Sensible, Caring, dog watcher

Pet care experience

I have a 2 year old Red Heeler that is very energetic, and needs lots of play time. We used Rover when she was a puppy and it helped us greatly. I personally have 10+ years of dog watching experience. Calm and controlled caretaker that only cares about your dog’s wellbeing and development. Very flexible schedule and I can come by up to 4 times a day to help to get your dog exercise, whether it may be walks or to play ball. I always try to incorporate some exercise during potty breaks so your dog gets the attention it needs. Please know when I’m taking care of your dog compassion is the number one priority. I love dogs and hopefully they love me back.

Chris and his fiancé watched our little furry dude over the weekend! Amazing updates, they made adjustments with the heat but made sure that our pupper still got some exercise no matter what. We didn’t have to worry about him at all and we looked forward to the updates and great pictures!! We will DEFINITELY ask them to watch our scruffadoo next time we have to leave town! You can’t go wrong with hiring Chris!!

Chris has watched over my dog for multiple weekends away, weeks-long vacations, and just taking her for a walk and I'll ask him to do so again and again in the future. He is always confident, competent, and very aware of what our dog needs - from a refill of her water dish to a scratch behind the ears. I trust Chris completely with our dog - he is a great dog watcher and a great pal for a puppy that needs to play!

Chris watched my two Boston terriers when we had to go to a wedding. My dogs are high anxiety so needless to say we worried. When we returned later that night, both of them were sleeping like babies. I would most certainly use him again! My dogs love him!
