Friendly + energetic dog caretaker

Pet care experience

I’ve been trusted not only with my own pets, but also the pets of my friends, family, and neighbors! I’ve cared for dogs and looked after them over the past 8 years beginning back in college. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments allowing me to provide a personalized experience for each pup that enters my life. I emphasize safety and communication so please tell me as much about your loving companion as possible beforehand so I can create the best experience for both you and your dog. Currently, my dog is with my parents on the east coast.

John’s good vibes and outdoor spirit made him an excellent Rover for my golden retriever mix. He greeted her with so much love and smiles - her tail couldn’t stop wagging. Over the course of her stay, John was great in both communication and in keeping my girl active and hydrated. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a caring and thoughtful dog sitter.

John was great with Ace - Our dog warmed up to him immediately! John was timely, and did a great job in caring for our dog, and even helped with basic training. John went above and beyond and I would use him again

John has helped to walk my shih tzu on several occasions and has always been careful to keep her safe on the street and accommodate her slow pace. He is very attentive to details and I would recommend him as a walker!

Information John L. would like to know about your pet

Definitely would like to know the dogs temperament and how they play with people and other dogs. I have several walks, and some tend to have more foot traffic than others so I can adjust accordingly. I would also like to know if you are hoping for your companion to exercise, relax, or just play. If your dog has any idiosyncrasies that I should know of, please do share as well. I am committed to exceeding your expectations and producing your dog with a great time!

A typical day

I’m a very active individual and love going on long walks, runs, and hikes! More than happy to go on a longer adventure if your dog is comfortable with car rides. There are a bunch of parks where we can play catch, fetch, or just play. Whether your dog needs exercise or relaxation, I can deliver!
