I spent my time in graduate school making extra money by caring for the pets of my professors and neighbors. I'm long out of school and work for myself on various projects that give me lots of flexibility to care for your pet.

Information Chris G. would like to know about your pet

All pets have their quirks. I'm pretty comfortable with any pet as long as I have good instructions from you. So, please don't hesitate to share anything about your dog beforehand.

A typical day

I often take my pups on daily walks or go on longer hikes on weekends. I'm working on training one of my pups to run with me. I have a small backyard that allows me to work outside on my porch with my dogs in the yard.

Simple Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm a lifelong dog and cat owner (with many years raising chickens, geese, goats, and other furry friends) looking to help others ensure their pets have great care. I've dealt with silly young cats to older, special needs dogs. I own my home in West Plaza and have a lot of flexibility in my day, so I’m willing to help folks out with their pets. If you are really far from my house, we can discuss a fair additional cost for the long travel.

Chris is an excellent dog sitter! I trust him completely with Dasha, I know she is well cared for. I will continue to take Dasha to him.

I knew Bowie was in good, trustworthy, paw-friendly hands! Chris was a good communicator, timely picture taker, and laid back.

Chris was awesome for the week he came over and walked my large dog. I totally trusted him taking good care of her. I will definitely be booking with him again and would recommend to anyone else.

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.
