Dog care your way!

Pet care experience

I understand first and foremost how important it is that a pet experience stability in the absence of its owner. Just as important is that an owner feels safe with a sitter being in their home. I'm 36, married to my beautiful wife Elena and a non-smoker. When I'm not watching animals, I'm helping people. I have founded a non-profit organization called Faith Based Ministries which helps feed and shelter the homeless in Las Vegas. I would expect to meet personally with the owner before a home visit where more personal questions could be addressed. Why I love dog sitting I've been around dogs all my life, growing up I had an Old English Sheep Dog named Joe. My family also had four Golden Retrievers, a cat named Katie, and GP our Guinea Pig. I'm a Golden Retriever enthusiasts, but I bond quickly with most pets. My experience administering medication I'm comfortable administering oral medications.

Once you meet Chris, you will feel so comfortable having him take care of your dog (or cat). He's very attentive and caring. He truly loves pets and they love him! I knew my dog was in good hands, especially when she was excited to see Chris after meeting him the first time. I definitely would recommend Chris for your pet care needs!

I contacted Chris to request his pet sitter services with a very short notice. He responded within minutes about his availability. Chris is so friendly and personable and seemed to really care about what I had to say about my little 4 month old puppy. I knew he would be in good hands from the minute I met him and saw my puppy interact with him. He was absolutely amazing with Rufus! He even sent me photos of Rufus and gave me an update about how he was doing. Thank you so much for watching my little puppy! I will definitely recommend Chris to others in the Las Vegas area needing pet sitter services.

Information Chris S. would like to know about your pet

The most important thing for me to understand about the dog before sitting is the temperament of the animal through the eyes of the owner. It helps me formulate an idea of the kind exercise and stimulation the dog will need. I do love all dogs but I have two breed restrictions. No German Shepard's and no Rottweilers, even though both breeds are very sweet, they tend to be more unpredictable in temporary care. Sorry.

A typical day

Playful and attentive is how I best describe my sitting style. Pet interaction is vitally important to the sitting experience whether we are walking, playing fetch, or chilling on the couch. The activities performed are always based on the pet owners preference. My goal with every pet-sitting experience is to give the pet the same love and attention it would receive if the owner had never left at all.
