Pet care experience

I have many years of experience with taking care of dogs, including my own, friends and roommates, and others. I love to take them for walks, play to get their energy out, and relax to give them quality time.

Was wonderful to my animals and was very patient with my sensitive dog who needed extra time. Was very clean and left my house in good shape at the end of the stay. Would definitely recommend!

John-Paul stopped in three times when I requested (and paid for) four. In the two weeks of drop-in visits for my two cats, He scooped the litter box only once and that was during the first week. He also did not add water to their dishes although I had full bottles of water by the feeding station. He did bring in my packages that were on the porch.

John-Paul is wonderful. He has been very patient winning over my anxious Aussie. He always does even more than asked. I trust my fur babies with him!
