I've lived with dogs all my life

Pet care experience

Over the course of my life, I have been surrounded by dogs in my home, neighborhood, and other family members homes. From terriers to large golden retrievers, I have seen it all. My experience with dogs has made me appreciate how to care for them the right way and give them the nurture they need to love this world. I feel like I have a special connection with dogs, not only because I have been surrounded by them my entire life, but because I am very patient. Not every dog is going to love everyone, but the key is taking time to adjust with them. I trained my dogs when I was a child and worked with my uncle to train his dogs too, and I think this is another instance that gave me a greater appreciation for dogs. I am pretty flexible with hours but I am most available after 3:45.

John is one of the most caring and responsible friends I have been blessed to have for over 10 years. He cared for my German Shepherd, Eli, while I was away on vacation in Mexico. I got almost daily updates and pictures of John walking Eli and even taking him to a dog park. As a friend and dog watcher John always exceeds expectations. I have seen him with his own two golden retrievers, Brady and Daisy, and his energy and knack for dealing with animals is exceptional. Your furry friend will love spending time with John and I could not recommend him as a person and dog caretaker any higher.

John is an extremely caring and personable man. Myself and many friends have dogs that require someone to watch them when our families go away on vacation and he is always the first person that our families call. Not only does he walk the dogs and feed them to the desire of the owners, but he spends time with the dogs as well. While most dogs get sad when they tell that their owners are leaving, my dog honestly seems happy because she knows that John is going to be taking care of her. John is always available via phone, and is very prompt and professional with anything he does.
