Pet care experience

Cats and dogs need the love

Years of experience have taught me that patience is the easiest way to win an animals heart. Whatever temperament your pet may have, I'm ready for it. With over 18 years of experience in martial arts, no size animal scares me, and they all deserve love. I've accrued years of time spent with elderly dogs, new puppies, skittish kittens, and jaded cats. All of them have allowed me to earn their trust once they've seen me put in the time to show them compassion. I regularly cuddle dogs and give them an overwhelming sense of affection and love. Under my watch, your dogs will always feel loved and cared for. Every dog I meet I can connect with. If it takes time, I’m a patient person, and will take that time to let your dog feel comfortable with me. Not every cat will be open to new people, which is fine. Their territory deserves respect, and i have earned the trust of even the most territorial kitties when given the time. If your animal child needs activity, I'm well versed in many forms of play time. I'll help your cat get their hunting time, or your dog to run up, down, and around the block with me. I also pay attention to their poop, which is the most indicative tell of their health. If it’s a regular walker you need, I can work through the morning and afternoon. My weekends are usually meant for my family ,but I always can make time for pets. If you do enjoy my work, I’m happy to talk about the schedule with you. All dogs need a good routine, just like people. I hope we get to work together to make your dogs life a wonderful one.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a general routine I go through during visits: Carefully enter, allow time for sniffs and greetings, animal chores, walk when needed, feed as scheduled, say goodbyes. Not necessarily in that order.

Absolutely clutchy-mc-clutch. When another sitter bailed last minute (despite having been booked a month prior) Chris found time to come by to meet me, my terrible/wonderful beasties, and was a 100 percent reliable and clear communicator during his visits. The reviews below are absolutely accurate - if he serves your area and is available, book him without hesitation.

Schedule

I’m open to new clients but as I have been starting to get more bookings I might need to say no when I feel I can’t make the time for a guaranteed quality visit. That’s not too often.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Chris can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Does the dog have history of bites? Do you have a strict form of behavior training? Does your dog need cuddles? How often does your dog go to the park? What are the pupper’s favorite games?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
