Working Musician great with Pets!

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs and taking care of them since I was a little kid. As a teen I was the go-to dog-sitter in my neighborhood whenever neighbors left town. My parents worked a lot as a kid and as a result I played a big role in training and caring for our family dog, Sage. Now I often take care of my friend's various pets when they are not available!

Chris checked in on our two dogs on a Saturday evening and was very responsive to our requests and with providing an update on how they were doing. He clearly loves dogs and is great with them

Chris was an excellent house sitter. He patient with my timid dogs, easy to communicate with during the stay and followed instructions I left had for the dogs perfectly. I would recommend his services and will use him again.

Chris treated our cats and our home like his own. Thanks for looking after the gang! We appreciated the updates and the care that went in to checking in on our crew.

Safety, trust & environment

I am attentive and careful to follow all instructions that are given to me! I’ve been around dogs my whole life so I know how important routine is for some dogs and to pay attention to their body language and needs.

Information Chris B. would like to know about your pet

I like to know how active your pet is, what their daily routine is like, when they eat, what kind of treats they like, how well they do with other dogs while passing them on walks, what medications they have, what scares them or makes them uncomfortable so I know what to avoid. Any information you'd like to share about your pet is important information to me!

A typical day

I would love to take dogs for walks around the Mexican War Streets, in the Allegheny Commons park, and as well as the Union Dale Cemetery. I play tug-of-war, fetch or other games with dogs or just provide pets and cuddles if they prefer that!
