Loving Home for Your Beloved Dog

I have a long standing commitment to dog care that spans many years and multiple beloved pets. I take pride in providing consistent, loving and responsible care for my dogs as well as dogs I've taken care of for family and friends over the years. I approach dog care with dedication and respect. My deep bond with dogs is built on trust, routine, and a genuine love of dogs and their well-being.

Doggy Day Care • Apr 14, 2026

John and his wife have been so welcoming with my dog, and it honestly makes such a difference. He’s been there twice now and every time I pick him up he’s happy and completely worn out from playing (which I love 😂). They’re really good about communicating and keeping me updated, which makes me feel a lot better leaving him there. You can just tell they actually care and treat the dogs like their own!! I feel super comfortable bringing him back and definitely recommend them if you’re looking for someone you can trust with your dog!

I would recommend John anytime. Stella was glad to see us but she seemed to be very comfortable when we picked her up. Stella is a Lab with lots of energy Thank You John and family

John and Donna took great care of Maxie. They sent us several pictures and texts. We will definitely use them next time the need arises. Wonderful couple.

John loves dogs. He’s had many dogs over the years and is very consistent when feeding and walking the dogs. He would make a good pet sitter because he is a very good caretaker. He also has a fenced in yard that is good for when the dog wants to run around.

I only leave my dog with John. Pebbles does not want to leave John’s side when I go to pick her up. He plays ball continuously with her. and gives her so much attention. I trust John with my dog. It will be a great choice for you.

I have known John for over 40 years. He is a great family man that has always included one or more dogs. He is very caring and takes great care of his pets. When I travel John always takes care of my dogs. I have a Golden Retriever and a French Bulldog. The best review I can give John is how excited the dogs are when we go to his house!
