I think it will fit very well especially for any people who need pet care that work overnight, work late, tending to their children’s post school activities, etc. I have a very flexible schedule that makes me available for potential clients.

Safety, trust & environment

Every home will be on a case by case basis. I’m flexible with any condition of the clients home. Unfortunately due to my current living conditions I am unable to welcome pets in my home for the time being.

Information John M. would like to know about your pet

I’ll need to know if there’s any issues to be aware of. If the dog greets people by being jumpy, their temperament toward other dogs, or any special needs and extra care

A typical day

I adjust my activities depending on the personality of the dog. If they’re more energetic and need daily exercise I would go on walks and runs, toss a ball of frisbee around, anything to make sure they can get a good workout in. If they’re a low energy dog just a quick walk and make sure they receive adequate attention and some playing.

Reliable & dedicated pet caretaker

Pet care experience

I would be a fantastic pick because I have been both an owner and caregiver. I’ve owned 3 dogs, I’ve cared for over a dozen dogs from friends and other family members, and I’ve had further experience volunteering at a rescue since 2023.

John was very friendly and helpful! I was very glad he was able to check in on my animals even with short notice!

We had a great experience with John. We did a first meet-and-greet at our home so our cat could get to know him, and that made a big difference. During the weekend he stayed at our place, our cat felt comfortable and well cared for. John was very responsive with messages and adapted perfectly to our cat’s routine: she likes to go outside for a couple of minutes to feel the cold and get some fresh air, then come back in for treats. Overall, it was a great decision and we would definitely book with him again.

John has house sat for our 9 year old lab mix 3 times now. We have been very happy with the care that he has given Abu.

This is the second time that John has stayed with our dog Abu. John is very prompt and keeps me informed about how Abu is doing while I am gone.
