Pet care experience

In 2012, I adopted a 2 year old Norwegian Elkhound rescue named Raff and we immediately became best pals. In the first few months of our friendship, I spent countless hours online researching care for his breed and the most effective training methods. It was an incredibly rewarding experience watching him grow as I coached him to become a well-behaved and playful companion. In 2016, Raff and I parted ways when he was adopted by a beautiful family with a large yard and children to grow with. Ever since meeting my best pal, I've had a huge place in my heart for dogs and in educating other dog owners in the proper care and training for their pups. I was introduced to Rover by a friend of mine, and I think it's such a fun and exciting way to get to meet other faithful canines across Tampa Bay. I am based in St Petersburg and am mostly available during the daytime. My apartment is neighbors with Pinellas Trail and I'd love to take your dog for a walk or run. If fetch is more of your dog's hobby, I'm just a few blocks away from two beautiful dog parks. I can't wait to meet your canine companion!

Christian hosted our dog Quinn while we were away for ten days. We had to find a sitter who did not have children or other dogs in the home. Let's just say Quinn does not always play well with others. From the moment we met Christian at the meet and greet, we had confidence that Quinn would be well cared for while we were away. Christian was very accommodating and responsive, and he sent photos throughout the trip and gave us updates on how Quinn was doing. His home is nice and clean. Best of all we came home to a calm and happy dog!

Christian did a great job for us. This was our first time using Rover.com. We chose him carefully from an attractive list of caregivers. Belle stayed with him in his home for ten days. We got good pictures of her regularly, and quick replies to all our messages. We were well satisfied and will look to use Christian again.

Archie had so much fun with Christian! As a first time rover user I was nervous about leaving my best bud with a stranger. My nerves went away after being invited to see where my baby was staying. Christian sent photos and updates on my boy, and even dropped him off to me the next day. I would HIGHLY recommend Christian if you love your dog as much as I do, because your furry friend is in great hands!

I am a crazy person about my dog Jackson, and super particular about his care when I have to travel and require someone to watch him, so the fact that I have left him in Christian's care for up to a week at a time says volumes. Christian is responsible, loving, attentive, and truly devotes all the necessary time to taking care of Jackson even though he is not his dog. Other than myself, there really isn't anyone I trust to take care of my dog more than Christian.
