Highlights
Pet care experience
Texas born, dog raised
I’ve taken care of dogs nearly all of my life, ranging from puppies as young as six months to old seniors. I’ve worked with resource guarding, overly-affectionate, and the downright indifferent doggos, all of which I’ve enjoyed caring for. I’ll approach any dog with respect and kindness, as you should expect a caretaker to do!

Safety, trust & environment
My current dog is crate trained, and before moving here to Washington State we lived with a very heavily resource guarded dog. I’ve overseen their play, both mild and rough, so I have experience with managing more aggressive dogs. Outside of that, physical affection and play is a must in my home and I’m more than willing to smell like dog at the end of the day if your dog likes to play!
Ratings and reviews
I cannot recommend Chris enough! My dog Stella is a loving dog with big emotions. She has always been weary with meeting new people, especially men, but Chris reassured me that he would take the extra step to build that rapport. My worries were gone when Stella took to him well, and they both brought great energy to the walks and drop in visits. Stella is a high needs doggo when it comes to her food, and medication, and Chris took all my directions and instruction well because the updates I received lessen my anxiety when all her food was eaten without a fuss. If you have stress or anxiety that your dog might be high maintenance rest assure that Chris will take care of it.
Christopher is incredibly patient, loving, and attentive with animals. He’s great with all kinds of pets, but he has a special love for dogs that really shows in how he interacts with them. Whether it’s dog walking, pet sitting, or drop-in visits, he always goes above and beyond to make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!
