John was absolutely wonderful with my dog! He was caring, attentive, and treated him like he was his own. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. John kept me updated and made sure she was happy and well taken care of throughout her stay. I truly appreciate the love and care he gave him and would definitely recommend John to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with him again! 🐾❤️

I had a wonderful experience with John! He was friendly, communicative, and very flexible with schedule. He kept me updated with regular messages and sent pictures of Buster, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Buster was well cared and happy. I will definitely use him again in future!

As I’ve been a special needs pet parent, I’m more than happy to assist with administering any medications or attending to all the needs of your animal. Please note that I offer pick up and drop off of your dogs. If you’re more than 15 miles away from me (30 miles round trip), then I will charge an additional $1 per mile for round trip pickups.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
