Pet care experience

Engaged, interactive pet caretaking

I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds since I was 15, with friends, family, and neighbors depending on me to caretake their furry friends when they were out of town. Because I love dogs so much, I also have one myself! Roxie is a black lab that is incredibly fun. Just like I do with Roxie, I will spend time playing with, watering, walking, and feeding your pet(s) when you need some help. Looking forward to meeting your best friend soon and treating them like they’re my own while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment

Any time I enter someone’s home to dog sit or house sit, I treat their space like it is my own home. I will follow whatever instructions are provided and my goal is to leave your space exactly as you left it…minus having an even more happy pup to greet you when you come home!

Second time using John for drop-in visits while I was out of town and my pup and I couldn’t be happier with how he treats my dog like his own. He communicates well, sends plenty of pictures and updates and will use him again in a heart beat!

John did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was out of town. He is super nice and sent plenty of pictures and updates on my pup. I was not worried one bit and trust him to take care of my dog again!

Logan took care of Atlas like as if he was his own, we could not recommend him enough. Seeing how much he cared and love for him gave my wife a lot of peace of mind leaving him with him

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of before I start caring for them. Common examples would include discomfort around strangers or other dogs, aggressive tendencies, or medical needs.
