John took great care of our dog while she was boarding with him over the Thanksgiving holiday. She came home in good spirits 😊

John was great with Jade! He was able to provide her with love and affection that she is accustomed to receiving at home. John was very responsive and provided details of Jade’s stay. We will definitely rebook with John again.

Information John K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog requires any special attention and care; I will do my best to accommodate if possible, and will not approve any requests in which I do not feel comfortable with.

A typical day

I like to take them on my favorite local hiking trails, or dog parks. Depending the size/breed of the dog, they may also get to come to work with me for all the additional human attention they could want.
