Flexible Schedule, Cats and Dogs!

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is John, I live in Anchorage Alaska and I’m looking to help with dog walking petsitting or any other pet needs you might have! I love animals and have a lot of experience taking care of mostly dogs and cats, which started as I grew up in a family with two golden retrievers. Along with the dogs we had I’ve also done a lot of dog walking and pet sitting for other people and friends as well, starting in high school, during college to help pay my way through, then out of college to now present day. I also worked as a job coach at ASPCA for a year helping take care of the rescue dogs and cats there, where I gained a lot of experience working with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes and temperaments, and cats of all personalities and ages as well. I hope to continue working with animals for the forseeable future. If you need assistance with yours please let me know and I’d love to be of service! Thanks!

It was a delight having John watch our dogs. He communicated very well and was great about sending photos. I felt extremely comfortable having him in our home and protecting our most precious assets. My mind was peaceful and at ease on vacation knowing he was with him. We will definitely be reaching out to John in the future!

I worry when I travel. He was easy going and the dogs loved him and I did not worry once. Great communication

I have a lot of experience in taking care of pets in my clients homes, and will always make sure they’re fully paid attention to and taken care of according to their needs.

Information John W. would like to know about your pet

It’d be good to know ahead of time what special needs your pet has so I know what to expect and how to make sure I’m properly caring for them.

A typical day

I’m always up for going for a walk or playing fetch, or whatever activity your dog or pet enjoys and thrives the most with. I can also go for runs with them or hikes or whatever is a preferred activity for them.

I have an extremely flexible work schedule, where I can work whenever is convenient for me during the day. One of the part time jobs I work is cleaning up pet waste, which I’ve done for about 7 years now, and so as long as that route is done at some point I have time to do whatever I need to do for the rest of the day. For this reason I’m available at pretty much any day or time you need as I can work around the other jobs I have.
