Full time dog dad

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs all sizes. I've had five dogs in my life, which were all very healthy and well trained. From 6 pounds to 80+ pounds. I have learned to take care of dogs all my life (different breeds and different sizes). For the most part I' am very good at reading a dog's body language to see what it wants or needs. Also, I have done dog sitting in my previous years for family members that go on vacation.

Christopher took great care of Taki for a long stay. He followed our instructions and was communicative. We hope to send Taki to Christopher in the future!

Chris has been amazing! He is my regular sitting on Rover. He’s responsible, flexible and takes great care of my pup when I am away. I know he’s in good hands and I trust him completely with my little one. Schroader always comes back in a happy mood when he stays with Chris. He’s the best sitter, hands down. 5 out of 5 stars.

I needed someone to take care of our pup while visiting Philadelphia because of the hot heat, and then we found Christopher. He checked off every box. Any time you need someone to take your dog off your hands down this is the guy.
