Professional-Fun Loving-Responsible

I have been a dog lover my whole life. I've shared my life with a dog for the better part of the last 25 years. Come to the lake and let your your loved one have a dogcation and enjoy themselves while you are away. I have a 5 year old rescued dachshund/chihuahua/just about everything else mix named bunker.

Chris cared for our dog several times over the last month. Our dog had some minor medical issues but that didn't phase Chris at all! Now when we pull in the driveway, our dog can't wait to jump out and head into the house! Chris always responds promptly and his love for dogs is very obvious. It's very nice that he takes only one dog at a time and has a "mi casa es su casa " attitude when they are in the house. His dog Bunker is easy to get along with and the fenced yard is a plus. We plan to use Chris again....(and again...!)

Chris was great with Lainey (and with us). Super communicative and easy in terms of meet up, drop off, and pick up. And did a great job with Lainey, even as she presented him with some unique challenges.

My husband and I were leaving our dog Tilly for the first time with someone other than family. We were feeling very apprehensive about it. There was no need. Chris was wonderful! He was very accommodating and made us feel at ease. He and his dog Bunker were very welcoming towards Tilly. Chris gave us daily updates about how things were going. We really appreciated that. We would not hesitate to leave Tilly with him again. It is such a relief knowing that Chris will take as good of care of Tilly as we do. Definitely 5 out of 5 stars!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and gated kitchen. The yard provides ample space to run and play. Safety is my main concern. Rest assured no one is left unattended. My Bunker is friendly with all dogs and loves to play. If crating is preferred I can accommodate.
