Pet care experience

Reliable and loving dog sitter

Hi, I’m Christian! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog dad of 14+ years. I live in a dog-friendly, second-floor walk-up in Astoria, just steps away from a park where your pup can enjoy some fresh air and exercise. I work from home, so I can give your dog plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a senior who needs some extra TLC, I’m here to provide a safe, loving environment. Your pup will always get the love and care they deserve with me!

Christian was flexible and easy to communicate with. I knew Lucy was in good hands and enjoyed her time with him!

I don't worry about my dog when I leave her with Christian. That is a big change for me! Thanks Christian for taking such good care of her, and for my peace of mind!

Christian took great care of my dog Lolli, a nervous and unruly chihuahua who needs a lot of attention. He had just the right vibe in relating to her. I know this because she was calm and happy when I picked her up. I would definitely ask Christian to board her again. Thank you Christian!

Christian was amazing. We recently moved and needed a sitter for thanksgiving travel. We were nervous about leaving our dog as she is already pretty anxious and the recent move had definitely contributed to her anxiety. She warmed up to Christian almost immediately. We appreciated that Christian was super accommodating and kept us updated on how Penelope was doing throughout the stay. Cannot recommend Christian more!

Schedule

My job allows me to set my own schedule as it relates to coming into the office, so I am very flexible on going in. Most of the time I am working remotely so I can give your dog the love and attention it needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I am on the second floor of a walk-up building I which is dog friendly. I’m two blocks away from a park and would have no problems taking your pup out for as many walks as they need. I also have pads that I can put down as well. I’m happy to cater to whatever need your pup may have.

A typical day

Whatever your dog needs! Whether playing with their favorite toys or going for a troll in the neighborhood, I’m adaptable to anything your furry friend likes to do.
