Availability
My primary job is fully remote, so I am flexible and readily available to tend to pets throughout the day. Additionally, I have no pets of my own currently, so my attention will not be split between animals. That said, I would appreciate at least a 1-week cushion for booking, as my family schedule is not conducive to booking on short notice.

Just a guy with a dog-loving family
Pet care experience
I was gifted my first dog (a Border Collie) for Christmas when I was 6 years old. Since then, I've owned a variety of dogs, including - most recently - an English Bulldog, whom we recently lost after 12 years. I love and respect dogs, and I'm excited to help out anyone who needs it. Please note: I have in-home family members who have shown some adverse allergy-related reactions to longer-haired dogs. As such, I may not be able to accommodate certain breeds for extended stays.
Reviews
Marshmello gets SO excited when he gets to go stay at John's house! He's so comfortable and happy there, just part of the family 😊 Highly recommend!
My dog was well loved and cared for with John and his family. It was obvious how much they enjoyed caring for my pup. Will definitely be bringing her back for some love and attention in the future ❤️
Fantastic! Johnny was super kind, flexible, and accommodating. I really appreciated that as my travel schedule got a bit wonky and his flexibility made pet dropoff and pickup stress free! From the daily pictures, I could feel that he and his family loved having my dog Marshmello with them. 5 stars, will definitely book again! 😊
I would recommend John to anyone looking for dependable, in-home dog care. He has a lifelong background with animals and was raised in a household where pets were always part of the family. That experience is reflected in the way he cares for animals, with patience, consistency, and a clear understanding of their needs. John is a former dog owner of an English bulldog, a breed known for requiring specialized and attentive care. He managed that responsibility with dedication and attention to detail, helping his dog live a long, healthy life well beyond the breed’s typical lifespan. John provides a safe, clean, and calm home environment. Animals in his care receive regular attention, structured routines, and thoughtful supervision throughout the day. If you are looking for a trustworthy, responsible sitter who genuinely cares about the well-being of your animal, he is someone you can feel confident leaving your pet with.
