Safety, trust & environment

I currently don’t have any animals of my own and would love to focus on yours! If I’m house sitting and your pup or kitty likes field trips and mixing things up, and it’s appropriate, we may go on a safe adventure . We sometimes stop over to my place and hike the forest next door , or some other cool trail on the island , or perhaps hit the beach, or a dog friendly store for treats. Otherwise we stick to your neighborhood and routine.

Christine was excellent with our dog and cat. She sent photos/ videos and went the extra mile to make sure they were well cared for!

Christine took wonderful care of my 2 pugs, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She is incredibly responsible and respectful of our home, and genuinely warm with both people and pets. Since we travel lots with our kids for their various sporting events she has been reliable and treats my dogs like her own. My pugs were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for while she is with them. Christine communicates well, followed instructions with our elderly pug medications and special needs. I absolutely trust her with animals and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, loving care.

Schedule

My typical day M-F has work meetings and projects. This allows for flexibility to play with your pet, offer snuggles, and get outside! Weekends are low key for me and can generally flex to make things work best for your needs.

Christine can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I want to know what their typical day and routine is like, what their play style is, what kind of training they’ve had and what your expectations about their behavior—Some pups like to pretend they don’t know anything and test when they meet a new person 😆. If I’m housesitting I’ll want to know your house rules and preferences. If we’re taking walks, I’ll want to know the areas of your neighborhood that may make the dog happy or stressed.
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.
