Love being with and around dogs

Looked after friends and family dogs for 15 years.Take my brothers cockerspaniel out for a 5 mile walk 5 days a week while he is at work and I'm a retired Fireman. Been a member of Trusted housesitter for around 6 years where I have a 5 star review for the 6 sits I have done. On this site I don't get payed anything and therefore becoming quite expensive for me when you consider petrol etc.

Chris was great, very responsive and I felt like my whippet was in safe hands. Chris was flexible with times etc and accommodating to our dogs sleeping habits. He kept me informed of how our dog was getting on, would recommend.

Couldn’t be happier - left boys with Chris at relatively short notice - they came back very happy dogs. We had discussed the boys anxiety and how they may take time to get to know him, but really needn’t have worried as they both loved him. Chris provides a real home from home experience and plenty of nice long walks - would recommend without hesitation!

I can't recommend Chris enough, Ruby came back happy and content, totally different than to when we where putting her in kennels. The communication which Chris was bang on point too,Chris sent photo's of there walks which put mind at rest too.

Chris Johnson has been a reliable and unbelievable person in my dog , Dexters life over the last 7 years. Chris takes Dexter out every day for at least 2 hours , even when the weather is not so good! Dexter looks forward to him coming as he sits at the window waiting for him . Chris also has Dexter on extended breaks when we go away on holiday, which is very reassuring to know that Dexter is in very good hands. I would highly recommend Chris to look after anyone’s dog
