Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted Oakland Dog Walker
I have experience caring for service and companion dogs, especially for elderly clients whose pets require consistent routines. I’m experienced giving dogs oral medications and supporting senior pets with patience and care. I take pride in being gentle, dependable, and easy to communicate with.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for dogs in their own homes, I always follow the owner’s routine and instructions closely — from feeding and medications to preferred walking routes. I double-check gates, doors, and leashes before every walk and keep dogs on secure leads at all times. I communicate updates after each visit so you know your dog is safe, comfortable, and cared for.
Ratings and reviews
We’re repeat clients of John’s and continue to work with him because he’s fantastic with our dog and an all-around great human. He cares for our pet as if he was his own, and that has led to developing a level of trust that’s hard to come by. As always, we highly recommend John if you’re considering contacting him.
John was a pleasure to work with!
Zee Best!
John was attentive, responsive, and flexible with a location mixup.
John is great. Our pup took to him right away. He’s always so professional and prompt, and has been consistent with our daily walks, he makes it easy to coordinate and schedule. We’re so glad we found him and would definitely recommend!
John was very friendly, arrived on time and prepared with his own treats and poop bags, and took really good care of my special furry baby! Took some nice pics from the walk too. Would recommend.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my day. I typically walk and care for dogs in the mornings and again in the late afternoon or early evening, between other project work I do from home. This routine allows me to be consistent, flexible, and fully present for each dog I care for.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsJohn can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- Please share any details about your dog’s routine, medical needs, or behavior that will help me care for them safely and comfortably. This includes medications, mobility issues, leash preferences, or triggers such as loud noises or other dogs. The more I know, the better I can keep your dog happy and at ease.
