CT Dog Hero: Safe and Trusted Care
CT Dog Hero is designed for dogs to have fun in a safe, structured environment with consistent supervision — building real trust through calm, steady leadership. My late pups couldn’t thrive in large warehouse facilities, so I created a small-group alternative where dogs receive enriching attention without becoming overwhelmed. I bring 20+ years of hands-on experience working with high-energy dogs, anxious rescues, seniors, and special-needs pups. My focus includes: • Positive reinforcement with balanced structure • Senior and mobility-aware care • Recognizing stress signals before they escalate • Calm, controlled group dynamic CT Dog Hero is built on calm leadership, thoughtful structure, and hands on care.

Ratings and reviews
Chris is great! I was worried bc my 1 year old golden retriever has tons of energy and sometimes other dogs have a issue with that but Chris send me quite a few pics over the weekend and said my baby did great with the pack! She looked very happy…love the dogs have freedom around his house and the big yard! I definitely recommend!!
We had a wonderful experience! Our dog was well cared for, and it was clear he was happy and comfortable during the stay. We appreciated the updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’d definitely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
Walter had a wonderful stay with Chris while we were out of town. Chris was sure to send regular photo updates of fun playtime with the rest of the pack as well as Walter's regular naps. We're hoping Walter can stay again sometime.
Chris and his wife care so much about the animals, It definitely shows. Roxy has such a good time over there. She loves the big backyard and playing with the other dogs.
We have used Chris for several years now! He is a great communicator and timely. Thanks Chris!
My dogs were very happy at Chez Chris!
