Safety, trust & environment

I live alone in a bright sunny duplex, just across the street from the beautiful Berger Park in Edgewater. My home is fully equipped with plush toys, giant blankets, food/water bowls and any comfort a pet could want. My couch and bed are fair game and I'm not shy about shedding or cuddling up on the couch. I also have a great street-scape view and find many pets enjoy staring out the window looking at the neighborhood dogs pass by.

Information Christian P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there's any special accommodations or behavioral tendencies for your dogs. I can be very accommodating and have a experience with ALL types of pets, shapes and sizes.

A typical day

Very of my pet-friendly and secure environment. My place is equipped with all the amenities your dog needs to feel at ease, including cozy bedding, a nearby park for playtime, and a safe space for relaxation. I love walking outdoors, it's one of the best parts of the job! Pets will receive all the comforts they're accustomed to, just as if they were at home!

Pet care experience

I've been actively pet-sitting and boarding for friends and family over the last several years. My experience range from Pomeranian puppies to full-grown Bernedoodle. Even a cat or two. At 6'2, I'm very comfortable with large, active dogs, but gentle and patient enough for the younger and smaller breeds.

Recurring requester of Christian, he’s awesome and my dogs love him. He’s very responsive, sends pictures and worked with us as we dealt with traveling delays. 10 stars!
