Information Chris S. would like to know about your pet

We have both a young dog and a senior cat, so your dog must be ok with other animals in the house! Let me know of any other special needs your pet may have!

A typical day

My dog Fernet loves to play in the fenced in back yard. We have a walkable neighborhood, and go on 1-2 walks every day. We also live near Currie dog park, and often take trips to other off leash hiking parks.

Pet care experience

Grew up with dogs, family had five at one time, and then the kids started moving out and getting their own pups. My wife and I have had our dog, Fernet, for 2 years, and have been watching dogs for Rover for the last year through her account. We also have a cat, a 17 year old that I've cared for since he was a kitten. I also am a vendor for a CBD pet treat company at the Oak Creek Farmers market

Chris is the best! He's so easy to work with and flexible with his availability. Anytime I'm traveling out of town, I don't even think twice and just reach out to him. Freddie seems to get along well with him as well.

Chris was awesome with dropping in to check on our cat. Had a last minute emergency and he was able to fill in. He communicated well and was able to rearrange his schedule to make it work. Would reach out again with no second thoughts!

Chris loves animals of all kinds. He is always extremely reliable when caring for mine or my friend’s pets. Dogs love Chris because he is always willing to take them to the dog park or some fun adventure.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
