Active Dog Lover Through & Through!

Pet care experience

I've owned dogs all of my life (and I'm the proud dogfather of many more)! I have lived with everything from Shih Tzus to Cane Corso Mastiffs. I've lived with puppies that want to run and play as well as old pups who'd rather lay down and relax. I have loved every dog I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I don't currently have a pup of my own but I've been raising my cat, Jasper, as one. He doesn't really have barking down but is great at fetch. My goal is to provide your pup with whatever they need, whether that be going for a run, a hike, playing fetch, a good brushing, or just someone to be around. I have no issues with dogs which may have medical needs, I have lived with and cared for dogs who needed daily medication in the past. Overall, I am looking for excuses to hang out with pups young and old, big and small!

Jon took great care of our puppy over the weekend and he did a great job! He sent regular updates with photos and kept us up to date on all the activities. Highly recommend!

I've known Jon and his family for a long time. Jon is a very intelligent and responsible person and pet lover. I have 3 dogs, who are very important members of our family. Jon has done an excellent job dogsitting (all 3 dogs at once) for me in the past. He was responsive and very attentive to my dogs. My dogs love him. I don't trust a lot of venues for my dogs, and I don't know a lot about rover.com, but I trust it more if they have people like Jon working for them. I doubt that it is local, but I plan to look it up.

I would highly recommend Jon as caregiver for your dog. He is great with all kinds of animals and has a true love for them. He is very responsible and responsive and has come in very handy when I need a last minute hand getting my pup out for a walk.

Jon has taken care of each of my dogs in some capacity over the last 10 years. He is kind and caring. He also has great command over dogs big and small. Jon has handled my Yorkie, 3 Beagles, Chocolate Lab/Pit mix, and my 115 lb Chocolate Lab. He has handled all the dogs with extreme care. Sadly, three of these dogs are no longer with us. Jon cared for the dogs even when they were sick/old and getting towards the end. He is great with energetic dogs, older dogs, sick dogs, honesty he is great with any dog. One of the beagles even came down with cancer and after multiple treatments had to have one leg amputated. Jon was even wonderful with a cancer stricken, 3 legged, diva of a Beagle named Kaylee. It is with 100% certainty that I can tell you that your dog(s) will be in in good hands with Jon.
