Safety, trust & environment

I will always make sure that all windows and doors are secured so no little escape artists on my watch! And that Collars/harnesses are secured to minimise the risk of slipping collars.

Information christopher d. would like to know about your pet

I’m comfortable with all sorts of dogs and cats, just let me know in advance if they bite or scratch so I know what to expect :)

A typical day

Most dogs love belly rubs, it puts them into a bit of a happy trance which is very cute. I love affectionate dogs but don’t mind shy ones too!

10 acre private woods, animal lover

Pet care experience

I have 10 acres of private woodland for dog walking. I've taken care of all shapes/sizes and ages of dogs from puppies to old dogs that struggle to walk. My favourite dog is a labrador. On the cat front, my family have always had bengals who you need to be a bit of a mind reader to handle correctly/affectionately. My mum has ran a vet practice down in england for >25 years so I've spent a lot of time with animals growing up.

Great job by Christopher. Quick response to booking request, good pics of the walk and nice updates about what the pooch got up to. No hassle or stress.

We booked Chris to look after our dog Goldie, whilst we were away on holiday for 10 days. This is the first time we have had someone stay in our house looking after our dog whilst away. We didn't really know what to expect and were quite hesitant about it. However, we should not have had any concerns whatsoever. Chris was fantastic. He kept us up to date with Goldie whilst we were away sending photos of Goldie having the time of her life whilst we were away, she too was having a holiday, with new exciting walks! Chris went above and beyond, and took really good care of Goldie, he even watered our tomato plants and hoovered up the dog hair before we came oome If anyone is thinking about putting their dog in a kennel, this is definitely a better option, your dog gets to stay at home in a familiar place. I would highly recommend Chris, knowing he takes great care of your pets whilst away. We will definitely be booking again on our next holiday.

Christopher was absolutely amazing, Bijoux, Minnie and Bruce loved him. He looked after the house hoovered and communicated well. Being able to go away and leave family into strangers care is daunting. Christopher is a true gem, we will be inviting him back when he is available.
