Pet care experience

I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats. In high school I ran a small business providing in house dog/cat sitting to families nearby. Here, I worked with several different families and gained experience with dogs of varying sizes and temperaments. Additionally, I spent years as the Team Leader at a local cat shelter in my hometown providing care for cats such as socializing and administering medication. And lastly, I have had a couple family dogs for my entire life giving me plenty of experience caring for dogs in every way. I have also grown up with several cats. NEW CLIENTS: I am happy to work with you and discuss options to meet you where you are at. If the rates are the issue, then please reach out so we can discuss! That means if you just need me to stop by to let your dog out or feed them and don’t need a full 30 minute session, then I’d be happy to give you a discounted rate. REPEAT CLIENTS: If my rates go up, yours do not. My rates on your original booking will be locked in for life.

Chris was great! Checked on my little crew of 3 cats. They seem to have gotten along great with him. Very responsive and timely! Will be rebooking in the future :)

Chris took amazing care of our kitty while we took our first vacation since getting her. We appreciate Chris's genuineness and can tell he enjoys spending time with the pets he drops in on. His care cards are detailed and the pictures are a great representation of each visit. We feel lucky to have found Chris, he put us at ease knowing he was taking awesome care of our cat and we will definitely reach out in the future to schedule with Chris again!

Definitely recommend Chris for pet sitting. Our dog Geoff took to him right away. Chris came to our home and handled hours of playing, feeding, walking, and sleeping—all went well. Easy to coordinate with, punctual, and we returned to a very happy pup. Grateful for his help.

Safety, trust & environment

For my service, I will work with you to meet your needs and desires for safety and trust. I understand handing the leash over to someone can be a potentially daunting task, so I make it my top priority to be fully transparent and establish clear communication with you. I am happy to send updates and photos throughout my visits with your pet(s). An example of an area I take special attention with the safety of your pets is when walking along a street where I will always make sure they are not in danger of incoming traffic. I also have experience administering medication to animals and would be happy to provide that service if necessary. Please reach out with any special accommodations and requests regarding safety and trust.

Information Chris T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any unique traits or things I should know about your dog. If there are any past behavioral issues please discuss that with me beforehand.

A typical day

I love providing your dog with mental stimulation, exercise, good company, and of course with lots of good scratches. I am able to play your dog’s favorite game with them as much as needed or just spend time with them.

SCHEDULE: I am a recent graduate with plenty of time during the day and nights to care for your pets. I am able to work with you and adapt to your schedule. I work mornings at a grocery store so the early portion of the day is generally the only time difficult for me to accommodate.
