Pet care experience

Top-Rated, Caring Dog Whisperer!

Hello! My name is John and I am a professional dog walker and sitter in Atlanta, GA. I jump at the chance to meet new dogs and cats! I am considerate, thoughtful, caring, reliable, and honest. I am an experienced Rover sitter and have had success using the platform over the past decade to offer pet care services to both new and repeat clients. Prior to using Rover, I had experience working with shelter dogs while in college as an undergraduate research assistant. Pet care has become my full-time job! Over the past few years, I have steadily built my own business using Rover to work with animals of all kinds. I am happy to discuss and attend to your pet's individual care needs to ensure that they receive the best care when I'm with them. I look forward to taking care of your pups and cats soon!

John was great with our two dogs. He was very responsive, gave frequent updates, and took great care of our house and our dogs. We'll definitely be using him again!

Repeat customer. John always does a great job with the dogs, and the house always is clean when we come home. Amazing job!

John was a terrific house/dog sitter! Mambo is almost 12 and very set in his ways as well as having anxiety issues. John patiently administered Mambo’s meds and was able to keep to a regular schedule. Regular updates and photos gave us reassurance that all was well.

John is always my first choice when I need a dog sitter. He is reliable, professional, caring, and communicates well throughout the stay. I trust him completely with my two pugs and highly recommend him to anyone looking for excellent pet care.

Schedule

I have open availability and accept new clients all the time! I tend to fully book my days with walks and house-sittings. Please note that I tend to get booked up quickly - for longer stays and holiday bookings, the more notice you can give me, the easier it will be for me to accommodate you and your pets!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
John can host up to 20 drop-ins per day
If your dog has any special needs (dietary, physical health, etc.), activity restrictions, rules that you would like me to follow, or anything else that would be beneficial to know, I'd be glad to accommodate. I have no breed preferences, but please let me know if your pet is aggressive towards strangers or other animals.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
