Retired Police Officer/K9 Handler

Pet care experience

I have been an owner of German Shepherds for the last 20 years having four of them at one time. I am always called upon to look after my neighbors pets since I am honest and trustworthy. I am also very caring and compassionate about all animals and not just dogs. During the time I was a K9 handler I learned a lot about obedience training, dog behavior, first aid and providing a healthy diet to dogs. It is VERY important for dogs especially larger ones to get at least a 30 minuet walk every day! I think it’s very therapeutic to walk and care for a dog. I will not be available until February. Dogs aren’t my whole life but they make my life whole.

John was a great match for our boxer. She’s not comfortable around other dogs, and John understood her and gave her the mix of praise and discipline that she needs on her walks. Trustworthy & dependable — we’ll be calling John again when we need help with our girl!

John was great with our GSD! Buster liked him instantly! He gave us some advice on feeding, walking, ect . and it’s all working now. He spent time walking, playing with him & hanging out. We received pictures and videos it was awesome. John communicated with us about the visits as well so we knew when he came and went. It’s nice to have someone we can trust to give him the love and attention like he gets from us ! We will definitely call on John again in the future.
