Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable & Attentive Dog Care
I have 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m attentive, reliable, and focused on making each dog feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, or calm companionship, I adjust to your dog’s needs. I’m also comfortable with feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and providing updates with photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. My middle name is Cotter and what I normally go by. Sorry for any confusion!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any specific needs so they feel secure and at ease. Whether in your home or out on a walk, I’m attentive, responsible, and treat every pet like my own.
Ratings and reviews
He was great. Showed up as expected. We got reports daily. Thanks!
John was amazing with my dog Chama. He is a trusted friend who has stayed at my house on multiple occasions. He is a great communicator, passionate about not only pets but his family and friends. I recommend John for pet sitting 100%. Thanks John.
John (Cotter) is an exceptional individual, and brings his whole heart to dog sitting and dog care. He is extremely conscientious and thoughtful, with his human relationships, and know the same extends to the way he thinks of our furry friends. He is calm, mild mannered, yet definitely has a passion for playful banter and much personality to keep, human and canine, engaged and attentive, alike. He's defintely known to enjoy dog love and kisses and know he reciprocates the sme. John (Cotter) is a great resource and caretaker to trust your loved one with and sure to manage owner expectations with updates and regular communication, and dog needs as well. 5 star service!!!
Cotter is a dog whisperer. My two pups love it when he drops in. He is super responsible and cares greatly for my pets well being.
Our pup loves Cotter more than us! He is amazing with our big puppy and our senior pup. We trust him to give them the love and attention that we give them. They get so excited to see him and are always ready for a nap when he leaves. He is our go-to guy for all things dog walking, check-ins, and caring for our pups.
