Christopher can care for
Availability
I have a flexible, open schedule right now, so I can fit walks, drop-ins, and visits throughout the day and week. I prefer early mornings and evenings for walks to keep pets safe and comfortable in the Arizona heat, and I'm happy to work around your pet's routine, whether that's a quick midday potty break or daily exercise.

About Christopher T.
Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I follow your instructions closely and always double-check that doors and gates are secured before and after every visit. On walks I keep dogs leashed and under control, watch the pavement temperature, and carry water on hot days. I keep cats fed, watered, and their litter clean, and I send photos and a quick update every visit so you always know your pet is safe and content.
Information Christopher T. would like to know about your pet
Let me know ahead of time if your pet has any special needs, medications, allergies, fears, or behaviors I should account for — the more I know, the better I can keep them comfortable and safe. I'm especially comfortable with large and high-energy dogs, but I'm happy to care for pets of all sizes and temperaments. It also helps to know your pet's routine, feeding schedule, where their supplies are, and how they typically react to new people.
A typical day
A typical day with me is active and full of attention. For walks, we'll get out during the cooler morning or evening hours for a good loop around the neighborhood — enough exercise to come home happy and tired, with plenty of sniff breaks along the way (sniffing is how dogs read the news). On drop-ins, I'll handle the essentials first — food, fresh water, potty or litter — then spend the rest of the visit on play: fetch, tug, a little training practice, or just good belly rubs and company for the cuddlier types. I read each pet's energy and adjust. High-energy dogs get more movement and games; shy or senior pets get a calmer, gentler pace and lots of patience. Whatever we do, I'll send photos and a quick update so you can see your pet having a good time while you're away.

Poodle dad, great with big dogs
Pet care experience
I've owned and cared for dogs my whole life, currently a 70-lb standard poodle who keeps me active daily. I'm comfortable handling large and high-energy breeds, managing leashes and walks safely, and keeping a consistent feeding, exercise, and potty routine. I'm currently studying for my EMT certification, so I stay calm and level-headed if anything unexpected comes up — your pet's safety is always my first priority. I'm reliable and detail-oriented, and I always keep owners updated with photos and notes. I also handle basic cat care — feeding, fresh water, litter, and play during drop-in visits.

Chris is hands down one of the most trustworthy and patient people I know. He has a natural way with animals and always treats them like his own. If you’re looking for someone who will actually give your dog genuine attention, exercise, and love while you're away, Chris is your guy. 10/10 recommend!
