pup. Book them!

Christine took care of my rambunctious 15 week old pup, Archie, for the weekend. She sent me videos and photos the over the weekend which made me feel so much more comfortable. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a detail oriented, dog lover to take care of your dog!

Information Christine & Michael N. would like to know about your pet

Things to know beforehand: - Does your dog get along with other dogs? We have a pup of our own! :) - Does your dog bark/whine loudly for prolonged periods of time? - Does your dog have separation anxiety (from pet-parents/sitters)? - Is your dog house-trained? What's their usual potty schedule? - What motivates your dog? Food/toys? - Is there specific training/commands you'd like us to upkeep while you're away? Breed preferences: We personally love all dogs, especially pitbulls and german shepherds, but unfortunately our apartment complex does not allow dogs of those breeds, so we won't be able to pup-sit for pitbulls or german shepherds :(

A typical day

We love to walk around and explore downtown Redwood City, but we also love to jog at nearby parks. There's a great dog park a few blocks from our place, and we love to go there with our pup, Ellie! At home, we love to cuddle up on the couch with a pup (that's the dream, right?) while we relax after a day of fun!
