Pet care experience

All my life, I’ve been surrounded by dogs. Big dogs, little dogs, anxious dogs, calming dogs. Bleu, my English Cocker Spaniel, has taught me what it truly means to be a dog owner. He’s inspired me not only to become the best caregiver I can be for his sake, but also to open my heart and home to other dogs! Dogs are like a safety blanket for me. They enrich my life immensely, and caring for them is the least I can do in return for their affection. I love that they can read my mood and always know how to make me feel better! As soon as I meet your pup, you’ll see how devoted and attentive I’ll be throughout your dog’s stay. I won’t rest easy unless your dog is having a great time and all of her needs are met--even the ones she might not be aware of yet. It’s my job to anticipate what will make our day successful, and create an environment where she’ll thrive. I’m a photographer, and I love posting pictures of my dogs and hamsters on social media. They’re pretty popular, but they don’t let it go to their heads! I’ve also gotten into painting lately. Beyond that, I love to get outside, run and play with dogs, and enjoy the sunshine. I live in Cobblestone, a gated community. We have a huge, grassy park to explore, and I also have a backyard with lots of space for pups to expend energy. The house has plenty of room for getting cozy, snuggling, and playing indoors on rainy days. Having had a Doberman, a Weimaraner, and now Bleu, I’ve got lots of experience with dogs--my own pups, their friends, and my neighbors’ foster dogs who I frequently look after. I feel beyond lucky to have the opportunity to meet more dogs and invite them over to play! This job fits my personality and talents so well that it’s almost absurd that it even exists. So I hope you’ll get in touch--I can’t wait to meet your unique, friendly furball!

Great sitter. Very caring and kept me up to date on my pup. She was very happy and well cared for.

My dog was so happy at the end of that walk honestly I've never seen him any happier. He does really look like he had a good time during those 30 minutes.

You will love the way Johnathan interacts with your paw baby! He's nurturing, loving, dependable, and caring! He dog sat for us for the week we were out of town and he made me feel so calm with his frequent pics and communication about my babies with me! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my boys! I highly recommend you choose Johnathan as your dog caregiver!

Information Jonathan G. would like to know about your pet

We’ll get started with a meet-and-greet. I’ll get right down on your dog’s level, and share treats to get us started on the path to friendship. I love meeting dogs, and she’ll probably sense my excitement! From there, we can go over details of the stay: schedule, food, exercise, medications, special requirements, and the basics of your dog’s personality and history. Throughout the stay, I’ll be fully engaged and communicative, sending regular updates and checking in with any questions I have.

A typical day

The first day or two, the pup will be exploring her new surroundings. She might find a favorite spot or just get to know me better. My goal is to help her know that she can rely on me, so I’ll be extra-attentive to her cues and introduce lots of focused, active play. The more comfortable she feels, the further afield we’ll explore. Anytime I’m boarding a dog, I’m with them 24/7 to ensure their safety and well-being. My dad will also be around to keep an eye on Bleu anytime your dog needs one-on-one time! We’ll go for walks, enjoy running around the park, and I’ll be sure to give the dog a few massages! If you have any special requests, let me know. I want both of you to be totally satisfied!
