Pet care experience

Experienced animal carer and walker

Hi! I'm James, I have worked at an animal hospital for over a year and have experience walking, feeding, handling, and taking care of dogs, cats, and other animals. I'm also trained to handle various exotic pets. I also have over 2 years of experience as a dog walker.

Safety, trust & environment

I have the most experience caring for exotic and small pets, and know how to engage with them, handle them, feed and care for them. I also have experience caring for dogs and cats and am able to notice unusual behavior and can alert the owner or potentially a veterinarian about it if need be. When I pet-sit I usually walk, feed, and spend time engaging and playing with the animal to make sure they don't miss out on exercise or socialization.

House Sitting • Feb 17, 2026

I felt very comfortable leaving my house & pets in James’ care for an overnight. He was communicative and asked great questions. The house and our fur babies were well cared for.

James is wonderful with animals! He is very caring and very responsible. He worked at a veterinary clinic and just loved caring for the animals there. He understood what each animal was going through emotionally and responded lovingly. He also walked neighbors' dogs when they were away. People felt safe putting their pets in his care. He cared for several animals in his home as well - hamsters and rats. He was always so kind to them. He has a warm heart. I highly recommend him!
