Cowboy Chris

Pet care experience

Raised on a cattle ranch in Oklahoma, also showed cattle, sheep, and goats. Love animals in general and dogs are a mans best friend! I’m have my degree in animal science and ag business. I am the bareback director for the IRCA so animals of all sorts I deal with in a daily basis. My girlfriend and I live in Ames and we have been here since 2015. She is a student at Iowa state. Our goal is to move back to Oklahoma and take over the family ranch. Currently I work at Ames ford and Lincoln in Ames Iowa and I enjoy working with people, but I enjoy working with animals more. Please give me a call or contact me if you have any other questions!

Sitter was enthusiastic and answered most communication quickly. Did not send any pictures as asked. Home seemed chaotic and disorganized. No idea how many hours my dog spent alone or in a kennel in his home. Picked up dog late on 14th and due to unpacking and my fatigue and his dark nose color did not notice until morning of 15th that his nose was injured. There were dark scabs on top of his nose and his jowls were swollen and covered in scabs.Was not injured when I dropped him off. Either the sitter did not notice or he noticed and decided not to let me know. Now, 10/23, mostly healed but has pink scarring on muzzle and jowls now. Sitter did not offer any explanation when contacted about this. Looks like he was bitten? by sitters other dog. His bed had garbage in it- an ink pen, some plastic tabs, things that could have hurt my dog had he ingested them. Sitter also did not return my measure cup for feeding. Will not use this sitter again.

Chris was awesome! He was super easy to get ahold of and quick with responses to any questions, etc. He was very flexible and easy to work with. Remi had a great time with him and his pup. I will definitely be using Chris again when ever I need to travel.
