Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH Dog Walker East Austin
I've had dogs my entire life, 3 decades of experience, including raising golden retriever puppies in our household and litters upon litters of kittens. though I would count the last 12 years since I was in college as heavy experience with dogs (and cats) of all kinds. I have personally had a rottweiler mix for 9 years, and currently have a 4 year old 105lb hound mix and an 3 year old 40lb cattle dog mix, as well as a 1 year old cat. I have helped different partners over the years raise anything from a 4lb chihuahua, a catahoula mix, and a french bulldog. Additionally I have bottle fed and raised several litters of kittens and fostered several cats and dogs over the years before locating them to forever homes. I don't have formal dog training experience but I am confident in my ability to love and care for dogs and cats of all types. I am self-employed and my hours are incredibly flexible as I work from home. I live in East Austin.

I live with my partner and our 3 dogs so for dog sitting I would prefer to drop into or stay in your home but am happy to do so!
Ratings and reviews
We had such a great experience and couldn’t be happier. The care and attention Benny, Mochi, and Luna received was obvious from the start. Our dogs were so excited during visits and clearly felt comfortable and loved, which gave us total peace of mind. Everything felt thoughtful and reliable, and we came home to three very happy pups. We’ll definitely be booking again and highly recommend!!
I can't thank Christopher enough for the intense help with my cat Niko. Christopher replied promptly and even agreed to come last minute, at late hours, to put Niko on bed ( yes, my cat is one of those that meows loudly at the early hours until everyone is up to let him outside) every night. He was warm, punctual ( even though I never requested him to), communicated with me promptly, sent me pics and videos of Niko so I could see him! I was very fortunate to find him, and he is highly recommended to all Rover community!
Chris is a loving and responsible parent to his pets (cats and dogs), has had pets his entire life and loves all animals. Helping others is also a great quality Chris possesses.
Chris is a great dog dad and animal lover. He loves every dog/cat he meets and gets along well with all of them. He’s super active and easy going and would be a great Walker/sitter for your pets.
