Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
John did a great job with my two dogs, including my recent rescue from a tough situation, who is very timid and easily spooked. She quickly warmed up to John, and he was able to walk and play with both of them. John was very responsive and communicative. Will definitely use again!
This is our second time booking with John and we are so pleased with his care for our pup! He is very communicative and we feel confident in leaving our pup in John's care. We highly recommend John!
John is very friendly, and respectful. He communicates well and has been very understanding if we need to make slight adjustments to our walking schedule. Our dog loves going on walks with him! She’s a happy girl when she gets to go on walks with John!
John was really great with our cat Ash! He was prompt with responses, gave us updates, and was really accommodating with little time changes here and there. We requested within a week of the time we had to board him, and John was very accommodating and thorough with intake for our little guy! He’s very genuine and our cat seemed pretty happy when he came home! Thanks John for taking great care of him!
John was great with both of our dogs and chickens! He was also really flexible working around our schedule! We will definitely use him again!
John did a great job boarding our cat! He was very flexible and understanding about last minute plan changes. He sent daily pics and updates on our cat. I was also impressed by how clean/neat he keeps his place! He's nice and strikes me as a responsible guy. Would definitely recommend and we will be rebooking with him!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize safety and cleanliness and am respectful of your home. Have experience with crating, administering medication, and handling emergencies. I am able to accommodate any special request on demand for clients.
A typical day
A typical day would involve a long walk to a nearby park or beach, followed by some playtime and training exercises to keep the dogs stimulated. I also like to provide plenty of love and attention to make sure they feel comfortable and happy.

- Knowing a dog's personality, medical history, and specific needs are important ahead of time. This allows me to tailor my care and make sure their experience is positive and stress-free. I also like to know their favorite activities and toys so I can make sure they have a great time!
