Dogs love me!

Pet care experience

I've been a dog owner for most of my life, bonding in my teenage years with a beagle that was basically my best friend (and occasionally, a beagle sized heater). Restrictions on current housing make dog ownership very hard, but I am willing to travel to care for your pups. I have experience in training dogs and will follow whatever training and feeding plans that you have for them. Also, if you are a multi-animal household, I will care for them just as I would care for your dogs, as I have in the past, also owned cats and birds. Part of my care includes both text and photo updates of your dog, because I know from my own experiences in the past, it can be nice to just have a steady update of what your dog is doing. I send photos either through the Rover app, text message, or Facebook messenger. It's up to the client for what we use. As for my availability, I'm very open*, as I am dedicating most of my time to the care of pets, both here on Rover and for prior families that I have sat for. *Potential clients: I would request a week's notice in advance on needing services, so that a meet and greet can be held before the walks or stay is booked.

Chris always takes excellent care of our pups. We feel comfortable leaving for a trip when she’s there with them. We know they are in good hands with her and she always keeps us informed and sends lots of pictures of our fur babies :)

Chris did an amazing job with our pups! She kept us well informed, was reliable, and gave us peace of mind while we traveled. She sent us lots of pictures and gave our pups plenty of love & snuggles.

We very rarely leave our fur babies to go on vacations. But now that we have found Chris we will be more comfortable in leaving them in her care. She was very good with our babies and they loved her as well. Chris sent us lots of pictures and videos while we were away that set our minds at ease. Chris is a huge animal lover and we highly recommend her.

Things to know: Food schedule and any special diet needs, how do they handle other animals, are they housebroken, and are they working on training Breed preference: I have spent most of my years with beagles, but I am willing to work with any and all dogs.

A typical day

For walks, I would map out trails near your house prior to the walk. If there are none, I'll stick to the neighborhood itself. For activities, I have never had fetch fail me. I can also spend hours playing tug of war with your pup. Also, would totally be down for the dog park and all the joys it can bring.
