Bodhi Loves to Host!

After 16 1/2 years together, my best friend and love of my life, Bodhi, departed this world over Labor Day weekend. After four months of mourning, I'm finally ready to pick up the torch. I'm a dog-lover who likes to let dogs be dogs. Although there is no yard, an outdoor, dog-accessible balcony allows for fresh air and sun! For those up to it, Runyon Canyon hikes are a daily ritual. Otherwise, walks around the area and visits to local dog parks are also a part of the day.

Always a pleasure to leave my babies with John. He treats them like his own and sees that they're impeccably cared for. Will definitely book again.

After our meet and greet, I was certain John would take great care of my dog. He was professional, super communicative, and attentive. Most importantly, my dog loved him. He also took her on a hike and sent fun photo updates throughout the week. Thank you John!

John was amazing with my two high energy dogs! He treated them like his own, took them out for daily extended walks and hikes and sent frequent updates. He not only helped us out on short notice when our previous sitter canceled, he made his home their home. I highly recommend John and if you're ever fortunate enough to book him, you will too.
