Pet care experience

Pets bring out the best in us.

I haven't been without a dog for over 50 years. German Shepherds, Frenchies, Cocker Spaniels and Dachshunds. For the last 15 years, we've had a pair of Abyssinian cats. I also have 5 chickens who are loved and pampered.

It was great having John check in on our pups. It was a last minute ask and he made is very easy and such a relief to have him let our senior pups out.

John was so patient with our dog and gave her all the exercise she needed when we were out of town. Always a peace of mind when he’s with her! :)

John’s the best! He house sits for my six pets when I travel and walks my dog as well. He’s consistent, punctual, tidy, and respectful. I can always trust my home and pets are in great hands.

I am retired from 9-5 work so most of my time is pet care, anyway. I can walk your dog or we can play fetch or tug of war or work on the basics (sit, lay down, roll over, stay).

Dogs can have unique issues and challenges and I'm happy to learn and adapt to all of these. A list of what makes your dog special helps me when we're together.
