Pet care experience

I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up with dogs and cats, I had a black lab named Murph who I adored. Since moving to Austin, I’ve cared for golden retrievers Aslan and Callie, and my friend’s dog George, while their families travel. I’m responsible, reliable, and treat every pet like my own. Taking care of animals brings me so much joy, and I can’t wait to do the same for your furry friend!

John has great communication, and pays attention to detail. He follows instructions very well, and always makes sure our pup has everything he needs!

John came through last minute when I came down with a bad cold, he was so kind to myself and Juno & took her on a nice long walk twice, the same day. I definitely recommend John!

John was amazing! I traveled with my sister to Austin and needed a sitter for Knox while we enjoyed the pol. He was very friendly and punctual. Wish he lived in Nashville so we could book him more. 😊
