Safety, trust & environment

I can't host any pets at the moment, but I honor my client's rules and preferences for how they want their pet cared for in their home.

Information Christian A. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has a specific feeding or medication schedule, I like to have that info ahead of time. A printed sheet with the basics works great, but a message through the app or a quick email is totally fine too. Whatever makes it easiest for you! I just want to make sure I get it right.

A typical day

For dogs, the day usually starts with an early walk for fresh air, sniff breaks, and a bit of movement to start things off right. If your pup’s up for it, we’ll explore the neighborhood or hop in the car for a trail or park adventure. For cats, I’m all about keeping the energy calm. I like to read or do yoga while they lounge or play nearby. Whether they want company or their space, I’ll meet them where they’re at.

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and cats and have always seen them as family. I’m calm, reliable, and easy to work with. I’ll follow your pet’s routine down to the details—walks, feeding, meds, whatever they need. I’m also active and love getting outside, so your dog won’t be bored. I keep things clean, handle unexpected stuff well, and send thoughtful updates so you’re never left wondering how things are going. Whether your pet’s up for an adventure or just wants to chill, I’ve got them covered.

Our old dog was feeling unwell and Christian took great care of her. He had sat her before and knowing she was in good hands made leaving her so much easier.

Christian is the greatest! He’s watched my dog Benny before and I would absolutely hire him to watch him again. Definitely book with Christian!

Christian has watched my anxious Dottie dog three times now, he takes great care of her and makes sure to send pictures and updates daily to let me know how she’s doing. He is mindful of her routine and respectful of our apartment while he stays here. Christian has quickly become one of Dottie’s favorite people to hang out with!

Christian was great with my anxious and energetic dog, Dottie! He provided thorough updates and photos, kept her busy with exercise and socialization, and took great care of her and our house while I was out of town.
