I love furry friends!
Pet care experience
Growing up, I helped my family raise cats and for the past 10 years, I’ve spoiled my dogs every day. A few years ago, my wife and I boarded dogs. One Christmas, we were caring for 11 dogs, not to mention our newborn baby. Currently, I have a senior beagle with special care needs and two active, adorable 2-year-old rescue dogs. I also have 2 cats, 4 chickens, and 2 mostly non-feral human children.
Reviews
Chris was great at accepting Stewie last minute. He sent us picture updates along with telling us what he’s (Stewie) been doing. Stewie came home happy and tired. Thank You Chris & family
Chris took care of our cats when we had to leave town for an emergency. He did a great job of caring for our cats. He stayed in touch with me after every visit to let me know how they were doing and he sent me pictures. I appreciate his care. I would hire him again.
I highly recommend Chris as a dog sitter! He and his family took care of my dogs Zoe and Daisy for 12 days and they had an amazing time. Chris was very professional and attentive to my dogs' needs, and sent me regular updates with pictures of their activities, which was really nice and reassuring. I could tell that Zoe and Daisy were in good hands and enjoying themselves. I really appreciate Chris' caring nature and attention to detail. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my girls! I will definitely use Chris' services again in the future.
My dog always has a blast with Chris and his fam. Very responsive and sends lots of cute photos!

Safety, trust & environment
My senior beagle lives a relaxed life of doggy retirement on our couch and, on sunny days, in the backyard. My other dogs love running around our big backyard. I’m comfortable taking care of any needs your dog or cat has, such as crating them, brushing them, and giving them meds.
Home
Information Chris R. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know if they’re good with other dogs, cats, and kids. Also want to know how old they are, energy levels, diet restrictions and medications (if any), favorite treats or toys, any known fears or anxieties (such as separation anxiety), and any special needs.
A typical day
I feed my 3 dogs and 2 cats and let the dogs out to go potty. Then they typically take naps in my office while I work. Potty break at noon. Then more play outside for a while before more treats and more naps.

Availability
I work M-F 9-5, so I’m available in the early mornings, midday, and at night. Usually available anytime on the weekends. I have 2 kids under the age of 7, so sometimes things come up which might cause a delay in my schedule, like if my child spills an entire smoothie on herself moments before we leave for a birthday party; that sort of thing. Given that, I can commit to roughly a 1-hour window, not a precise time, when I can drop in to check on your pets.
