Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet’s Second Favorite Human
I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been the primary caregiver for my pups the past 23 years. From house training and socialization to managing energy levels and building trust, I understand what it takes to give pets a loving and structured environment. More than anything, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m calm, attentive, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable!

John also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. Whether you have a small pup or a big dog, I’m happy to take them on walks—or if you prefer, we can stay in the yard or play indoors. I’ll follow your preferences to make sure your pet feels secure and cared for. If your pet just needs some company and a buddy for a while, I’m here for that too. During my visits, your pet will be treated like part of the family—loved, respected, and given the attention they deserve in a calm, safe environment.
Ratings and reviews
As always
John was fantastic! He kept us updated on what was going on at home and sent us pictures of the pets each day. He made sure the cats and Guiana pig didn’t miss a step in their routine while we were out of town. Fantastic experience! We will use him again.
Great experience! John was reliable, caring, and kept me updated. Highly recommend!
I have had Jack feed and walk my black lab many times and it’s clear that he really cares for him as much as I do! He has also given him medication and stayed with him for a weekend when I was out of town. I highly recommend Jack to anyone!
Jacks helped me out numerous times caring for my dogs, letting them out, taking them for walks and making g sure they’re fed. I travel for conference a lot and he’s always been super flexible, caring and helpful. The dogs love him!

Schedule
I currently work a 9–5 job, so I’m available for evening drop-ins and walks during the week. Open on most weekends! That said, I just had a newborn and will be home all summer, which gives me a flexible daytime schedule for caring for pets and making sure pups get the time and attention they need. I truly love being around animals and enjoy spending my spare time with them—whether it’s a quick walk, a snuggle session, or simply making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away.
