Pet care experience

love dogs, love being outside!

I live in Manhattan Beach and lead a very active lifestyle, spending a lot of time outdoors. I love going for long walks around the neighborhood, exploring the area, and enjoying the beach just minutes from my home. I have a car, so I’m flexible with locations for walks, drop-ins, and pet care visits. I live in a spacious apartment with a large yard that offers plenty of room for dogs to explore and play. While the yard is not fully fenced, it is surrounded by thick bushes that provide privacy and a natural boundary. Whether your dog enjoys outdoor adventures, long walks, or simply relaxing at home, they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and care during their stay with me!

Chris was very attentive and took great care of Luna. Luna is a hard pup to walk but Chris was able to give her regular walks without any problems. He gave us picture updates throughout her stay which helped relieve us of our worries. We also noticed that Luna had great rapport with Chris that we had not seen with other sitters. Luna had such a great time and we will definitely consider Chris for any future stays.

Chris took incredible care of our two pups while we were away. He is very responsive and implemented all the instructions we had to a tee. We’ll definitely be booking again, thanks Chris!

Christopher was fantastic for our 2 dogs. Also, he was so accommodating for us as he allowed for a super early dropoff before our early morning flight. He was very eager to learn about our dogs’ behavioral tendencies and habits in order to make sure that he could be prepared to provide the best care for them. He made sure they had fun inside and outside the house, and kept us updated with photos and videos. Both dogs loved spending time with him and they were excited when they saw him again after their stay with him! He’s trustworthy, enthusiastic, and caring— would recommend!

Our dog Albus is in love. Chris is phenomenal. Albus is a very big boy who’s mostly good but reactive with large male dogs. He’s also a counter surfer. Chris was unfazed and took such good care of Albus. Our flights home got rescheduled 3 times by the airline and Chris took the changes in pickup time with grace. I hope to be able to board Albus under Chris’ care again. It was a pleasure for all of us.

An absolute angel! Highly recommended. Christopher helped me out last minute and I couldn't be more grateful for him. I had a small crisis where I had to separate one of my dogs. He welcomed her in with loving arms, and I could tell right away he's an animal lover. He lives in a cute, clean place with plenty of space for dogs with a nice little back area that is completely fenced in. He sent pictures, updates and was quick to respond if I ever messaged him. Super professional, responsive, and my dog seems calm and happy when I came to pick her up - like she had just had a nice staycation :) Thank you so much!!
