Pet care experience

Experienced Animal Care

I love animals but unfortantly live in a place where I am unable to have my own. I am flexible with my availability, because I work for myself. I am an energetic person and I love going on runs and seeing the sites. Your fur-ball would have a great time and get all of their energy out when booking with me. Animals need some time to get out of the house just like people, I would provide that type of service. I do not like being cooped up in a home, I like to see as much as I can by going far and wide. A skill that I posses is that I can pilot a single engine plane. I am also an avid runner.

Craig took great care of my boy Hank. He was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I would book again.

Dog Walking • Jun 18, 2025

Craig got the dogs out and well exercised today. He navigated the walk through the neighborhood, during a time of day when there are other dogs on their afternoon walks—even one that was off leash. I’ll definitely be rebooking.

House Sitting • Dec 21, 2024

Craig is an Outstanding Dog Sitter! We couldn’t be happier with the care Craig provided for our 9-year-old Border Collie while we were away over the Christmas break. Our dog loves going to the park, catching balls, and running, and Craig made sure she got plenty of exercise and attention. It was clear when we returned that he was happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Craig’s communication throughout our trip was excellent—he kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us peace of mind knowing our furry family member was in great hands. Craig’s love for the outdoors and active lifestyle, including his hobbies like skiing and river rafting, really resonated with our high-energy dog. If you’re looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive dog sitter, we highly recommend Craig. He went above and beyond, and we’ll definitely be asking him to help again in the future!

Craig was great! We had Craig sit overnight for our dog and we are very particular about our space and how we care for our dog. Craig was great with everything and really easy to work with. We would definitely recommend Craig to care for your animals!

Craig has been a long time pet sitter for my husband and I. We have a 4 year old golden retriever mix, Toby. He is always excited and happy to see Craig. I couldn’t think of anyone better to watch our Toby while we are away. Craig is very caring and is always quick to reply with updates when we ask. We are very confident and relaxed knowing that Toby is getting his daily walks and getting played with when we can’t be there to do so. Your dog will be in great hands with Craig. I would recommend him to anyone!
