Pet care experience

It's not work if a dogs around.

Hello, I'm Jon! One of the first jobs I ever had was working at Little River Pet Resort in Columbia Station, Ohio. I fed, medicated, bathed, and played with hundreds of dogs during my years there. Toward the end of my time there, I was left in charge of up to 40+ dogs at a time. When I moved to Columbus in 2011 I found work with a local company called Mimis Pet Care where I walked and pet sit all around the city. It has been a few years since I've worked with pups and I miss it.

Jon loves caring for dogs and has proven himself to be a valuable member of my pups close circle. Jon arrives on time, communicates well and genuinely cares for the dogs. He can be trusted to enter your home and with your four legged family member with integrity and most importantly, with love. Jon is my favorite dog walker my pup ever had.

Jon is absolutely wonderful! My dog Sage loves spending time with him. We've been with Jon for about 3 years now and we will continue with his services. Sage is always happy after walks, house-sitting and dog sitting with Jon. Sage has been with Jon after TPLO surgery as well and takes daily medications and we haven't had any issues. Our place is always spotless when Jon spends a few days with Sage. Jon is also a fast communicator which is an absolute plus for me. Highly recommend Jon! :)

Jon has been walking my dog for over a year now and I can’t recommend him highly enough! He has been so good with my dog and sends the best photos! I know she adores him and always gets a lot of her energy out. She had surgery in January and Jon went above and beyond by being willing to check on her and let her out to use the bathroom in lieu of their usual walk. Thanks for all of the care you show Idgie, Jon!

Please let me know any important information regarding your dog's personality quirks or special needs they might require. I've dealt with all types of pups but it's always good to know why I'm getting into ahead of time!
