House Sitting • Jan 05, 2026

Chris was very responsive and communicative! Our dog is a 1+ year old pit who has been with us for less than a year, so we were anxious about subjecting someone else to his energy and antics. This was our first time leaving him home for more than a few hours, but all went well! Plenty of pictures from his walks and cuddles, and the house was in great shape too.

This was our 2nd time having Chris cat sit for us and he did a great job once again. Chris is so responsive and responsible, made friends with our shy cat, and seems to thoroughly enjoy spending time with our little guys. Would definitely recommend!

This was our first time having Chris take care of our 2 cats and we couldn't be happier. Chris did a great job, very responsive to our texts and sent daily pictures. One of our cats is very friendly, the other very shy and Chris made the extra effort to make our cat get comfortable with him and by the 2nd day he was doing head rubs with him! Would highly recommend Chris and we hope to use him again a little later this summer!

Chris took such good care of our dogs. During our initial meeting, he asked follow up questions so that he clearly understood the feeding routine. He asked other questions that let us know he read the profile ahead of time. His daily updates provided excellent information and great photos. We are so happy for what Chris did. We highly recommend him. We will always check his availability when we are going out of town.
