Pet care experience

Experienced dog dad who can lend a helping hand.

Dogs (and cats) have been in my family since I was born. They have been a constant in my life and my love for my pets has only grown over the years. I have had two Daschunds of my own for over 5 years and I am fully aware of the needs and care duties of even the most high maintenance of household companions. I understand how important it is that people feel secure that their pets are safe, I feel the same way about mine and I will treat yours animals with the same care and dedication. I am at a stage in my life that my availability make me the perfect person to offer a helping hand where it’s needed.

John was great! He took amazing care of my fur babies. He kept me updated on how they were and how much the dogs loved snuggling up with him. He sent me loads of videos and pictures while I was away. I will definitely be booking with him in future. I know my babies are in safe hands with him.

Doggy Day Care • Oct 24, 2025

Really excellent sitter - communicative and caring. Marvin was feeling a little unwell but John was really understanding and kept an extra eye on him. Marvin had an ace time with him and his two daschunds. He came home tired out and content which is such a good sign that he's been looked after.

John was punctual & reliable - was on time for each walk & Loki was happy to go on walks with him. He message to confirm before each walk which was really appreciated. Would recommend.

First time using John as a pet sitter for my wee yorkie Oscar, John is such a lovely person and Oscar loved him, his partner and his 2 dogs. Can honestly recommend John if you are looking for a dog sitter. I will certainly be using him again. John kept me up to date with how Oscar was doing sending me picture's and videos. Thank you so much John.
