Highlights
Pet care experience
Seasoned dog lover at your service
I’ve been a lifelong dog owner. As a child the dog care was always my chore and I have participated in several training and obedience schools. As an adult I’ve owned 8 dogs of all sizes and breeds. All of their training and care was my responsibility. I have a long term plans to own my own rescue for senior animals.
Cat care experience

Kristopher also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I own large home in Arcata with 2 acres of yard for animals to play. My flexibility allows me to care for your pets in your own home which makes the experience less stressful for them.
Ratings and reviews
I am pleased to provide a recommendation for Kris. We began using him to walk our two dogs when he was in middle school and as he got older we used him to house-sit and care for our pets (2 dogs and 2 cats), sometimes for several weeks at a time as we traveled. He is wonderful. He is always reliable, responsible and respectful and is really terrific with all our pets. We tease him that he is the "Pet Whisperer". I highly endorse him and would be happy to provide even more specific examples of the way he has provided pet care for us, even when our old dog could no longer use his back legs, Kris was so gentle and caring with him.
Kristopher is the ultimate dog lover, and is a very responsible and caring human. He dreams of one day having a dog rescue and has also worked in hospitality, so understands how to work in service and with people too. Walking dogs on the beach may just be his very favorite activity, and I would trust him with all of mine in a heart beat. He is very protective, can stand up for them if needed, and will treat them with kind loving care.
Kristopher is a loving pet owner to his own animals and I’m happy for him to take care of my dogs. He gives my dog alot of attention and outdoors time. My pup is always happy to see him. 10/10 recommend having him take care of your dog if you want them to be well cared for, loved on, and exercised.
