doggy obedience class veteran

Pet care experience

I've volunteered in humane societies, worked in obedience classes for a few years, and have owned and cared for several dogs of all sizes in my lifetime. I can get a dog riled up for playtime and calm them down on the spot. I make sure they are within eyeshot at all times, and know how to keep them out of trouble. I can update you hourly or however frequently you need as well. I have a take charge attitude, but still love letting a dog be a dog at the end of the day. I am very experienced cleaning up messes if worst cases happens. I am available pretty much 24/7, so please reach out to me if you are interested in your dog having a new friend :)

I will give Christopher 4-stars. He was very flexible with me on Sunday. He showed up on time and took my pup for a walk. I had scheduled him for the next morning at 845am, but he cancelled 15-minutes prior. I don't want to ding him too hard as things come up, but I specifically scheduled my day around a two-hour gym session (we were just there for the night on a layover). Overall, I would use him again.

We had Chris watch our dogs at our home during thanksgiving break. He was our first choice after talking with a few other dog watchers on Rover. We liked that he offered to come meet the dogs, he was personable and seemed to know what he was doing. That being said, I would not recommend him. On our way back from our trip, Chris let me know that he had already left our house, and the dogs were doing great. Thus I did not think to tell him that we were going to be home early. When we arrived home after 8 hours of travel, we were shocked to find two random and somewhat alarmed girls in our home. The house REEKED of pee from the second we opened the door, interesting because our dogs are all house trained. We found women's pants in our unmade bed. One of our dogs shredded their (as told by the girls) urine soaked bed and shredded it while she was locked in her kennel, the result of which we found and continue to find spread around the the house and outside. None of this compared to the fact that our youngest dog smelled so overwhelmingly of pee that it was obvious she had been sitting in her own piss for an extended period of time. As longtime dog owners, we will be the first to understand an accident or two. This was not the case. My dogs were not taken care of and we will not use Chris as our dog watcher again.

Chris clearly has experience with dogs. He was thorough at the meet and greet to ensure he understood my dogs exact needs. While I was away I got an update each day from pickup to drop off. Chris will be my primary go-to sitter in the future.

Excellent care. Christopher picked up my dog and watched him for almost a week. He sent me daily texts with pictures and information on their outings. My dog was returned happy and tired from all the fun and exercise. Highly recommend him and will call him for future care.
