Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment complex that is very dog friendly. The property is gated and provides multiple open areas for pets to hang out, go to the bathroom, and/or exercise. My home has multiple rooms if you require your pet to be crated or would like their own space. I also live close to Lady Bird trail for walks and a couple blocks away from a dog park if your pet loves to be social! My dog and I average about 3-5 miles throughout the day and can accommodate your pet's needs as well!

Information Christopher B. would like to know about your pet

It would be great to know more about your dog! Do they like walks? Or are they more chill and like to cuddle/hang around home. Please also let me know if there are any special needs that I should be aware of if you are boarding.

A typical day

If you are boarding your pet, I start every day with a morning walk with Gary. I make sure he's fed and well situated if I am working in the office. Depending on my workload I will walk a lap in my neighborhood during the day. We go on evening walks around the area or the Lady Bird Trail, and will stop by the dog park my by apartment so Gary can socialize and run around with other dogs in the neighborhood.

Your Pet Deserves A Vacation Too!

Pet care experience

Hello Friends! I'm a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 5 years of caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I live two blocks from a dog park and right off the Lady Bird Lake trail, so if your pup loves to walk or go on a sniffari, say less. However, if your pet prefers lounging/cuddles, I’m happy to keep things calm and cozy at home; after all, it's their vacation too! I’m extremely attentive to each pet’s needs, routines, and quirks, and always treat pets like family. Whether it's active play or chill companionship, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

Christopher was great! My dog came home well taken care of. He got lots of walks and play time! Can’t recommend Christopher enough!

Chris couldn't have been better! My dog, Cudi, got along with him and his dog famously. He was well fed, well rested, and well exercised. Chris provided photos and was extremely helpful in every aspect of housing my dog. I strongly recommend Chris as a Rover and will definitely be using Chris again to board Cudi whenever I leave.

Christopher did a fantastic job watching my timid Rosie for a few days in Austin!!!! He sent over pictures and gave me frequent updates. Rosie got lots of great walks along the river. Thanks so much Christopher, would totally recommend him.

Chris was overall amazing. He was friendly and accommodating. My dog seemed to not want to leave and had a good time in his care. Will use again for my overnight needs.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
