I have four adopted wildcats. They're always happy to see me for coffee and breakfast. We're all old pals now, and they bring lots of joy into my life.

About John D.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm very comfortable caring for your animals to your personal specifications. I know animals are creatures of habit. I will focus on building good habits and routines with your animals.
Information John D. would like to know about your pet
I've met all kinds of animals. If you think you have an animal whose behavior falls outside of the normal range, that's ok. I'm confident in my ability to care for many different types of animals and I'm always interested in adding new animal care skills for any type of animal.
A typical day
There is always the need to build trust with a dog before one on one playtime. The first visit will include zero playtime until I earn trust, which can be signaled in many ways by the dog. Not all dogs just go ahead and approach strangers with tail wagging ready for a good time. If playtime is not preceded by trust, the natural progression of my relationship with your dog will be out of order. Once I gain your dog's trust, we will play. I like tug of war with a rope the best, but it's not about what I like. It's about what the dog and I both enjoy. When both human and animal truly enjoy playing together, the relationship thrives.

hello Yuma.
Pet care experience
My skill is rooted in my ability to make friends with animals that don't make friends easily. I've never been a good wrangler, and I'm not an accomplished trainer. I'm good at body language, and I think this is why animals often like me. A sensitive dog taught me, naturally.
Reviews
John was thoughtful, thorough, and communicative during his time with our fur babies! Absolutely amazing. Will rebook!
John was amazing! HE took my dog on numerous long walks and kept me updated the whole time. It looks like she really enjoyed him too. Thanks John!
John dropped in on our Bengal cat Murphy daily during our vacation in the Caribbean. We met face to face beforehand, and John was a nice, normal guy. Super responsive to text. The app notified us every time John started the drop-in visit and when it ended. John always fed, changed water, cleaned the litter, played with and pet Murphy. He sent me three or four pictures each day, and commented on how Murphy was doing. When we came home, everything was perfect, Murphy was happy, and John came by to return the key at my convenience. Five stars, you couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend.
John was very helpful when I had a change of plans last minute and needed someone to walk and check in on my dog. I would highly recommend him and will be using his services in the future for sure.
