Availability
I am generally open to anything my time slots provide. Overnights should not be an issue but will need to be talked about prior to booking. I do NOT have have a place to house dogs so currently I am only a house sitter. Please let me know if you have any questions!

About Chris H.

Safety, trust & environment
I used to care for 2 dogs and a cat while i was with my wife but now i just have the cat. The cat is very much self sufficient, although she does revel in all the pets that we have to offer, but the dogs take more work! I love to take dogs on walks in the various parks around where i am living and will do the same for yours! If you have favorite spot let me know about it!! I can incorporate a walk there for your pups if you would like!
Information Chris H. would like to know about your pet
Please have ready the following items. It is preferred to have a pdf or a printed document available but everything explained in the chat will ve fine as well! -Name of dog/s -Age/s -Feeding times including how much per feeding. -General actions taken with your family pet, such as sitting or staying in a certain area before feedings. -Medications as well as times taken - Treats! Where are they! Do you have a specific brand you like? I would also love any emergency info, including alternative phone numbers or neighbors/friends I could call in case if emergency. As well as all veterinary information and vet numbers! (You should be able to update all this in the app!
A typical day
If I spend the night I will usually try and incorporate 1 - 2; half hour- hour long walks a day. Depending on how your dog is acting we will turn back early but generally most pups enjoy the walk. Sometimes we take breaks and chill in the shade. Once we get back I like to spend some time in the yard, if permitted, with the dogs so they don't spend all day inside! Whether it is just laying on the grass or jogging around some more I try to get some exercises in so they are more settled at night.

Pet care experience
I have watched and taken care of dogs and cats since I was little. I have great experience with animals I first meet, even if they seem a bit mean. I have raised my own dog for the past 10 years with issues in anxiety, from pup to adult pup! I understand feeding times and how important they can be to making sure medication is delivered appropriately. While i travek with my wife, i have dealt with a wide variety of dogs from the app, nothing has been to hard to deal with or anything i couldnt handle! With patience and adaptability is how I persevere. I am also LGBTQ+ friendly! I do not discriminate and want to foster good relationships with my clients so they know I can be trusted to take care if their pet! (Or home, in the event I house sit!)
Reviews
Chris did a great job sitting for us! Even with a few hiccups, he was very honest with us and great with his communication! Our dogs warmed to him quickly! We would have him back!
Chris was a great sitter for my dog. He was very thorough in understanding my pets needs and a breeze to communicate with. He clearly loves animals and wants to ensure they’re happy and safe while in his care.
This is the second time we have had Chris stay with our two dogs while out of town and both times we have had great experiences. The dogs love him and are always happy and healthy when we get home. We got regular updates and I feel he went above and beyond in many ways. I would absolutely use him again! Thanks, Chris! The girls miss you!
Chris was excellent with our two big dogs. Our older dog is a little more anxious but took to Chris very quickly compared to most. He was respectful and left the place very clean and our babies seemed very happy and cared for when we got home. He sent regular updates which we were very appreciative of. We will absolutely use him again
