Pet care experience

Pro Pet Sitter/Treat Dispenser

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for years, and I’m the go‑to person friends rely on when they need someone responsible to look after their pets. I’m comfortable with shy pets, high‑energy ones, seniors, and anyone who needs a little extra patience. I learn each pet’s routine quickly and keep things running smoothly while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just hanging out, I make sure your pets stay happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I take safety seriously and make sure pets stay secure and comfortable at all times. I follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates checked, and stay alert on walks and during visits. I keep a calm, steady environment so pets feel relaxed, and I always make sure they’re supervised, safe, and sticking to their normal routine.

House Sitting • may. 26, 2026

Amazing sitter! All 3 of my dogs loved him and he left our house looking good and also prepped the bowls for our dogs before leaving so we wouldn’t need to do it when we got home and it was such a nice gesture!

House Sitting • jun. 25, 2023

James did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was on vacation. He sent me pics and videos every day so I could see how my boys were doing. The house was spotless and so was the litter box. Highly recommend! And I would definitely re-hire.

James stayed with my dog Rhea and my cat Beau. He send me regular updates of how they were doing and even sent me pictures of them throughout my trip! I knew they were in great hands!! Once I got back I could tell that Beau and Rhea had a great time! He left my place spotless, just how I left it! James was great with them, and I would happily leave them with him again!! James is trustworthy and the regular updates of my pets, made me feel super at ease while I was traveling!

Before I meet your pets, it’s helpful to know their routine, energy level, and any quirks or sensitivities they have. Let me know about feeding schedules, favorite activities, and anything that makes them nervous or excited. If they have medications, special instructions, or house rules you want followed, I’m happy to stick to them. The more I know ahead of time, the easier it is to keep your pets comfortable and on track.
