John the Dog (walker)

Pet care experience

I love dogs and cats (I like them more than people actually). I have had several large dogs in the last 20 years. I am sensitive to the needs of animals in my care and I try to understand their needs and what makes them happy. I mostly work from home so I am around dogs in my care for most of the day. A typical day starts with a walk around 7:30 and another walk in the late afternoon or early evening. I also take dogs in my care out in the evening for a short break and an opportunity to get a breath of fresh air before settling down for the evening. I have a god of my own, Marley, a GoldenDoodle. Marley is like a child to me (except I don't need to send him to college) and I adore him. I usually understand his needs and provide him with a loving home. Guests are always welcome both by me and Marley, who loves dogs of all sizes.

We're so happy to have found John to take care of Noodle for the holiday weekend. He was responsive and flexible, and best of all, he enjoyed Noodle's company as much as we do. It was great peace of mind to know that she well taken care of and got along great with John's dog, Marley. We will definitely have him watch Noodle again.
