Garunteed fun with your Dog or Cat!

Pet care experience

I really enjoy running and playing with dogs. Because dogs feed off of other people's energy, I approach them in a calm, inviting manner. I have lived in the area for over 20 years and am very familiar with local trails and parks and I will make sure that your dog gets the attention and exercise she/he needs during each visit. My cat Finley is a rescue and was shy and timid when my wife and I brought him into our home. With patience and love we comforted him and now he bounces around the house like a kitten. That patience and love will also be conveyed to your cat. Whether your cat likes to play its heart out or cuddle while you read, I can provide an accommodating atmosphere they'll feel comfort in. I've been a dog owner for many years and a cat owner since I was born. I currently enjoy looking after my parents pet's when they are on vacation. Because I have a rescue cat at home I cannot own a dog. Otherwise, I'd be a proud dog owner myself. I work during the week but love spending time with a four legged friend outdoors. I am happy to send pictures updates of your pet while you are away to ensure everyone is having the best time. I would be happy to provide quality care and attention for any dog. I would be happy to provide quality for dog any time.

Chris was great! Booked Chris to drop in on my cat while I was on vacation. I would definitely reach out to him if I needed someone to watch my cat again. My cat seemed really happy and healthy when I got back. Really reliable and easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond and even helped me take in some packages that were left at my door and water my plants.

I cannot recommend Chris enough! He took care of our two family dogs by providing multiple drop in visits to walk and feed them. He was reliable, caring, and responsible! We will definitely be requesting Chis’s help again for future dog sitting needs! Thanks again so much!

Chris did such a great job taking care of our cat and I would ask him to watch her again in a heart beat! He was so easy to communicate with, careful to make sure all of our cat's needs were taken care of, and sent us pictures of her while we were away. Would definitely recommend! : )
