Flexible schedule and love to walk

Pet care experience

In the last 3 years, I’ve taken care of ~20 puppies of all different breeds as well as adult dogs. I am physically active and love to take dogs on long walks or play fetch.

Christopher was amazing with our 3 dogs. They are a handful but he was great with all their individual personalities! We will definitely have him again! He sent us pics daily and gave us updates on how they were doing which meant a lot to us, knowing they were happy and safe! Thank you Christopher!!

Chris is very good with dogs. He plays with them consistently and takes them out on walks regularly! He's handled 5 of our dogs all at one time with care and sends regular updates!

Chris basically helped us raise our crazy dog. He's always my go-to person whenever I needed someone to watch Pixel because he's responsible, genuinely loves dogs, and is great at getting their energy out. He'll take Pixel to the dog park, long walks, or just play tug and fetch over and over again! I've seen Chris dog-sit many other dogs, so I know he can handle different sizes and different temperaments. I truly believe Chris will be a great caregiver to any dog.
