1/4 Acre Backyard for Your Dog!

Pet care experience

I have been a pet lover my whole life. Growing up in Ireland, my family always had 8 cats and a big dog so I am well versed in pet care. My family moved to Benicia early 2020. We have a large 1/4 acre lot with a fenced in yard perfect for a dog! Currently, we have a cat (who is not allowed outside) a toddler and a preschooler. In 2020, I left my job as a metalwork sculptor to take care of my kids full time. I started doing Rover as I'm home most of the time and the kids and I love hanging out with doggies! Your pets will be well taken care of like a member of the family! I have experience taking care of big dogs (100lbs+), small dogs, senior dogs and puppies. I can accommodate a maximum of four dogs at once, if they are all from the same family.

Chris is the best. We’ve been sending our elderly dog to him for a few years now and he always comes home relaxed and happy. Chris has done a great job making sure that if there are any large or playful dogs there, my little guy gets his space. So grateful Seymour has a great place to go when we’re away!
