I'd do this for free if I could

Pet care experience

I grew up in the area and moved back after many years away. I've raised 3 of my own dogs since they were a couple months over the last 2 decades and as you'll see by my reviews, I've got a good amount over overall Rover experience as well. I would love to still be able to pet sit at my place, but my current place is a lot smaller than what I used to have and my fiancée works from home (and has work calls throughout the day). So, I'd love to drop in for a visit, walk your dog, or even take care of your dog and/or cat at your place if you're in need (obviously, we can set up meeting(s) to make sure your comfortable no matter which service you're interested in). I am very comfortable with puppies, adult, and senior dogs equally, as well as administering oral meds (and accompanying treats). I even have professional dog walking experience, even if it was over 10 years ago, haha. I'm pretty flexible and easy going and I'm happy to help make your and your pets life easier. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Lets just start with the fact that I was able to book this 2 days before my trip. Chris was a lifesaver. Also super flexible with my travel schedule. My dog is definitely a handful and Chris came more than prepared. I walked through her daily needs and everything was followed to a T and then some. He sent me constant updates and photos of her playing and snuggling. I could tell she was super comfortable with her arrangements. I got home and I could tell she was exhausted from all the playtime :). Will definitely be booking in the future.

Chris is the best dog sitter I have ever met. He’s so good with the dogs and an amazing communicator. Highly recommend.

Chris saved us in a pinch that turned out to be a blessing in disguise. He was the perfect fit for our pup, super responsive and took great pics :) can’t suggest him enough

My fiancée and I currently have 2 dogs: a 5 year old that was actually one of the first dogs we ever watched via Rover (his original owner could no longer have him and he was too awesome to not take him for ourselves) and an almost 2 year old that we adopted when he was 3 months old. They are both very sweet and I'd be happy to introduce them to your furry friend if that's something you'd like. I have more patience with pets than I do with most humans, haha.

Information Chris E. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog get along with other dogs/humans? How do they walk? Medical issues? Their overall routine? Basically anything that would help me help keep your pet at ease and engaged during my time with them.

A typical day

Back yard fun, dog park, walks, belly rubs and anything else you'd like me to do during my time with your friend (s). Basically, of your dog will enjoy it, I'm game.

I currently have a day job, but since I utilize a smaller radius for client location, I can accommodate most situations that involve a need for a morning, afternoon, and evening walk.
