About: As a lifelong dog lover, I recently said goodbye to my beloved Yorkshire Terrier of 15 years.

Having cared for my Yorkshire Terrier through all 15 years of his life—from energetic puppy days to his gentle senior years—I understand how to adapt to different life stages and temperaments. I'll follow your pet's established schedule for feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while giving them plenty of love and attention. I'm comfortable with everything from administering medications to managing special dietary needs, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home.

I couldn’t be happier with the care Chris provided for Bella! From the moment I reached out, he was super responsive, professional, and clearly loves animals. He took the time to ask all the right questions to make sure he understood Bella's needs and routines, which made me feel really confident about leaving her with him. Chris sent me photos and updates and Bella looked so happy on her walk, so it really put my mind at ease. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog walker or sitter, you should definitely reach out to Chris! I'll definitely be asking him to help with Bella in the future for walks and when I have to go out of town! Thanks, Chris!
