Pet care experience

I am a dog loving enthusiast!

I am an engineer in the Naperville area looking to make some extra money on the side as I work remotely from home. My wife and I absolutely love dogs, and we both have had dogs as pets before. I have over 10 years experience taking care of my current dog, a goldendoodle named Millie and my family’s dogs. If there is something new to me, I am a quick and eager learner! Your dogs will be safe and well cared for with me. I am looking forward to be working more with dogs and if there are any questions please contact me!

Chris was very professional Very accommodating when I was running late and our Dog Odie had good time. He was not showing any anxiety when he got home. Will definitely use them again.

Trixie and Atlas enjoyed staying with Chris .Chris took in our fur kids w/o a prior meet and greet with him and his dog as we were coming in from Iowa for a baby shower. Our pups and his got along great. We are grateful Chris took our pups in. We were very happy with how our fur kids were treated and would not hesitate to use Chris again and recommend anyone looking for a sitter to contact Chris. Thanks again Chris

I booked Chris extremely last minute — barely 14 hours before drop-off — and he was quick to respond and very accommodating. He and his wife took great care of my doodle. My pup was happy and well looked after, and everything went smoothly. I’m so grateful for the flexibility and care. Highly recommend!
