This was our 2nd time having John and Diane watch our dog. They make leaving her so much easier knowing she is well taken care of. The daily pictures and updates are so great and we never have to worry how she's doing. Thank you for everything!

John is the most amazing pet sitter! While we traveled in Europe, he stayed for 10 days at our home and took excellent care of our dog. Daily communication and pictures provided me with such comfort that I didn't worry at all! His service was above and beyond, taking great care of our home and fur baby. He even went so far as to clean the house and put fresh sheets on the bed...a much appreciated gesture for a weary traveler! I would highly recommend John and Diane!

John and Diane are the absolute best! John provided the highest quality of care to our two dogs while we were away and we got daily updates letting us know how they were doing. John was very attentive to their needs, always communicated quickly, and was a very trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you again!

A typical day

I would first want to hear from you what your dog enjoys doing and what you feel comfortable with. But I’d pay attention to which are your dogs favorite toys and be sure they get plenty of play time around your home. If you’re comfortable with me taking your dog on a local adventure, I know lots of great parks, hikes and ponds for your dog to explore and meet other dogs. If your dog loves car rides, as mine often have, I’m happy to just drive them around a bit to get some fresh air and new sights.

When first meeting you and your dog, I’ll want to learn about their personality, their likes and dislikes. If there are behaviors you are trying to decrease, I will work to not reinforce these behaviors but reward good behaviors. I want to be sure I have all of your emergency contact information including vet, animal hospital, chip company etc. I have taken care of dogs with complicated medical needs and am comfortable giving medications as prescribed.
