Information Jon S. would like to know about your pet

Would prefer to not have dog pulling, but can handle and even coach if needed. Chewing or jumping issues would just like a heads up.

A typical day

We go on walks to different trails. We also have a few dogs parks around that we go to from time to time. We can play fetch all day. We have a million tennis balls.

Pet care experience

My name is Jon, I'm a veteran, I have two adventurous little girls that adore their boy Goose. We live in a quiet residential area with dogs surrounding us everywhere. I work from home in the morning and then for a couple hours in Eagan. I am home with the girls and Goose on most nights and enjoy taking him on different adventures. Maintain a fun environment for dog looking to socialize with bigger dogs. Plenty of room to run and chew and catch. Warm home with plenty of ice cold H2O to quench a hard day of play. Have many years of experience walking dogs on hard trails. Also know how to navigate through congested areas.

Jon and his family were so good to our cat and dog. We felt at ease while being away. Thank you and merry Christmas!

Jon took good care of Bella. Seems like he treated her just like we do! She slept in bed and seemed to enjoy herself.

Jon took great care of my two high maintenance pups for a whole week. They came back happy and healthy and Jon was easy to communicate with. Jon’s dog Goose was super friendly and our dog loved playing with her!

Jon took Lucy over Christmas when my other arrangement fell through. I appreciated that.
