“Shes a great communicator but most importantly took care of my pets like theyre her own. I never doubted my pets were well cared for and thats the most important thing!”


“Erin instantly made us feel comfortable leaving our 3 kitties for a week. She offered to come meet us and the cats before booking, and we loved her. One of our cats takes time to build trust and sometimes won’t eat for a bit while we’re away. Erin took the time to build a relationship with her and tried a few different things to help her feel comfortable eating for someone new. Erin spent time with all three cats, played with them, and helped them feel comfortable trusting her. We got pictures after every visit, and excellent communication about how they were doing. Our selective eater was coming out of hiding and eating her food consistently much quicker than she has for others who have come to feed them while we were away. Erin went above and beyond for our babies and made us feel so much better about being away from them. We have already rebooked with her for another trip. Thank you for much for everything, Erin!!!”

About: I have volunteered at the Cleveland Animal Protective League as a cat adoption specialist for the last 2 years. I know what you’re thinking- Cleveland? Yep! But I’m making the big move to the New Haven area to start a life with my boyfriend who moved last year to start a job as a professor. I work a fully remote job in cancer research (available for quick day time visits!). Back to cats- as an adoption specialist at a high volume shelter, I have interacted with HUNDREDS of cats and kittens. I have experience with FELV, FIV, CH, limb differences, cats rescued from unfortunate situations, chronic grumpy disease (my favorite), chronic scaredy cat disease, etc. I would love nothing more than to meet your cat and scoop their poop 😄😉 I work from home and have a very flexible schedule! Let me love on your fur babies while you’re away at the office! I’m happy to stop by as many times as you need. I promise to treat your fur babies as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness is my number one concern. Only good vibes.
About: I’ve grown up with all types of animals my entire life. From dogs and cats to birdies and bunnies, I love them all! I have been blessed to share life with my yorkie-poo for the past 14 years. I’ve had to learn how to give him daily oral medications, eye drops and ear drops to keep him healthy and lively! I’d give the same love, care and attention to your fur babies as well! I am a school bus driver so from the hours of 6-10:30am and 1:30-4:30pm I am unavailable. However, I am quick to respond to any availability scheduling questions you make have! I currently live in a house with a brick-fenced in yard with 1 social senior pup (who doesn’t mind to be crated if need be) however I would love to care for your pet wherever they feel comfortable!

When caring for pets in my home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and welcome. I keep a clean and calm environment, follow their normal feeding and bathroom routines, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise.

Whether they’re energetic and playful or prefer to relax and stay close to me, I want them to feel like they’re in a home where they’re genuinely cared for.
“Christine did an excellent job taking care of my cat for two weeks. She came to my home every morning and evening to feed, care for and play with the 8 month old kitten. I got pictures on the Rover site for every visit, giving me comfort that my cat was being well cared for. I could see how comfortable he was with Christine, to the point of nuzzling up to snooze in her coat! I highly recommend that you use Christine to care for your pet. I certainly plan to use her again for the peace of mind knowing that my cat is happy and has a reliable caregiver.”
