Big, Tender, Natural-Born Caretaker
As a child and teen, I helped my mom breed, raise, and train golden retrievers. As an adult and family man, I cared for my dog "Beyoncé" and cat "Kitty." This includes food, water, play, running, brushing, brushing teeth, and trimming. My pets have passed on and I’m ready to host 😊 Im a dad of 3 boys with shared custody. With a barn and a sunroom, I’m able to separate kids from dogs as-needed. I enjoy the rural setting, and keep chickens and ducks, and garden. I’m a civil engineer / environmental consultant and work at home 100%. I have a lot of flexibility with taking breaks. Experienced with using a clicker to train, and using a beep / vibrate collar for training spirited dogs. Aiming to cater to the most “difficult” dogs for those owners who have limited options.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen
Chris is great! He treated my dog as one of his own. You couldn’t ask for more.
Chris was an incredible sitter! He was very thorough and kept me updated throughout the duration of my pets stay with him. I knew that my dog was in great hands with Chris and I didn’t have any concerns. It was a huge relief to be able to leave my dog with a sitter that I didn’t have any worries about. The stay with Chris was incredibly smooth and I would recommend Chris to everyone!
Great to work with and very good communication. Will book again
Chris was a great host for my golden, Cash. He was very communicative and he made sure to get to know him and understand him without rushing him in a way that would make him anxious. He sent photos and gave me updates on how he was integrating while I was away on a trip. There's room to play around in his yard and I think Cash would love to go back!
Chris provided a wonderful home environment for my anxious pup and checked in frequently with updates and pics. Chris is gentle, calm and laid back, which worked well with my dog. When there were difficulties, such as getting my dog to sleep in his crate the first night, Chris was flexible and adaptable, which I greatly appreciated. I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Chris’ capable hands and would call on him again to pet sit.
Chris was so wonderful with my two pups! He sent me tons of photos and updates about what they were up to while I was away, and even sent photos of him running with them (they are both very high energy and love a good run!). He was always super attentive, and they absolutely loved cuddling with him - he's a total natural with dogs and such a dog lover, I would have him watch my dogs absolutely any time. Can't wait to have him back, and I'm sure the dogs can't wait either!

I work at home as an engineer / consultant and have lots of flexibility with taking breaks. I have a need to move every hour at least.

Sicherheit, Vertrauen & Umgebung
I live in a single family home that I own. The house is kept clean and because of my pet history I keep things off the floor and food safe from pets. There’s a nice yard but no fence. I have my three boys staying here every other week/end. They're animal lovers too, but in case separation is needed, my bedroom, enclosed sunroom, and finished barn space can be used to contain a pet when the kids are around. For pet sitting and dog walking, I have a leash and a fanny pack. As a runner, it's a joy to take energetic dogs on the trail. For runs & walks, I use my own private access to the little gunpowder falls river woods with a long walkable waterfall, the local NCR trail, or the cemetery across the street (1/4mi laps).
Ein typischer Tag
I take walks. Without a fenced yard I tend to keep physical activity indoors and on walks/runs. I don’t take dogs outside without a leash. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couch.
