John was great to work with. He met up with us for walks a few times ahead of our trip to get Malla comfy with him, and had her wrapped around his finger by the time we left. He kept her exercised and was very attentive to her diet and medications. He communicated regularly with photos and also took care of the house. We intend/hope to use John again in the future.

John went above and beyond to make sure Archie and my apartment were well taken care of! His communication is top notch. I gave tons of instructions (Arch loves his routine) and John followed everything to a T. My plants have bloomed and my dog has not only a new pet sitter, but a new friend. When I asked for Archie’s review- he summed it up simply, “John for Rover President”.

He accepted my last minute booking and was wonderful with my pets. Especially my female frenchie that had been spayed the previous day. 10/10 recommend

John has lifelong experience with and love for animals! As a pet owner himself of both dogs and cats, he is able to provide excellent care you can trust while you’re away. John is very responsible and will ensure your pets’ needs are met and exceeded. Plus pets love him! 🥰

Schedule

I live in Nashville where there are many dogs and cats, and since I have a normal schedule with afternoons, I want to sit pets.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
John can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
If your pet has special medical needs, a history of hostile or erratic behavior, or is extremely scared of strangers please let me know! I am not frightened of large dogs; I’m particularly easy on luring out scared cats.
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.
