Information John L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for, such as dietary restrictions, medical conditions, or anxiety triggers. My preference is for breeds that are friendly and social, but I'm happy to care for dogs of all breeds and mixes. If your dog requires medication, has specific exercise needs, or has separation anxiety, please share that with me so I can provide the best possible care. The more information you can provide about your dog's personality, habits, and needs, the better I'll be able to tailor my care to ensure they feel comfortable and happy in my presence.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We'll play a bunch of games, check out all the new smells in my neighborhood, and explore parks near my house. Depending on your dog's interests and energy level, we might play fetch, hide-and-seek, or agility games. I'll also provide plenty of belly rubs, treats, and snuggles to make their stay with me a joyful experience. I'll ensure they're comfortable and happy, and we'll have lots of fun together.

Pet care experience

I am patient with pets. In the past I have taken care of multiple dogs, varied breeds, temperaments from 10 to 120 lbs. This includes personal and relatives/neighbors' dogs. Prefer smaller hypoallergenic dogs. Could decline others if and when I feel its not a good mutual fit. Thanks

John is fantastic with our old, grumpy dog. She is very spoiled when she is with him. Highly recommend.

Wow! 🤩 The care provided by John and his lovely wife was second to none! Our pup was loved, pampered, happy and content as I have only seen him at home! We had zero worries about Noah as we saw how much he was cared for immediately! We will be back soon for sure! Thanks John!

John was wonderful with our dog and provided great communications and pictures while we were away. She felt right at home and we were happy that she was in such good care. We would book again!
