Highlights
Pet care experience
Lover of Big Dogs and Tiny Cats
As a kid, I spent my weekends volunteering at the local vet. I learned to love pets of all sizes, from the smallest kitten to the biggest dog. I grew up with two dogs (a Chihuahua-pug and a Labrador-golden retriever), and have always had multiple cats in my households. As a pet care professional, I've worked with energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention, from independent cats to those with social anxiety. When you book me, you can expect updates for every visit (with pictures) and careful attention to your family member — and your pet can expect a visit from a friend who they can trust.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Here's what you can expect: - Respect for your home and belongings, always leaving spaces as I found them. - Adherence to your pet's routine to ensure minimal disruption. - Secure handling techniques to prevent escape or injury. - Immediate communication in case of any concerns or emergencies, ensuring swift action and peace of mind. Your trust is of paramount importance to me. I am dedicated to providing a loving environment where pets feel at ease, and owners can be assured of their pet's safety and happiness. With me, your pet isn't just another client; they're family.
Ratings and reviews
John was a consummate and friendly professional. I’d hire him again and I appreciate his help this weekend!

We’ve come home to a happy dog plenty of times with John. Always communicative- definitely recommend!

John is a great pet sitter! I have an extremely shy cat and a very outgoing one and he managed both perfectly. Will hire again.


John provided great care to our two dogs and cat. He provided frequent photos and updates and responded promptly when we reached out which was greatly appreciated. We will absolutely use his services again in the future.



John D. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
John stepped in at the last minute to help us out for in-home pet sitting when we were in a tricky situation (and at risk for having to cancel a trip!) due to a mildly ill pup. He was communicative, kind, and sent photo and message updates. He followed all our instructions, including a few medications and specific diet. Our house was clean and neat on our return, just as we'd left it. I'd definitely book again and highly recommend John as an in-home house/pet sitter.
