Information Christine W. would like to know about your pet

It helps me to learn about your pets routine, favorite activities, feeding schedule, personality, and any special needs before their stay. Knowing what makes them feel comfortable helps me maintain consistency and ensure they feel safe and happy

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I tailor activities to their personality and energy level. We enjoy walks, playtime, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and plenty of attention. My goal is to make their stay feel fun, comfortable, and stress free.

Experienced Pet Care Professional

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Christine, a professional pet care specialist with over 15 years of experience working with dogs, cats, and small animals. In my early 20s I worked as a vet tech until I opened my own pet grooming salon. I operated that salon for 12 years before transitioning careers. My background includes professional grooming, animal handling, pet behavior, and pet first aid. I provide dependable, compassionate care and understand that every pet has unique needs. I hold certifications in pet CPR & First Aid. In 2025 I received certification in feline safety through the Intellectual Groomers Association. NOTE: I am currently set up to care for small dogs, cats, and small animals. I am NOT set up to accommodate large dogs at this time

Christine was a DREAM with my Birdie! From the beginning she was so nice and accommodating, even allowing me to lengthen my booking when plans changed. 1000% amazing!

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.
