Pet care experience
Dog lover here. I sadly don’t have time during the week to have one for my own. I would want to be there for my pup, and with my commute and work hours it just wouldn’t be fair to a furry companion. But, weekends I’m free to have a house guest at my house on an acre with a large fenced in back yard, or to be a guest at yours. Weekends are perfect for me to do a house visit and/or walk/run as well! Whenever the possibility rises for me to host/stay with a family or friends’ dog I jump at it. I grew up in a small town and was pretty much the known dog walker after school in the village. Other kids had paper routs, I had dog walking routes and appointments. I love the outdoors (hiking, walking or running). I’m happy to take a ride to find a trail with your dog if that’s something you feel comfortable with. I’m just as happy being active with a four legged friend as I am being more of an inside companion for those older and wiser family members. For me, hosting a dog (or house visiting/staying) would really be more about having a weekend fur companion than about making some extra money with this. I wish I had the weekday time for a dog so this is a perfect for for my weekends!
Reviews
Christopher house sat for us over a weekend, and on our return, it was as if we'd never left! Our critters were calm and relaxed, obviously had lots of play time and good care. The house was very neat, as well, and Christopher even stripped the bed and put the sheets and towels in the washer! We were very happy, and will definitely call on Christopher again!
Chris was very flexible and easy to communicate with and took great care of our dogs. They were so tired after a day of running around his beautiful and big backyard which is always a good thing for our two huskies! Chris even sent us picture updates while we were away which really put our mind at ease. We highly recommend Chris and would not hesitate to have our pups stay with him again!
I have known Christopher Morey for several years, in various capacities. A very special capacity is as our dog-sitter. As many know, a pet of any kind is truly a family member. When they can’t go away on vacation or for business trips, it can be truly sad to leave them alone. Our family has been very fortunate to have Chris as our dog sitter. We needed someone at the spur of the moment as a family member needed to withdraw their ability to take care of Ben, our 80 chocolate lab. We contacted Chris and asked him about his availability and willingness. Chris jumped at the chance. During our away time, we knew Ben was in trusted and caring hands. Chris would send us photos of Ben, inform us about Ben’s day, take him for walks, feed Ben appropriately and make sure Ben was comfortable. We asked Chris to spend time with Ben at home to help with our departure as Ben had not been away from the remainder of the family. Chris was more than willing to do so. Chris even made sure Ben FaceTimed us! Ben is also on several medications, and receives them at varied times. Chris made sure that Ben received those medications on time, as well as the appropriate dosage. I truly value, respect and trust Chris’ decisions and caretaking of Ben. Knowing Ben was in good hands made our time away from him and home a lot easier and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Chris to take care of any family member, especially those that provide us such comfort and joy.
Christopher is by far my first choice when I need a dog sitter. I have used his service on several occasions, the last one for a week. During that time, Chris kept the house neat and tidy and stayed in communication with me on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving the dog and house behind. Above all, Chris is trustworthy, and my dog love him. You will not be disappointed!!

Information Christopher M. would like to know about your pet
I would really like to know exactly what makes your dog happy as well as what makes your dog unhappy. You know your dog best and I really want to know those little things that will make for the best connection. It’s important to know if your pet is house trained. I don’t have a breed preference. I believe a pet is an individual and they have their own personality. So understanding that is far more important than the breed to me.
A typical day
I live in town and have plenty of sidewalks to do some waking and I’m also close to some off road trails to go for more of a hike-walk if that’s something your pup would like. If you are comfortable and there are dog friendly event happening in the area, I would be happy to bring your dog along with me.
