Pet care experience

Patient, Active, Big Dog Lover 🦴🐾

I love big dogs, especially GSDs, but have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I grew up with several labs. I raised a German Shepherd from 8 weeks to 10 years that sadly passed away a couple years back. Needless to say I dont mind being covered in dog hair. I have experience with various personalities, separation anxiety, cuts/injuries, and administering medication. I typically watch one or multiple dogs at a time from the same owner. I will only watch dogs from different owners if the dogs are all dog friendly and all owners agree to it. I enjoy going on walks, hikes, and going to parks, but can also just hang out with your pup if that’s what’s desired. I work remote full time and set my own schedule, allowing flexibility all hours and days. I live in a home with plenty of room and a fenced in backyard. Trails are 20 yards away. Reach out if you’d like to set up a meet and greet!

Chris is an awesome dog-sitter and a really nice guy. I needed someone to stay with my partner's recently anxious dog so I could go to a doctor's appointment. Lola (the dog) thought Chris was great. He took her for a walk and helped her stay relaxed all day. I highly recommend him!

We are so grateful for Chris' care of our older dog while being out of the country. We didn't pack the right medication and we ran out of dog food. But Chris took care of it so we didn't have to worry. He took Zeke on daily walks and sent pictures letting us know how he was doing.

Christopher did an amazing job watching Sunny! We got so many photos of Sunny smiling and having an amazing time.

Christopher was an amazing dog sitter for Sunny, and I felt so comfortable leaving Sunny with him. He sent updates throughout, and I am looking forward to using him again!

We are very pleased to have found Chris. He was great with our senior dog who can have some anxiety with new places. Chris communicated well and is very kind. Zeke looks forward to his next visit!

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs are always welcome in my home! I have plenty of space with a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed on the couch and in the bed. I’m easy to work with, patient (some dogs just like to sniff more than they walk), communicative, and can adjust to any preferred care strategy to provide a trustworthy service while you’re away.

A typical day

Your dog and I will go on as many walks as desired, or hikes! Many belly rubs, scratches, and cuddles. Outside and inside time playing and attention to keep your dog smiling or sleeping from having too much fun.
