Christopher can care for
Availability
I structure visits around your pet’s normal routine so nothing changes while you’re away. I can handle daily walks, meals, playtime, and bathroom breaks on schedule. I send updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing and that their day stayed consistent. My goal is to make each visit predictable and low-stress, fitting seamlessly into your pet’s usual rhythm.

Reviews
Chris was beyond fantastic! He watched my anxious dog for four days. The first day London proved to be challenging but Chris hung in there, was uber patient, and won her over! London is fearful of rain and storms and loud noises and Chris kept her calm enough that she didn’t need any trazadone during the storms. What a feat! I have the most adorable pictures of a relaxed London and “pals for life” of the two of them. Chris stayed in communication with me, drastically reducing my stress and guilt at leaving her home. He was very conscientious and left my house very neat and clean, even cleaning up the poop in the yard! Additionally, Chris is just a truly nice and thoughtful person. I could not have been happier with his services and I plan to call on him every time and just hope he’s available. I hate to give this honest review since I’m sure people will want to snap him up!
Christopher took such great care of our dog, Mochi. He kept us updated with thoughtful messages and great communication, which made it easy to relax while we were away. The best part was picking Mochi up and seeing how happy and comfortable he was. You could tell he was treated like family. It's not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Christopher made it feel effortless. We'd happily book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter.
You are the best! Loved having you hang with the animals again. Will def book in the future!
Chris was wonderful! I can’t say enough good things. My cats are very shy and he had them literally eating out of his hands on day one. He kept me informed with photos and texts and was so gentle and kind. I felt completely safe and full of trust that he had them comfortable during the heatwave that hit this week. He even did some random house tasks. He is incredible. Book him. Pay him. Tip him. It’s more than worth it.
