Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced, caring vet tech
I am a vet tech with many years of experience. I have a passion for providing the best care I can to every pet I meet. I enjoy spend time with animals of all kinds. I have experience with pocket pets and exotics as well. I have a lot of experience handling all sizes and temperments of pets. I am able to give all forms of medications, including insulin and subcutaneous fluids. I have 2 dogs and four cats at home. My first few photos are of my pets and the rest are of pets I have taken care of in the past.

Ratings and reviews
Christy takes good care of our boys and checked in on them while we were gone! It was great peace of mind for us. Our old guy lives her and the puppy loved the play and interaction.
Christy did a great job with my cat Linus. I highly recommend her!
Christy was great with our animals. She looked after them and handled all their personalities! She communicated very well and gave routine updates. Will hire her again!
Our pets seem to have been well taken care of by Christy, which is, of course, the most important thing. However, our house was not left as we expected it to be, which was disappointing: the sheets were taken off the bed and put in the washer, but the washer had not been started. The bedroom was quite disheveled. Since we arrived home at 6:00 PM, it would have been nice to have that laundry at least started. She had borrowed a fan from an upstairs bedroom where we told her it was located, and she left it at the bottom of the stairs, which seemed odd as she knew where she had gotten it. Our biggest complaint is with Rover's billing policy: we booked Christy from July 6th to the 12th, and Rover considered July 6th to be a holiday. We were billed for the 6th as a holiday (meaning 150% of the usual charge) and Christy did not arrive at our house until past 9:00 PM that night. Luckily we had fed our dogs before we left at 5:00 PM that night, but we were not happy that she didn't get to our house until four hours after we had left. We were charged for the full day PLUS 50% since it was considered a holiday, but she didn't even get to our house until past 9:00 PM! That does not seem right to us!
Christy is great! Takes amazing care of my boys; including my older boy who is a bit high maintenance.
Christy is great! She took such great care of my boys - who are a little high maintenance, to say the least. Sent me cute photos- she’s amazing!!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I typically stay overnight at a client's house to give some continuity to the pet. I can take pets to the vet and am comfortable medicating cats and dogs.

A typical day
I typically will do whatever the owner suggests that the dog likes to do. I follow feeding and medication schedules and walk dogs as needed.
