Pet care experience

I have either owned or fostered dogs my entire life. After serving 9 years in the US Air Force I became a certified dog trainer through the Animal Behavior College and started training foster dogs for their forever homes. My family and I currently have 3 dogs (1 for each kid) and love every aspect of having them in our lives. I have a great sense of pride for the work I have done fostering and training dogs and will continue helping dogs in need as long as I can. I look forward to working with dogs of all sizes that are a part of a loving family and just need that little extra attention while you are at work or on vacation. Thank you!

The dogs had a great time and I got lots of pictures of their walk.

James is a Jem. We were very lucky to find him, and our giant four pawed child Loves him... probably more than she loves is..

Thank You very much for the care and attention you gave my tribe. Seeing the daily pictures and notes on how they were doing made it so much easier for me. I will definitely request your pet sitter services, if I ever go out of town again. I also was thrilled to see how each of the cats warmed up to you as the visits progressed, the siamese girls are definitely picky but you won them over. James gets my vote of approval 100%.

Great guy, and gentle with Nala. Accommodating and polite. Altogether impressed and delighted to have a knowledgeable and kind person walking my pup.

I will make sure your pet is well exercised, fed and medication given (if needed). I am not a clock watcher. If a visit goes a little long, so be it... Visit won't be cut short though! If you would like me to take your pup to a park or beach just let me know ahead of time and I will make it happen.

Information James B. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed or size restrictions but I do request the owner being present at the first meeting. This will help everyone involved become more comfortable and know I am the right person for the job.

A typical day

I can take your dog around the neighborhood or to a park/be h if preferred. If you need me to drop by for a check-in we can walk or just hang out playing in the yard.

I'm currently retired military and looking to stay busy. I have always enjoyed walking and playing with pets to help keep my mind clear and sanity intact.
