Pet care experience

I don’t just watch dogs, I get them

I’ve been around dogs most of my life and I’m comfortable handling all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and small details, which helps dogs settle in quickly. I’m active, so walks and playtime are never an issue, but I also know how to keep things calm when needed. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they’re safe, exercised, and genuinely enjoying their time.

Safety, trust & environment

I create a calm, secure environment and stick closely to each dog’s routine. I pay attention to behavior and surroundings to prevent issues early. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and feeding, keeping everything safe, clean, and stress-free so your dog feels comfortable and you have peace of mind!

OMG, Christian was an absolute saint with my three babies, especially my Rottweiler, Princess, who doesn't usually warm up to strangers. After our meet-and-greet, I knew they were in great hands. I went on a 7-day cruise, and everything went perfectly while I was away. Even though my phone service was sporadic, Christian kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. When Princess decided she didn't want to eat because I wasn't home, Christian was incredibly patient and knew exactly how to handle the situation, and before long, she was eating again and doing well. Coming home to three happy, healthy, and well-cared-for dogs was the best feeling. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and who truly loves animals, I can't recommend Christian enough. I'll definitely be booking him again!

I cannot say enough good things about Christian!!! Our sitter fell through last minute and I reached out to Christian about two days before our trip. He got back to me within 30 minutes and then came over to meet the dogs the next day. My dogs and cat immediately took to him! He is a truly lovely young man and he took great care of our buddies, including sending regular pics and updates. I feel so lucky to have found a sitter who we can trust and we will continue to call Christian whenever we need a sitter or dog walker moving forward. Highly recommend!

Christian was an absolute five-star pet sitter for us. Honestly, I think our pets were disappointed when we came home. From the start, he made vacation feel completely stress-free. We got regular updates, photos, and could tell immediately that Zoe, Chaco, and Folly were genuinely comfortable around him (which is saying a lot, because our pets all have very strong opinions and zero shame about expressing them). He handled the chaos perfectly: * Zoe’s neighborhood surveillance duties * Chaco’s dramatic commentary on literally everything * Folly ruling the house like a tiny dictator The house was great, the pets were happy, and we never once had that “I should probably check in again…” anxiety that usually comes with traveling. Christian is reliable, communicative, easygoing, and clearly great with animals. We’d trust him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend — unless you need him during one of our future trips. 🙂

Christian was absolutely one of the best sitters we’ve ever had! Our regular sitter was unavailable, and Christian may have just taken the top spot. He was incredibly responsive for a last-minute booking, and it was obvious from the start that he genuinely loves dogs. Our boys were very well cared for, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were with him. We would book with Christian again without hesitation!

I had a great experience with Chris! He’s incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly cares a lot about animals. From the start, he was easy to coordinate with and made everything feel stress-free. What really stood out was how attentive and patient he is—he takes the time to understand each pet’s needs and personality. I always felt confident that any pet in his care would be safe, happy, and well looked after. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible sitter!

Christian is a true animal lover with a natural ability to connect with dogs of all temperaments and personalities. Having grown up with both pugs and pit bulls, he is comfortable caring for a wide range of breeds and understands their unique needs. When he cares for my dogs, I have complete peace of mind. He is attentive, responsible, and genuinely invested in their well-being. It’s clear that he doesn’t just “watch” animals—he builds a connection with them and treats them with patience, kindness, and respect. Christian goes above and beyond to make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. His reliability and compassion make him someone I trust completely with my pets, and I would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.
