Pet care experience

Experienced dog and cat caregiver.

I started taking care of dogs when I was just in middle school walking a dog named Buddy for an elderly couple in my neighborhood in Dallas, Texas. Fast forward to college, I worked for a year at a dog daycare/boarding facility. I have always loved working with dogs and cats as well!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat all other dogs the same way I treat my own 2 pups. There is no such thing as a bad dog or cat, just those that need more patience. The first thing I do when I wake up every morning is let my 2 pups out and feed them. My dogs are crate trained but I work with dogs that are loose throughout the day. If caring for another’s pups/cats, they will be extra spoiled while under my care. When under my care, their well-being takes priority over all else.

Chris was friendly and professional and gave us many updates on our pup while we were out of town. She and the house were in great shape when we returned. We will definitely ask to work with Chris again! Thank you!

Chris was outstanding! He provided thorough reports and took great photos each visit, and followed my (neurotic) instructions to a tee. The most important thing for me to find on Rover is peace of mind while I am away, and Chris really delivered. Thank you!

Chris is a wonderful pet caregiver! He was an exceptional communicator from the first messages all the way to the detailed updates while we were away. It truly felt like he went above and beyond! He took excellent care of our dog, ensuring our pet felt loved and well-cared for. I highly recommend Chris for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet caregiver!

Chris was incredibly professional, attentive and caring. From our first communication via text, to updates while he cared for our two Great Danes—I always felt comfortable that he knew what he was doing and genuinely cared for our dogs. I would highly recommend him to care for anyone’s pets in the future!

I would need to know about Medication needs, dietary restrictions, allergies, energy levels, and things they like to do. Getting to know a dog by meeting them in advance of long term care is also extremely important.
