Availability

I'm currently working part-time and when I have a job to do, I'm only gone for 2 to 4 hours typically and then home the rest of the day. I don't work on weekends. (Please note: I turn off my phone between 10 and 11 pm each night and don't turn it on until about 9 am in the morning, so if you call or text me during those times, my response will be delayed).

Information JOHN B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any special needs. I have cared for my previous dog that had a bad back, so I built ramps for both my beds (see pictures). I have brushed my dog's teeth at night and could do that with yours as long as they are used to it and don't bite or growl at this. I am not comfortable doing injections.

A typical day

Most dogs just run around on my fenced property, but I can walk them if needed as the street I live on is very safe dead end and there are trails nearby in the Paradise Lake Conservation Area. I will also be happy to toss their ball or other toy for them or play tug-of-war with a rope if they like that.

I love dogs 🐕& will love yours too

Pet care experience

I have had 2 dogs over the past 17+ years and have really enjoyed them both even though they had very different personalities. Charlie, my previous dog, was friendly to humans, but more aggressive with other dogs at times. After he passed away, I really missed him, so in a few months I got my dog Sally who was a miniature Poodle mix rescue dog. (Due to advancing cancer symptoms, I had to recently put her down). I have also sat for other dogs in the past before signing up with Rover. I will take good care of your dog as well and I have a fully fenced double lot, so they can wander around to their heart's content. If they need to be walked, I can do that too since I live on a quiet dead end street with nearby trails. I work from home most of the day and when I am gone, the dogs will be put together in my spare bedroom. At night, your dog can sleep in my bedroom.

Fiona had another great stay with John! He sent great photo updates, and she clearly enjoyed playing and snuggling during her stay. John also reached out to check on a discrepancy in Fiona’s feeding guidelines, which I really appreciated! We’ll definitely book with him again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
