About John

Experience: 10 yrs

My neighbors know me as the helpful guy who grabs their paper, helps shovel in the winter, and watches their pets when they are out of town, and kids when they need to grab milk at the store. I'm a stay at home Dad. I live in South Elmhurst and am available for odd jobs and for taking care of pets up to 10 miles away. I grew up on a dairy farm in upstate New York and took car of calves and cows there and also in Texas until I was in my mid-twenties. While working at the farm I also took care of stray dogs and cats. I enjoy animals and am very skilled at reading their personality. I also have handyman skills from working with heavy farm machinery and constantly fixing things on the farm and over the years wherever I have lived. I am also good a researching how to fix a problem and like learning new skills.
