With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve learned what makes animals feel at ease, how to read their moods, and what brings out their happiest moments. That includes playtime, belly rubs, energizing walks, comfy nap sessions, and everything in between. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering vitamins and meds if needed, and adjusting to your pet’s unique schedule. I am available 7 nights a week for house sitting, and any day of the week pending my day job, so please provide me with 48 hours notice if possible and I will respond with a yes or no as soon as possible! My calendar will be kept up to date for your convenience, as well. 🐾 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

Every stay, walk, or visit includes: ✨ Personalized play and engagement (inside or outside) ✨ Calm, patient attention when pets want snuggles or alone time ✨ Consistent communication — I’m happy to send photos or updates! ✨ A safe, clean, loving environment that feels just like home ✨ Full respect for your routine — tell me what matters most and we’ll make it perfect!  I’m all about balance: energetic play when they’re up for it, gentle quiet time when they’re not. Most importantly, I always put safety first — whether it’s a leash walk, indoor adventure, or cozy afternoon nap 🛋️.

Information John-Paul M. would like to know about your pet

If you need anything, I’m open to all requests. Please let me know ahead of time so that I can be fully prepared to take care of your babies properly and thoroughly! I’m easygoing, attentive, and flexible — just let me know what your pet loves (or doesn’t). I treat every animal like family, and I’m always excited to build trust and joy, not just check off tasks. 🥰

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m John-Paul (JP) — a lifelong animal lover, devoted pet caregiver, and all-around fur-baby fan 🐶🐱✨. Caring for cats and dogs isn’t just something I do — it’s something that genuinely makes my heart glow. From the moment I can remember I’ve always had a furry companion by my side, and now I’m here to bring that same love, energy, and joy to your beloved pets!  Whether it’s your curious kitten exploring nooks and crannies or your loyal senior dog who just wants comfy cuddles and gentle walks, I tailor every care plan to your pet’s personality and needs. I’ve grown up with pets of all sizes and temperaments — from playful puppies to wise senior kitties — and I’m confident in making each one feel safe, comfortable, and excited to be in my care. Have had a dog since I was born, now have 2 cats and a dog (and some fish!). I have experience with senior, middle-aged, and puppy/kitten care experience. Feeding, play, engagement, vitamins, bathing, walking, and open to any other requests on a case-by-case basis! 🐕❤️🐈
