Safety, trust & environment

I will adhere to standards of wishes of pet owners (not sleeping on sofas/beds, returning to a crate etc) to keep pets safe and secure. Our dogs were crate trained and our current one will responds to the command of “go to bed”. I believe the safety and comfort of your pets - and any they come in contact with on walks - is top priority.

Information Christine T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your pet has any special needs or considerations. I also like to reward positive behavior with treats or play time. I will confirm that either/both of these rewards are okay before providing service.

A typical day

I find that dogs have their own timeline and consistency for all ages is key so they know what to expect when they see me. First and foremost is to “do their business” then move on to playtime activities the owner says they enjoy. Walking, fetching, small training sessions or even cozy snuggles are my specialty.

Trustworthy pet (and kid!) mom

Pet care experience

For 20+ years I’ve bounced around and helped take care of pets of all sizes for family, friends and neighbors. Now looking to expand on that by joining Rover to help fulfill some personal goals as all of my children (3 furry and 1 human) are getting older. I have puppy experience and took training classes to help with consistency, potty habits and positive reinforcement for each of the puppies we adopted. Last year, our 10-year-old lab mix became blind, and I have learned to navigate this next chapter with her. We currently have one dog and two cats (one lazy, one feisty!) - and often times all will be found snuggling close on the sofa or in bed with me.

Christine has been wonderful with my elderly, shy kitty. I've been very pleased to work with her on multiple occasions. She is responsible, trustworthy, professional and caring.

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.
