Information Krista A. would like to know about your pet

For us, it's really important to know the temperament of the animal (like if they don't like children, so we can be aware of how we handle them on a walk), or if they are nervous around new people (so we can manage how we enter the home and introduce myself), etc. It's also essential that we know if they have any favorite toys, games, routines, or sensitivities (i.e., don't pet behind their ears b/c they nip, etc.)

A typical day

Walks will depend on the area, but if we're house-sitting with a pet, we prefer stay around their neighborhood for the familiarity. Would also play fetch (if that is their jam) and anything that can help run off some of their energy. Lots of pets, belly rubs, and head scratches.

Pet care experience

Krista has taken care of animals throughout her whole life, starting with guinea pigs as a child. She has sat a number of family and friend's dogs and cats over the years, having helped with walking, feeding, and providing overall attention to their fur-babies. Karim has grown up with animals his whole life - cats and dogs. He gives extra care and attention to every pet in his care and makes sure they feel comfortable and loved all of the time!

Krista was absolutely amazing as a sitter! She was great at communicating and sending me updates throughout the day. She was also able to fulfill the exercise needs of Ralph throughout the day. I know Ralph was well taken care of with Krista. I would highly recommend Krista as a sitter!

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.
