Going above and beyond for your dog

Pet care experience

Mindful and attentive former pet care worker and dog walker with multiple years walking, training, and nurturing dogs, cats, and wild animals. My record is impeccable and without incident - this is because I understand the importance of attending to a client's every need, constantly prioritize safety in what is, by nature, a volatile field, and have a deep appreciation for the behavioral needs and individual personalities of the pets I take care of and connect with. I love dogs. I've loved them all my life. And I understand that the second I walk into your home, leash in hand, I am responsible for the well being a loved and dear member of your family - and I treat them as if they were my own.

John was finishing up another job when I contacted him and he still stepped in when I was stranded because of flight issues over the Christmas holiday. He is always amazing with my Nyx and she is so comfortable with him stepping in without any disruption to her world. I really appreciate John so much!

John was absolutely amazing! We had to scramble to find someone last minute for our trip (almost 2 weeks) and he was able to come and stay with our 3 pets. He provided consistent updates and pictures, and you can tell he really cares about animals and their well-being! We were completely at ease and able to enjoy our trip because of him! We will be absolutely reaching out to him again in the near future for all our pet sitting needs! Highly recommend!!

Information John L. would like to know about your pet

With years of experience socializing shelter animals, training "problem dogs", and experiencing the unique personality imbued in each dog, as an individual, I'm comfortable working with any and all animals. If your pet has special needs, tough behavioral patterns, is nervous, shy, or slow to warm up, I can promise you they'll be more than taken care of by patient and practiced hands.

A typical day

Activities include short and long strolls along the water's edge, active play-time, group exercise (jogging, if appropriate for your pet), ear scratches, tummy rubs, and a thorough tour to enjoy the neighborhood landscape of smells.
