Pet care experience

Experience with large breeds

I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old, and I grew up around larger breeds, such as pitbulls. I also have experience with dogs who are aggressive towards other dogs.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure to keep pets from getting into things that may harm them or make them sick, and I like to give dogs at least 15-20 of walking time to get their energy out.

John is great. He lives near by, so that was convenient. He was prompt and gave my girls plenty of attention and outdoor time. I will use him again.

John (Jack) was fantastic. Tobi and Lea loved him. We will definitely use him in the future. I have used many Rover sitters in Colorado and now here in Pa. John is the best! Thanks!
