Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog shelter volunteer
Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and for the past 2.5 years, I have worked at a dog shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in handling, walking, feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and providing enrichment for dogs with a variety of needs. I am more than comfortable working with energetic puppies, shy or nervous dogs, large dogs, and senior dogs who require special attention. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience while giving dog owners peace of mind.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my top priority when caring for dogs. My own dog who recently passed away, as well as my shelter experience, have taught me how to recognize body language, manage introductions, handle dogs safely on walks, and respond calmly in any situation. I am consistently able to carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household routines. When caring for a dog in a client’s home, I treat both the home and the dog with the utmost respect and professionalism. I believe trust is earned through consistency, communication, and dependable care, and I strive to make every dog feel comfortable, secure, and loved.
Ratings and reviews
Christopher cared for my pug. My pug adores him. Christopher is caring, punctual, and respectful. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional dog walker/sitter.

Schedule
I am currently home from college for the summer and have high availability throughout the week and the weekend. I am accustomed to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and providing consistent care throughout the day. I understand the importance of reliability and communication, and I work hard to ensure that each dog’s routine is followed as prescribed by the owner.
