Full time sitter, big fenced yard!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Chris. I’m originally from Massachusetts, and moved down to Austin in 2015. My wife and I now live in Circle C with our two small dogs and two cats adopted from APA and Austin animal center. I grew up with animals and have taken care of pets all my life. My wife and I have also taken care of/fostered many dogs ranging from 6 week old puppies to senior dogs, as well as kittens and adult cats - so we are familiar with pet care routines including medication administration(oral, topical, and injection), basic grooming, as well as some simple training. I am an avid animal lover and your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I will be taking care of your pets as if they were my own.

Christopher communicated daily with pictures and updates on our pup. We could clearly see in the pictures that our dog was having the time of her life. We were actually worried that she might not want to come home with us! We will definitely use Christopher again in the future!!!

Christopher could not have been more professional, responsible, and organized. He has a warm way about him, and it was clear that our puppy was taken care of with love and attention. We will definitely go back to Christopher the next time.

Chris is a great sitter! He's had my puppy twice now and is my go-to when I need her cared for. This time he also picked her up and dropped her off which was a massive convenience. The pictures he sends are also very appreciated - you can tell that all the dogs are well looked after.

Our dog had a fantastic stay. Christopher kept us up to date with photos and we know our dog enjoyed staying there. Thank you very much.

Safety, trust & environment

A meet and greet is recommended for dogs prior to booking for new clients. The pets are usually much more comfortable being dropped off at our house if they’ve already been here before! We welcome your pet to free roam the house and enjoy cuddles on the couch. We have a big fenced yard where your dog can enjoy ample play time with other dogs. For cat boarding, we usually only board at most 2 cats at a time and will have a dedicated room for new cats as we know cats can take a while to warm up, and having their own space will help them adjust.

Information Christopher P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs that I need to account for! Since we have dogs and cats at home, it’d be great to know your pet’s past experience with dogs and cats as well. :)

A typical day

We usually board multiple dogs at a time, we also have two dogs of our own to keep your fur baby company. So they will enjoy plenty of socialization during the day.
