Pet care experience

Came from a family of dog breeders and dog groomers. I have been around dogs all of our lives and can handle most sized dogs. I lost my beloved dog in 2025 and are not quite ready to take the leap to find a new one - yet. In the meantime- I would enjoy walking- sitting- loving and taking care of your dog as if it was our own- when you are not able to

Kaylee (Doberman pup) had a great time with John (and family). Kaylee didn't miss me at all. John was very flexible scheduling this sitting (superbowl LX).

John lives close to us and was recommended by a friend and neighbor. He is great with our dog. He keeps our dog at his home when we go away. This beats the kennel and we always know our dog will be walked, fed properly and well taken care of. A few times we have used him for just walking and feeding as well. He is trustworthy

John has walked my dogs several times. Anytime we go away- we call John and we know our 2 dogs will be fed and walked. We have reached out to him on short notice on several occassions and he always comes through for us. They are both very excited to see him. Our larger dog sometimes jumps up on people to say hello. I love the way he handles that.
