Pet care experience

Simple Pet Care

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 was great with communicating and making sure Enzo got his walks and medicine! His dog Dolly is very sweet and was able to handle Enzo’s energy level when he gets excited. I would definitely recommend Chris!

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.

Schedule

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.
