Reliable, loving dog and cat sitter

Pet care experience

Hi there, my name is Christopher, and as a Rover Premier sitter, I live in Greenwich Village with Griffin, my black labrador, having previously built up a wonderful client base in San Francisco. Animals are a great passion of mine, I love their company, and try to ensure they have fun on every visit with plenty of cuddles and playtime. I mostly do drop-in visits for cats, but I also cater to dogs and do both drop-ins and walks. I strive to ensure my clients can go away, have fun, and not worry, so that means providing a reliable and attentive service while dropping in on your beloved pet. I am also one of the Rover Premier pet sitters who has undergone advanced screening. I have experience with elderly pets and giving medications. If you're away, I'm happy to pick up mail and water plants during my visits if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Why I love dog sitting A lifetime dog lover, I have one dog of my own. Griffin is my 11-year-old labrador. My experience administering medication Yes, I have no problem administering medication.

Christopher has been absolutely amazing, dedicated and caring in his attention to my cat, Mika. I am so grateful to have booked with him. I can see how much Mika connected with him. I really appreciated his updates and very cute photos. He has been prompt, responsible and trustworthy. Deep gratitude to you, Christopher!!
