Doggy Day Care • Jul 10, 2026

John did a fantastic job with Bella. He took her on several walks, kept us well informed of her day with pictures and followed all instructions that we provided. He genuinely cared about our sweet girl! Definitely recommend John!

House Sitting • Jul 07, 2026

John was kind, attentive, and caring to our shy little dog, Milo, and our crazy goofus, Ozzie. He sent us lots of photos and videos during our week away, and the house was left in immaculate condition. We couldn't be more pleased.

Dog Walking • Jun 21, 2026

We have two dogs who can be a bit reactive when walked by leash. My wife and I were instructed by professional dog trainers on how to keep them calm and under control when they see another dog. John picked up the training methods quickly and had both of our guys exhibiting their best behavior. John is a natural, and our dogs adore him. We are extremely pleased with his calmness and attention. Five stars!

Safety, trust & environment

It's very important that you hire someone that will care for the animal as their own and I do:-) okay safety and love are top priority for me. I know how to give animals medicine oral or injectable or just love and play with them.:-)

A typical day

I like to do what the owner does so that they feel more comfortable and stimulated. I can relax with them and shower them with love and I can play with them outside or inside tug of war, ball throwing, walking and grooming them. Whatever the owner does I will mimic.

Well I would get to know ahead of time their schedule if they take medicine orally or injectable or not at all, what is their eating pattern, how are treats given out any special needs the dog or cat might have Etc. I'll follow your directions. I will keep your place neat and clean so when you come home you can smile:-)
