Christian Friedman (owner's son, pictured at age 6), with his dog Chupa! !

Junior Pet Sitter
Christian, now age 10, follows in mom's footsteps as an animal lover and has had pet care under his belt since toddlerhood! From helping with the care of pets at home, to accompanying mom to work at vet hospitals over the years, and occasionally tagging along on pet sitting visits (w/permission only!), Christian has made an excellent junior pet sitter and helper! Christian is great with pets of all kinds, but his favorite activites are playing with cats and taking dogs on walks. He especially loves small dogs, especially his own little dog Chupa!
