Services

Christopher can care for

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old

Availability

I have 4 clients town and one out of town. I work a flexible schedule so can accommodate both of them and many more. I would like to do less driving work and work more with rover, as it just wears the car out. I also sell drawings sometimes when inspired.

At this time, I'm not currently having pets stay at my house. Maybe in the future I will host animals. I don't have the right space yet.

Information Christopher R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special requirements. Thank you I would really appreciate it as rover requires 25 word min for this part of my advertisement. lol

A typical day

In a average day, I would feed your dog then take him/her/them for a walk, maybe go to the dog park. We could play fetch or keep away-not favorite lol. We might go for a run or use my skateboard too.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Chris. I work in the gig economy- this means I run an Airbnb, drive uber and clean houses. Ask me about these other services. I have taken care of Many dogs and cats in town and am looking for more clients. I can water plants, feed fishes and check the mail. I also might just clean something in your house for fun while I’m there. I like to draw and can draw your pet if you want too. I have enjoyed taking care of pets when I travel far away and would be happy to look after your pets here or wherever.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
