Pet care experience

I have been watching dogs for the last 3 years of all ages and sizes. I have also had dogs for most of my life I don't work weekends, so I usually don't spend too much time away from home then. I have a large fenced in backyard and my son and I like to take the dogs we watch for long walks as well. My son also enjoys playing with all the dogs we watch in the backyard.

John was available for a relatively short notice stay. Wrigley seemed to enjoy himself and got numerous long walks. I appreciated receiving a video of our dog playing in the yard as well.

I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with John. He communicated well before and during the stay and sent pics of my dog. Would book again!

John took excellent care of Aja. He made him comfortable relating to the other bigger dogs, which is a feat on its own. He washed him and biggest of all, he kept him for the extra day when I could not make it back in time.
