Behavior Pro, Handles Any Dog

I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old — walking, feeding, giving meds, brushing, and of course, plenty of playtime and cuddles! I have a 12-year-old husky of my own and love dogs of all sizes and personalities (the bigger the better!). I work in healthcare and specialize in behavior therapy, which helps me read your dog’s body language and make them feel calm, comfortable, and right at home. Since I work from home, your pup will get tons of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first! I only provide care in the client's home — house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walks. I don't offer sitting at my own place at this time. I'm a professional behavior analyst by trade, so I bring a level of comfort and skill with dogs that goes beyond typical pet care. I'm highly experienced and confident handling dogs with any temperament — anxious, reactive, high-energy, or just plain stubborn. In your home, I follow your routines exactly: feeding schedules, medication, potty habits, and any specific behavioral protocols you use. I'm observant of body language and stress signals, and I adjust my approach dog by dog rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Your home and pet's routine stay exactly as you left them! For walks, I’m an experienced handler — I’ve walked up to four 80+ lb huskies at once, so no size or strength limits here.

Christopher is a natural dog lover with a kind heart. We felt at ease from the first moment we met him and his dog Stark was so excited to be introduced to my girls. They were treated like “family” during their stay with plenty of snuggles and outdoor walks/exercise along with many photos of their daily routine. I felt 100% comfortable leaving Abby & Shelby in his care, I’ve found my go to Rover sitter for the future! Thanks again.

Chris has been taking care of my pup for over 6 years! He’s incredibly attentive and always makes sure my sweet boy gets plenty of exercise from long walks or playtime. Boon absolutely loves visiting him, and gets so excited every time we arrive! Chris is also great about sending photos and videos. I always know Boon is getting plenty of cuddles and love.

Chris is a cool and confident owner and I felt like my dog Lux was in good hands with him. You can tell he’s grown up with dogs his whole life. His husky Stark is sweet and well-behaved. Definitely will be booking with him again!

Reliable, considerate, and fun - Chris is no stranger when it comes to dog-sitting! He has decades of experience as a loving dog dad, and will care for your pup as if it were his own. Chris has been my dog’s emergency contact since adoption, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! My dog adores him and his family.

Schedule

I'm self-employed, which gives me a lot of flexibility with my schedule so I can build visits around your pet's routine instead of squeezing them into a rigid 9-5. Whether it's an early morning walk, a late evening drop-in, or something last-minute, I can usually make it work. Your dog gets someone who shows up on time and isn't rushing off somewhere else!
