I currently fit it around my main job (I teach History at a London uni). I have plenty of experience working with older dogs, bigger dogs, and dogs that have behavioural and medical issues. I'm fully insured with accidental injury and public liability cover. Happy to arrange a free meet 'n' greet to chat more!
Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
I am confident dealing with older dogs, bigger dogs, and dogs with behavioural issues. I'm also confident dealing with rescue or rehomed dogs that require close lead control or muzzling. When looking after pets in their owners home, I endeavour to follow the same routines that pets are used to, in order to minimise disruption.
Ratings and reviews
James house sat at our home for a week with our two labadors Dennis and Skye. James came and did pre visit for reassurance for us prior to our trip. James provided daily updates on dog walking routes and pictures of the two of them frequently. James provided first aid for Dennis after a cut on his foot and gave excellent communication of updates of the heeling. James kept our house tidy throughout and I felt reassured throughout our trip everything at home was safe. I would recommend James for dog sitting as an excellent choice.


Excellent dog walking service from James. Professional, caring and reliable, with clear communication from start to finish. Happily recommend and would book again.

James stayed in our home for 2 weeks with our 2 dogs whilst we went on holiday. He was extremely professional, listened and understandstood our dogs needs, sent many photos of our dogs enjoying themselves, always provided updates and looked after our home at the same time. I would absolutely use James again, our dogs loved him and we never once worried about them.

Schedule
I usually work from home and have flexible hours. This makes it easy to fit pet care around my routine. I try keep my calendar updated a month in advance, as I sometimes travel for work/research.
- 0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kg18 to 45 kgover 45 kgE. James can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
- Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioural issues that aren't already flagged on your pet profile. I'm happy to work with reactive/aggressive dogs but I would need a trial visit/walk to assess suitability before repeat bookings.
