Retired Trustworthy Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
Hello, this is John, Donna's husband. I am a recently retired, trustworthy and reliable dog / house sitter. I have many years of experience caring for my own dogs and others. I am very active and up for the task! As I don't work a full time corporate job anymore (30+ years in telecom), I would be able to spend a lot of time with your pup - walking, playing and just hanging out. As a homeowner in Carlsbad, your home will be well cared for while you are away. This would include watering plants, getting mail / packages, taking out trash and making the house look lived in. My preference is house sitting, no apartments please. I would welcome the opportunity to house sit and care for your dog and home!
Reviews
John went above and beyond. Sent us lots of pictures. Washed the bedroom sheets and towels. Super communicative and trustworthy. Almost don’t want to leave a review because he’s so good we want him to be available for us in the future and his popularity speaks for itself!
John took great care of our dogs and gave us the chance to take an extended time away without worrying about our pups. Thanks so much, John!
John is a wonderful pet sitter. He stayed with our three dogs (different sizes, ages and health needs) for nine days and took such great care of them. He is responsive, knowledgeable and he treated our home and pups as if they were his own. We received cute pics of our pups as they went on neighborhood walks, chilled at home with their fav toys, and sunbathed in the yard. We highly recommend John!!
Felt super comfortable and happy to have John watch JB

Safety, trust & environment
I will care for your dog(s) like they are my own! It's important to follow an existing schedule and build trust to bond with your pup. I have no problem sleeping with your dog if that is the typical arrangement. Also, perimeter safety is a priority, no getting out!
Information Donna & John C. would like to know about your pet
A meet and greet is highly recommended to meet your pup. At this time we can review all the details of care and any other home responsibility. Looking forward to meeting your pup!
A typical day
Happy to follow your existing routine if this works! Walking, playing, hanging out together. If your dog is a senior, we can do very short walks or whatever works best.

Availability
As I am retired, my schedule is very flexible! Ideally I can fit into your pups current sleep, feeding and walking schedule. This usually works best.
