Please let me know if there is anything I need to know about your dog, such as feeding and potty schedule, allergies, or quirks I should know about! We look forward to meeting you and your pup!

A typical day

We love to go on walks and live near a forested path. I have 2 teens that LOVE dogs and will give your pets tons of playtime! Our labradoodle loves playing with other dogs. Our dog is crated when we are not home so dogs will only have access to each other when they can be supervised.

We love pets!

Pet care experience

I love animals and have had pets all my life, including lizards, birds, fish, cats and dogs! We currently have a cat, labradoodle and 2 bearded dragons. We started pet sitting on Rover after our elderly diabetic dog passed away. I am knowledgeable and comfortable providing diabetic care and giving insulin shots. Your pet will be treated as our own and given lots of love and attention. Our dog, Oliver, loves playing with other dogs, but will also leave them alone if they aren't interested.

We have used Kristine for our senior cat for about 4 years now and wouldn’t use anyone else! She is very professional, timely, communicative and most importantly, she gives our cat a lot o love and care 🙂

Arlo had a great time with Kristine and her family! Communication was clear and we received several photos and updates while we were away. It was great to know he was safe and happy while we were traveling!

Great sitter. Good communication. She even dropped the dog off to me at the end which was a pleasant surprise.

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.
