Responsible, reliable and caring

Pet care experience

I’m a newly retired veteran who is looking forward to serving others. Bonus!!! My wife has been in the veterinary field for over 14 years and I have worked with military working dogs during my career. I’m extremely reliable and responsible. I have two dogs of my own, three Guinea pigs and 7 chickens.

James was extremely flexible and very easy going. I was very comfortable letting him take my dog. My dog is really skittish and isn’t trusting of strangers. James was super patient with her and let he take her time bonding with him. Would hire again!

James was great! He showed up on time, took extra good care of my three babies, and communicated well. As a bonus, he took spectacular pictures. I'd definitely recommend him. Having an adult care for your fur babies is extra comforting and he definitely is responsible.

Information James B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know how they like to be approached. What commands do they know. Do they have favorite treats. Do they do well on a leash.

A typical day

I love going on walks and playing fetch with dogs. Playing with cats is also enjoyable, but mostly I like relaxing with cats. Hiking is one of my favorite activities. I’m just learning how to train my GSP puppy to hunt upland game, it’s been a fun new experience for the both of us.
