Doggy Day Care • Sep 16, 2026

James was great! We had to book last minute and he was happy to help. Xhiggy came back exhausted. His backyard is great and he also took X for a beach walk. Very attentive for our Girl. Thank you James.

James is super chill and took care of our anxious Kuma with open arms. He provided us great comfort that Kuma would be well taken care of and the photos he shared proves it. His place has lots of space to roam and to burn off energy and his pup and other dog guests are great for socialization. We will use his services again for sure!

Chunk had an absolute blast. He was completely exhausted when he came home from playing on the beach.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 30, 2026

James was excellent with our dog, he took her to the beach and he had a great yard for her to explore. Our dog seemed very comfortable. James was very friendly and communicated well. We would highly recommend James

James is an exceptional host. Our girl Myla has the absolute best time in his care. She gets so much stimulation and exercise and James always sends the best photos. Leaving our girl with James gives us so much piece of mind. I have witnessed firsthand his passion and care for all the dogs he hosts. If you were ever on the fence, consider this endorsement. James is top tier.

James was SUCH a good host to our little dogs, and he was super communicative and easy to reach. Our dogs were clearly comfortable and relaxed at his house, and also clearly taken care of. They got lots of time adventuring, lots of time off leash, and also lots of supervision. And they looked like they loved hanging in pillow forts on the couch too. Thank you, James! We’ll see you again soon.
