About John D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to feel that your pet is receiving safe, attentive care. You can trust that I will follow your care instructions to a T, and you will receive photo updates and responsive communication from me. Your pet(s) will be treated with respect and love. I will also be respectful of your home, whether house sitting or doing a drop-in visit.
Information John D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs (e.g., dietary or medication requirements), quirks, or any other relevant information. What is your pet’s energy level? Does your dog do well on leash? Do they require a harness? How does your dog behave around other animals and people?
A typical day
For cat drop-ins you can expect wet and/or dry food feeding, topping up the water bowl, litter box check, and lots of pets and playtime. I can also administer medication and clean up after your cat(s) as needed! For dog care, your pup can expect a fun walk with lots of time to stop and sniff! I will keep your dog safely leash restrained and walk them according to your direction. I also recognize the importance of playtime and other forms of mental stimulation.

Pet care experience
I have provided loving care for cats and dogs for more than two decades. I grew up with multiple cats and a large dog in the house (as well as various fish, hamsters, and a guinea pig). For years I enjoyed daily walks with our German Shepherd mix. Today I'm a proud cat dad to two rescue kitties that mean the world to me. If you'd like to know more about me and my experience, just ask!

Reviews

Jack was fantastic! My dog is very anxious and doesn’t do well being left alone, but he made me feel super comfortable and kept me updated with pictures and messages letting me know how Remy was doing. Jack also asked great questions about Remy’s care which also made me feel very reassured. I would definitely book with Jack again, Remy was also a big fan!


Jack took phenomenal care of our two cats (and home) while we were away. I’m usually very anxious/sad traveling away from my fur babies but under Jack’s care I always feel such a sense of calm and relief knowing they’re being so well taken care of. Jack is truly such a gem, so hard to find a sitter like him who is so thoughtful, detailed, trustworthy, and loving to our pets. I’d recommend him a million times over.

John is the best !! He is very communicative before and during his visits assuring that everything goes smoothly. I never worry about my 🐈⬛ while he’s in John’s care. 😇😇😇


Jack is a great communicator and took great care of my fur babies!
