Dogs are better than most people

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm John. I'm the proud father of Darryl, a four year old Lab / Blue Heeler mix. Darryl is a very relaxed fella who gets along well with both male and female dogs alike. My home has been dog friendly to all pups for the past ten years. Darryl and I used to live in Colorado where it was very common for friends to drop off their pooches anywhere from a few hours to a few days. I guess what I'm saying is that we're used to having guests. My part time work is done from home, so I'll be able to give your pup the time and attention he/she needs. I have experience watching dogs of all types: small and large dogs, puppies, older dogs, dogs with anxiety and behavioral challenges, dogs who require medication administered, dogs with food allergies, etc.

John has walked our 2 dogs quite a few times. He always takes them on a good walk. He informs us of anything we may want to be aware of.

John exceeded my expectations in all facets of Duncan’s care. Lengthy walks, proper nourishment, and visits to the dog park with his pup were all included in the daily routine. This is who you want looking after your dog while you’re away.

10000/10 experience. John spoiled my girl in the best way. She was sad to leave! Thank you so much!

John was easy to coordinate with for our pup’s walk. He arrived on time and sent a photo during the walk.

I have a fenced yard at my home so you can rest assured your pooch will have access to the outdoors even when we aren't headed out for a romp in the neighborhood. My buddy Darryl is on high alert for squirrels at all times so I understand the importance of paying attention and looking after your family member.

Information John C. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know if your dog is taking flea/tick medication. Ticks are very prevalent in IL during the summer. It would also be helpful to know if they have any triggers for aggression such as bones, toys or meal time.

A typical day

I take my own dog to the dog park twice a day. You can count on me bringing your dog as well assuming you are okay with a dog park field trip.

I'm currently working part time and scheduling my days around walking my own pooch Darryl. If your dog is friendly and likes going to the dog park I visit two different locations daily. If neighborhood walks are preferred I live on a quiet street located in the Maplebrook I subdivision.
