Availability

I work from home full-time, so I'm truly available 24/7—no office, no commuting, and no distractions. My schedule is built around the dogs in my care, ensuring constant supervision and a consistent, loving routine. A typical day includes: Morning potty breaks, breakfast, and playtime or walks Midday outdoor breaks, enrichment, and lunch Afternoon exercise, mental stimulation, dinner, and relaxed cuddles Overnight: Dogs sleep comfortably (in crates or beds, per their preference), and I'm always here for midnight potty breaks or extra reassurance. Because I'm home all day and night, your pet gets: Non-stop attention and immediate response to any needs A schedule that matches their usual routine (feeding, meds, walks) Plenty of play, affection, and tailored care—whether for playful puppies or gentle seniors Your dog isn't just watched—they become part of my daily life, with the full focus and care they deserve!

Safety, trust & environment

Caring for pets is all about love, consistency, and keeping them feeling safe and happy—whether they're my own or the ones I look after in clients' homes. Here's my simple approach: Feeding: Fresh food and water every day at their usual times, following the owner's exact instructions for portions, special diets, or treats. Exercise & play: Daily walks, playtime, or gentle fun tailored to their age and energy—keeping them active and joyful. Affection & companionship: Plenty of cuddles, kind words, and calm time together so they always feel loved and secure. Health checks: Watching for any changes in appetite, energy, or bathroom habits, and letting owners know right away (or visiting the vet for my own pets). Safety: Keeping doors secure, hazards out of reach, and the environment peaceful. For overnight or longer stays, I keep their normal routine, give any needed medications, send happy photo updates, and leave everything tidy. Every pet is special, so I always learn their unique personality and preferences first. My only goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and content while you're away. 🐾❤️

Information Johnathan L. would like to know about your pet

To give your pet the best possible care (and keep everyone safe and happy), I always ask owners for some key details ahead of time. This helps me follow their exact routine and handle anything that comes up. Here are the most important things I like to know: Daily routine — Feeding times, portion sizes, exact food brand/type, any treats or restrictions (like allergies or special diets). Personality & preferences — Favorite toys/games, what makes them excited or calm, any fears (thunder, strangers, vacuum), and how they get along with people/other pets.

A typical day

I love making playtime fun and tailored to each pet's personality—lots of joy, exercise, and bonding! Here are some of my favorite activities I do with the pets I watch: Fetch games: Throwing balls or favorite toys in the yard or park—perfect for energetic pups who love to run and bring it back for more praise.

Pet care experience

With 15 years of professional pet boarding experience, I've cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities—building deep trust with pets and their owners along the way. What truly sets me apart is my hands-on expertise in breeding and raising puppies: I've successfully produced and raised several healthy litters from birth through their first months. This gives me specialized skills in: Puppy training & socialization – Housebreaking, crate training, basic commands, and gentle exposure to new experiences. Newborn and young puppy care – Bottle feeding (if needed), weaning, health monitoring, and creating a safe, enriching environment for proper development. Senior dog care – Patience with mobility issues, medication administration, and comfortable routines for older pups who need extra TLC. I treat every dog like family, providing calm, attentive care tailored to their individual needs—whether it's an energetic puppy learning the ropes or a wise senior enjoying quiet cuddles. Your pet will come home happy, healthy, and well-loved!

Johnathan is a very kind and loving dog sitter. He expresses the same kind of compassion and love to other dogs as he does his own.

Johnathan took excellent care of my 10 year old dog, Draper. He provided daily updates and sent plenty of pictures during her stay. He has a fenced yard which allows for a safe space for pups to play, get exercise, and potty. My dog doesn’t require walks but he was available to walk her as needed. Highly recommend!
