Dude looking for weekend fur-ends
I've had dogs my whole life. Grew up in a house with 2+ dogs near constantly. All family dogs were 60+ lbs each with the largest being 110lbs. My 75lb dog crossed the rainbow bridge Sept 2025, I am not ready for a dog full time but I do miss the company. I will spoil your dog. I do not care about breed.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
James has been taking care of our dogs for several years. Our dogs connected with him immediately. He spends extra time playing fetch and tug and helped teach the puppy basic commands! It is obvious to us that our dogs enjoy being with him. His home and fenced yard are perfect for active dogs like our Husky and Labradoodle. We trust him implicitly to care for them with medications and mealtimes. He sends us pictures and updates while we are away which is comforting. James has been extremely flexible should there be a last-minute change needed. We just cannot say enough wonderful things about the care and attention the dogs receive from James. We are incredibly happy – You will be too!

Schedule
I am looking for weekends. I work full time, so I am ready to go around noon on Friday and depending on the needs can be around all weekend. Generally I do leave the house during the weekend for a couple hours during the day to do chores and stuff but other than that can be a total home body. If the dog is good on leash I have a great neighborhood to take walks. If you are looking for me to stay at your house over the weekend, I can provide as much potty coverage as you request. If you want me to stay over the week, I do have a day job with my schedule being 7-3.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a 8ft privacy fence the whole way around my backyard with a dog door. I do not have a crate, but I can use yours if you want your dog crated. I follow your food rules. I used to make hot breakfast/dinner for my dog. I do keep some dog treats in the house but I will check with you if your dog can have that specific treat first and if there are any dietary needs. If you want me to stay in your house, lets write the rules down and I'm happy to do whatever. If you have poor cellphone service, it'd be great to get a wifi password.
A typical day
I have a lovely neighborhood to walk in and if your dog is good on leash I live close to Quiet Waters Park. Happy to take the dog to the park and walk the trails with them. I will not let your dog off leash outside of the house or backyard. The evenings are chill and if they want to sleep on the couch or bed that's cool with me. If your dog needs multiple walks a day thats fine too. My neighborhood is very friendly to foot traffic.
