Highlights
Pet care experience
Self-proclaimed ‘dog whisperer’
Grew up raising 5 golden retrievers and recently took on the challenge of raising my own Portuguese Water Dog. Successfully fostered two kittens before buying my own house. Sitted for some neighbors growing up which included German Shepards, Bernese mountain dogs and Cocker Spaniels.

Safety, trust & environment
Taz plays and walks well with other dogs but I prefer to get your permission first before attempting to introduce him to your pup. I’m always refreshing the water as to make sure everyone’s hydrated. Let me know ahead of time if you have any house rules you’d like me to enforce so they don’t develop any bad habits while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Our son was getting married and I didn’t know what I was going to do! Two rescue dogs that need someone amazing…JOHN Thank you
John sat our puppy over the course of 3 days and was nothing short of incredible. He was extremely attentive to our puppies needs, and kept our house extremely clean, even making the bed before leaving. He sent updates every 3-4 hours with pictures and videos. If you want someone with expert care, great experience and a great house guest, pick John!
A cancelled fight left me worried about an extra night away. I sent John a message and he replied almost immediately that he could go take care of the kitties. Thankful for his reply and willingness to help and now the kitties are just fine!
Arthur had a great time with John during the week we were gone. I got updates with photos at least twice a day, and John responded quickly if I ever had any questions or comments. Our house was in great shape when we returned, and Arthur was happy. I would highly recommend John to others looking for a pet sitter, and will be looking to use him again in the future.
John is amazing. I almost hate announcing it! We have two high maintenance canines, but they love him. He lifted a huge weight off my shoulders for an upcoming event.
John helped us with very short notice. He made himself available for a meet and greet the day after I reached out. Scout warmed up to him quickly! We will definitely have him visit again.
