🐾 Welcome to John and Ilene's Dog Haven! 🐾 Hello there, fellow dog lovers! I'm John, your friendly neighborhood dog enthusiast and proud Rover dog sitter. Nestled in the heart of Lynnwood, my home is not just a house; it's a haven for furry friends seeking a home away from home. 🏡 Safe and Sound: With a fenced yard, safety is guaranteed. Your dog can explore freely and enjoy the outdoors in a secure environment. 💼 Work-from-Home Buddy: As a remote worker, I'm around 24/7 to keep your dog company. Whether it's playtime or a midday stroll, your pup's happiness is my top priority. 🤝 Personalized Care: I tailor my care to your dog's unique personality.

Open communication ensures you can relax, knowing your pup is happy and safe. 🐶 About Me: I'm a dog enthusiast with almost 5 years of professional Rover experience. When not caring for dogs, you can find me watching football or eating out. Ready for a paw-some experience?

John was great! My dogs seemed happy, he was flexible and communicative. I got many updates and pictures of my dogs. I would definitely book with him again if he would have my dogs back! Excellent experience.

During our pups stay with them, John sent us the pictures and videos of our pups daily. We saw our dogs having fun with other dogs at his place. We are really grateful that he provided safety and happiness to our dogs and us. Thank you so much!

TLDR; John is amazing, go for it! Our golden, Chikki, stayed with John for 1 day care, 1 day overnight boarding and 1 long stay - 6 nights so far. * John is professional and is prompt with responses. He made sure that he was available for pick up and drop off window - no waiting / coordination etc. always a smooth experience. He even sends reminders for an upcoming visit! I am able to trust that there won’t be any last minute surprises. * He sends a lot of updates and it does not taper off on a long stay. ( my previous experience is always that updates get less frequent as time goes). But John sent pictures and videos even on 5th day of stay which I really appreciated. * Chikki is playful girl so if you leave her in the backyard , she ‘ll be happy and running. From my experience , I mostly only get such pictures from sitters. But she’s not playing the whole time right? is she eating ok? Is she settling at home? My favorite thing about John is he sends food/ sleep updates. He sends pictures of her meal, her naps and cuddles! It definitely kept me at peace throughout my trip away from Chikki. I highly recommend John and would love to use him for Chikki again.

We really appreciate Johns help while we were out for a day trip. Toffee is a 4m old crazy pup, he is still under potty training which can be challenging but John took great care of him, sent us lots of photos, and took him out for potty as frequent as possible. I would definitely recommend John!
