John watched and took care of our two Boys while we got away on vacation. He is such a caring individual it gave use great peace of mind knowing that he was there taking care of them in our absence. He communicated with us every day and sent pictures of the activities that he was doing with the dogs. We feel so fortunate to have found John and made a connection with him. Our Boys, Riley and Koda really liked John as well, he has a wonderful rapport with them. We will definitely call on John again when we go on our next trip.

Johnathan saved our vacation! He’s very prompt and great with our pups. We have an older blind dog and a very energetic puppy who took to him right away. Johnathan sends updates and keeps us informed while we are away. Johnathan is a great communicator as well! Very easy going and friendly.

Jonathan was absolutely amazing. He took wonderful care of both of our dogs, and it was clear from the start how much he truly loves animals. The house was impeccable when we returned, and our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. In fact, they now run to the front gate every day, waiting for him to come back! We will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend!

John was great with our dogs! One is old and clingy while the other is young and standoff-ish, so he had his work cut out for him. He was attentive to their needs and left the house in great shape.
