Citizen Hound

Pet Sitter

I started 6 years ago. Every year the level of professionalism, abilities, and quality of the CH dog walking team have gone up. This business is run with heart because it is the perfect mix; it allows us to spend our working lives doing something we love; we're surrounded by dogs with their love and energy; it gives me the opportunity to both learn and teach, which is a passion of mine; it allows me to compete with other businesses that I think we can be better than. I spend an inordinate amount of time working on this business because my idea of what it can be for you and your dog is bigger than what's out there. If we're not the best we're damn sure working toward it constantly. And if we're not right for you I'll help you find someone who is. Read more

    CH's five star rating is well deserved. We've been with them since our dog was a pup and it's been a great experience. David and team have been instrumental in shaping our dog's personality and giving him the guidance he needs. They did a great job of integrating him into their groups and making sure he was socializing properly. He's a big dog, with tons of spirit, but has been carefully schooled to know the right time and place for working off his built-up energy. That kind of attention to detail is hard to come by.
    We highly recommend others to give them a chance.

    Citizen Hound and our dog walker, Jack, are the best! Our corgi goes on amazing adventures every day and it's so fun seeing the pictures of her outings posted on Facebook. It makes my husband and I feel great knowing she's having so much fun while we are at work! And not only does Jack take wonderful care of our dog, he looks after her humans, too! When I got home yesterday, I realized I had locked myself out and couldn't access my spare keys until much later that night. I texted Jack to see if he happened to be in the neighborhood and could let me in. He was, and got me into our place within 10 minutes! I insisted on tipping him, but he wouldn't accept any money from me. It was a very kind and gentlemanly thing to do! Thanks for running such a great company and employing top notch people!

    This whole team is the greatest. From the very beginning we knew that David had an extreme love and care for dogs. He spent time getting to know and work with us and our pup as we were first time dog owners. Monty, our pooch, is very large but always came back completely tired out after a long fun day and or weekend with the team as well as trained up a bit. We were introduced to Erik who became not only our trusted overnight sitter anytime we went out of town, but also one of Monty's best buds and we always knew that our "kid" was taken care of (say hi to Salty). The whole team is trustworthy, helpful, accommodating and extremely caring for our special dude. We recently moved which is the only reason we are not still with Citizen and we and Monty miss them all the time. Citizen Hound is the best.
