Man's best friend's best friend

Pet care experience

I've had multiple dogs through childhood to now, of many breeds and sizes. With multiple dogs of my own, and a wonderful wife in the veterinary field, my experience includes basic training, medicine, and spoiling dogs rotten. Currently, I have a handful of dogs I watch regularly, both at my house and in their own. These dogs include a senior Rat Terrier and her younger Pitbull sister, a French Bulldog pair aged 14 months (who I've had to train in French since that's what is spoken at home) and 8 years, a middle aged Collie, a senior Black Lab, as well as the multitude of friends I'll occasionally do sitting for.

I needed someone to stop by and let my dog out during the middle of the day. My 1 year old French Bull Dog, Carson has issues with heat. As luck would have it while I was out of town we had a heat wave. We switched walks to hang time in a shady part of the backyard to make sure he had his outdoor time. Christopher was great about communicating and getting back to me. I wouldn't trust just anyone with Carson so it was a relief I found Christopher. I'll definitely be using him a again. Carson is looking forward to seeing him next time too! Thanks Christopher!

We were very happy with Chris, he came over in advance of the meeting to meet our dog, it's obvious Chris is a dog lover and is good with dogs. We will not hesitate to work with him again!

Information Christopher L. would like to know about your pet

Before watching your loveable pooch, I'd like to know their recall ability, how they do off leash, if they're dog aggressive, and if they do well with strangers. Please let me know what medications, if any, they need administered, as well as what type of flea preventative they are on. I have no breed preferences.

A typical day

We do daily walks, as well as fun games of fetch in our fenced yard. Occasionally, we'll do hikes up and down Cowles Mountain or Rancho Peñasquitos Canyon. Tug is also a frequently played game in our house. And I'm always ready for a good wrestling match. With my own dogs, we go to Fiesta Island, Dog Beach Ocean Beach, Dog Beach Coronado, Dog Beach Del Mar, as well as frequenting the multitude of dog parks in San Diego. Your loved ones are welcome to join us if it's something you're comfortable with!
