Pet care experience

Im retired which allows more time while sitting with dogs. I was an Assistant Manager with Pet Food Express 7 yrs, worked with Petco 4yrs, my female was a pet who happened to a show dog. I’ve whelped a couple litters, followed our Northern California soft coated wheaten terrier club. Im a firm believer of a good diet and have I included raw in my dog's diets.

Toby seems happy with his stay with John, and we enjoyed our vacation knowing that Toby is in good hands. Thankful for his updates while we were on vacation.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Leaving our senior, blind dog in someone else’s care is never easy, but they made us feel completely at ease from the very beginning. They were incredibly patient, attentive, and compassionate, treating our dog with the same love and care we do. One thing we especially appreciated was the constant communication. We received frequent updates along with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was comfortable, happy, and getting plenty of attention. Their kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals really shine through. If you’re looking for someone you can trust—especially if your pet has special needs—I highly recommend them. We will absolutely be booking with them again!
