About: Living in the OBX, Willing to travel, see new places! I want to help care for your dog in your home because I believe pets are happiest in their home setting. I never boarded my dog, always traveled with him or had a family member stay. I'm excited to meet all your fur family and see some new places. If you live near trails, i particularly enjoy a hiking dog. I will travel for overnight care up to a few hours. I also visit NH regularly. Im working on something personal right now which allows me the flexibility to travel and dog sit. I prefer the beach, mountains, lakes, quiet over cities. I'm a kiteboarder and hiker, so i'm partial to areas I can explore with these activities. I always follow the household schedule and your pets preferences. During my time in your home, I will leave it generally cleaner than I found it. I'm comfortable traveling to dog parks, trails etc with a dog or two in my car.. I'm happy to keep your plants happy, enjoying a green thumb.

“We seriously lucked out finding John. Our dog, Max, absolutely loves him—and honestly, so do we! John is super friendly, always on time, and you can tell he really cares about the dogs he walks. Max gets a good workout, some solid playtime, and comes home happy (and tired, which is a win for us!). John even sends little updates or photos from their walks, which is such a nice touch. It's clear he treats every dog like his own, and that kind of trust is hard to come by. If you're looking for a great dog walker, John’s your guy.”

10. Kelsey S.
“Kelsey is a wonderful dog sitter. The first time Kelsey came to watch our pups, My boyfriend and I, we were nervous because we didn’t know how it was gonna go. She sent us pictures of everything from them going potty and to them eating their food. She also made sure to keep us updated on them when she was watching them. Our pups love Kelsey. Every time we tell them she is coming to watch them, they get so excited and start wagging their tails and going to the door to greet her. My boyfriend and I would highly recommend Kelsey to watch your fur babies.”
11. Makaleigh W.
“Makaleigh has a long history of being a pet caregiver with a generous heart for animals. At a very young age (3 yrs) she showed a special attachment to her cat, Gracie, who she had for 17 years. She also had 2 ducks, Daily and Chocolate; she was faithful to feed them daily around (ages of 6-12). Later she helped take care of Little Bit our chihuahua and my dog Mitsy when I moved overseas. She became very attached to Mitsy and took very good care of her. Today Makaleigh is in college and has her cat Pluto. She loves Pluto and takes good care of him. She is faithful to feed him, clean his box and provide play time with him. I trusted Makaleigh with my dog once and would do again if I had the need to do so. I highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.”

Unfortunately, our dog has crossed the rainbow bridge.I will not hesitate to reach out to Allison to care for our next dog in the future.”
