John was great! My dog had the best time. John was able to take my dig lady minute and entertain him all day! Clean home and professional!

John was amazing with our two dogs, both staying with someone new for the first time. He was so thoughtful and accommodating- spending good time with both Ryder and Remi and making them feel right at home. They got lots of exercise, snuggles and attention- just what they needed. He was very communicative and always kept me updated with pictures and how they were doing each day. I would highly recommend John and plan to use him again next summer when we’re at the beach!

Great experience from start to finish. You can tell John genuinely loves animals and it’s so nice when you can leave your pets somewhere they feel at home. Will definitely be rebooking with John again.

John is an excellent caregiver! My little Apollo had so much fun and I am so grateful to have finally found a caregiver that understands dogs so well. I look forward to having John care for Apollo again soon. Thank you John!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I have cared for and loved four of my own dogs and two cats over the course of my life. I have a lifelong love of animals, reading body language and using gentleness to interact and gain the trust of most cats and dogs I meet. Your pet would be an honored guest in my home and I will make sure to treat them the same way I would want my own animals to be treated.

Information John H. would like to know about your pet

What the dogs personality is like, how much exercise the dog needs and if they get along with other animals. If there is any special information I need to know about your pet before providing care for them.

A typical day

I live two blocks from the beach so I like taking dogs I care for the the beach. I also like going on long hikes and walks so if the dog requires exercise I can certainly take them on nature walks and walks close to the beach.

I am currently a junior at Boston College spending my summer at the Jersey Shore. I have cared for pets all my life and have experience caring for other people's pets for years. At the shore I live two blocks from the beach which is a great outlet for energetic dogs. I enjoy caring for other peoples animals and would be able to give them attention and provide proper care as Rover takes up a majority of my schedule in the summer. My schedule allows for the perfect amount of exercise and care for your animal.
