Pet care experience
Hello all! My name is Craig and I'm 31 years old. I love and have been around dogs my entire life and I'm super excited to be going on my 6th year on Rover! My wife's name is Catherine and we are parents to a two year old boy and a newborn baby girl. Over the course of my life I have experienced and cared for animals of all different behaviors and sizes. I've watched Chihuahuas and Yorkies all the way up to Bernese Mountain Dogs and Great Danes. My number one priority is to ensure the pet(s) and owner(s) are completely comfortable and satisfied with our care.
Reviews
Tippy had a great time!
Craig is amazing! We felt so comfortable leaving him with our dog who is paralyzed in his hind legs. Craig was able to express him and show him lots of affection. We definitely will be using him again in the future!
Our dog, Daisy loves staying with Craig. And we love knowing Daisy is in excellent care!
Craig has been an amazing dogsitter for my Daphne. She loves playing around his family which shows how good he is with caring for dogs. He is definitely worth getting. Its also soooo convenient that if he is close enough to your house, he can pickup and dropoff your pup. He is definitely my go to person to watch over my pup! I'd give him 10 stars if I could!

Safety, trust & environment
I currently live in an apartment with a spacious amount of surroundings near me. There's a fenced-in dog park that is about a 5 minute walk from my apartment which will provide the necessary exercise for any dog or puppy (with owner's approval).
Home
Information Craig H. would like to know about your pet
I love all dogs and all breeds! I don't have any preference on size. My biggest concern is if there's any dietary restrictions (grain-free, food allergies, etc.) and if there's any exercise restrictions. I would love to know all the quirks and normalities of your dog. Does he/she bark a lot? Does she/he pull on the leash aggressively? I just love being prepared and the experience is always a much more positive one when information is relayed prior!
A typical day
• Go on walks around a dog-friendly neighborhood • Be taken to a local, walking-distance dog park (will not go unless approved by owner) • Play with a various amount of toys provided by owner(s) • Be active and engaging both indoors and outdoors • Be stress-free and relax (because they're on a vacation as well!)

Availability
Our schedule is flexible and we're easy to communicate and work with. Read below for some adjustments to our schedule: We do not offer in-home meet and greets. Due to some unfortunate encounters we will conduct all meet and greets outside in our courtyard area. I will show you what door my apartment is during the meet and greet so you know where drop-off and pickup will be. It's easier for my wife, children, and the possible pets I might be currently boarding this way. Thank you very much for your understanding. Pick-ups or drop-offs after 7 pm can be discussed but we prefer earlier than this. We have a one year old that we're trying to keep on a proper sleeping schedule and his bed time routine is a priority to us. We have these preferences in place but we're always trying our best to accommodate appropriately. Please communicate with us and we can try and find a common solution, thank you!
