I am a former financial executive who retired early in order to give back to the community. I volunteer for several organizations. My most enjoyable one is working as a math tutor to children and young adults with Downs Syndrome. I love dogs and I have complete flexibility to help and care for your special friend.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very hands on with our pups, and they are almost never out of my sight. I have a very secure property and a great, fully fenced in backyard, where they can run, play fetch or just relax by the pool on one of our comfortable couches or chairs. I never leave our pups outside alone, and will always present for yours as well. I have also made the house dog proof and have all sorts of comfortable places to lay. Your loved one will be closely watched and cared for.

Johnny is the BEST with my particular little pups. We have a young guy and an old lady pup and he is able to exceed needs. They feel most comfortable with him and we can trust him to be prompt and care for our dogs. I would 100% recommend Johnny again and again.

Once again Johnny really went the extra mile to make sure my dog had a comfortable experience while I was away. Would strongly recommend!

Outstanding sitter. Went above and beyond to help my lab stay calm during my absence, Checked on her after visits and notified my neighbor when he thought she needed extra attention ( as requested by me). I am very grateful.

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.
