Fun drop-ins and lengthy walks!!

Pet care experience

Looking for an experienced dog handler to take care of your pups while you're away? Look no further than right here! I am a passionate dog owner with 2 rescues of my own. I have experience working with animal behaviorists/dog trainers (K-9 Turbo Training). Experience with rescue pups as well as fostering in my own home. I've worked with rescue organizations as well as the doggos themselves to help find their "fur-ever" homes. My wife (a nurse with an extensive background working with animals of all shapes and sizes herself including vaccinations, drawing blood, etc.) and I are experienced dog handlers that will make sure your pup gets lots of loving and plenty of exercise! I can guarantee your animals will be safe, secure, and given the exercise that fits them best in my hands!

I signed up with Chris to walk my 2 big dogs while I recovered from an injury. Chris was great! Always punctual, but willing to work around the weather when it rained. Chris has experience and good skills handling dogs. I heard from neighbors that my dogs behaved better for him than they do with me. I highly recommend Chris.

Chris has watched our 65 pound German Shepard lab a few times when we went on vacation and has always taken great care Sage as if he were his own! He has experience with giving medications and has worked with trainers in recognizing behaviors of aggression and stress! He uses positive reinforcment to train and enjoys the kisses and love provided by animals! I would most certainly recommend Chris for taking care of your dog. Although nothing can replace you as their human he is most certainly a close second while you are away?

Chris would make such a great addition to the Rover team because he has had so much experience with animals, especially dogs over the years. We have worked together with the rescue "Home Furever". Volunteering at adoption events, collecting and donating items to the shelter, helped with yard sales where the proceeds went to help payoff vet bills, and he also helped find placement for pups and returned lost dogs to their families. He has fostered many dogs over the years and adopted two himself. The love and passion that shows when he works with animals is one that makes you feel like you could change the world. He is very patient but attentive to the dogs needs and wants. I think any customer would be very pleased with his care and use him continuously. I myself, have a big rott lab mix that Chris has watched when I've gone out of town for travel or stopped by my home to care for when I work a long shift at the hospital. I trust him completely with my fur baby and home.

Chris S is the best dog dad ever!! He is attentive, flexible and has wonderful experience. He has experience with dogs that have special needs, including giving medications and special diets. He has tons of experience with reactive dogs, including rescuing a few himself. He is a previous foster for rescues, and enjoys volunteering. He is prompt and attentive. He will care for your furry friend as if they were one of his own pack! I highly recommend him!
