Safety, trust & environment

As a cat mom who relies on sitters when I'm gone, I know the importance of providing pet parents with timely updates about their pet. For all pets, I will keep you in the loop by sending you pictures, videos, as well as updates about your pets. For dogs specifically, I confer with clients about where they prefer I walk their dog, and I avoid other dogs during walks to prevent altercations. For cats, I keep them indoors and prevent them from jumping onto places like kitchen counters (and any other places you don't allow them in) to ensure they don't get injured.

Pet care experience

I took care of cats and dogs all my life, and I'm a devoted cat mom. During the last 10 years, I've been petsitting semi-professionally for family and friends. I have experience walking small and large dogs, giving oral medication, and taking care of pets overnight.

Kristina was an amazing sitter for our fur baby! She maintained great communication throughout our 5-day vacation and regularly sent photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly exceeded our expectations with the love, care, and attention she provided. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, loving, high-quality care for their pets.

Kristina was absolutely fantastic and both of our pets fell instantly in love with her, of course. ♥️♥️ It’s not easy to find a sitter who is equally great with dogs and cats and we feel very fortunate to have met Kristina. On the very first evening both Penny (old lady rescue cat) and Putney (wild child Labrador) curled up on the sofa with her, already Kristina’s biggest fans. Kristina methodically followed care instructions, sent beautiful photos, and was a perfect houseguest. She is the perfect pet sitter and we can’t wait to have her back.

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.
