Life-long dog owner & lover

Pet care experience

I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life. With an exposure to a wide variety of breeds and personalities, I have a special gift for quickly making dogs feel safe and loved! My best friend Cooper is a 7-year-old Beagle who loves to sing with me. He currently lives with my mother in Baltimore. I am an actor from Baltimore, MD living in Rogers Park in Chicago. I recently completed my Master of Fine Arts degree in Acting at DePaul. When I am not on stage, I am also a substitute teacher for Chicago Public Schools, standardized patient for Northwestern University, and lead tours of space at the Adler Planetarium! My schedule allows me a lot of flexibility in availability to support your busy schedule. I have loved making friends with all of your furry family members!

This was our first rover experience and we were quite nervous about leaving our pup. However, Christopher was so wonderful and easy to deal with. He sent random updates and was just so kind and wonderful to Piper. We had sent Piper once to a big chain doggy day care type place and he came home a neurotic mess. I actually think Piper came back from these guys happier than when he left! Will definitely seek them out again.

Wonderful! Chris took great care of Charlie - even took him to a festival! I now have no worries about what to do with Chuck when I head out of town - except that Chris might be booked. 5+ stars!

Christopher took care of my cat and dog when I had to go out of town. I really appreciated his flexibility as my plans changed after the initial booking and am especially thankful his willingness to take my cat. Christopher is really nice and kept me updated with pictures! When I picked up my pets, they looked very happy! I hope to rebook with Christopher again!

Christopher did an amazing job for us! He was really calm with our dog and took care to welcome her into his home. She was really happy and content when we picked her up. We would definitely recommend him to others!
