Pet care experience

Two loves animals and sports

I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since middle school. There is no better feeling than coming home and hanging out with a pet. As a husky owner I understand the importance of patience, training, respecting a pet’s boundaries and the need for a variety of physical and mental exercise. When I adopted my dog he was still a pup and underweight due to the prior owners negligence. With my previous experience and training from the world class rescue which I adopted him from aided in his recovery and now flourishing life. Every pet has a different personality and preference and I firmly believe that should be respected. Our job as sitters and good humans is to provide comfort for animals while keeping them safe and honoring their individuality.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced yard with a multitude of walking paths and dog park near by so depending on your preference we can accommodate your dogs activity preference. We do have a dog and cat so if I am boarding I ask that your pet is both cat and dog friendly. Our dog is crate trained and respectful of the cat’s space so I would expect the same from your pet as well. If I am house sitting, your rules apply I don’t want to disrupt the pets routine.

Chris stayed in my home and watched my cat a few different times while I’ve been on vacation. She has separation anxiety and gets really anxious when I leave, but she cozied right up to him while I was gone. Chris made sure to send updates for my peace of mind. When I returned, she was so calm and not her usual anxious self, which tells me she was comfortable and happy while Chris was staying with her. I highly recommend Chris if you’re looking for someone warm, patient, and compassionate to watch your pets!

Please be transparent regarding your dogs needs and temperament. I’d much rather us be proactive than reactive. I would also love to know your routine, play preferences, hobbies and how your pet responds to walking on lead.
