Highlights
Pet care experience
Retired detective now pet sitting!
My family has had pets for most of my life, and most recently my wife and I have fostered and adopted several dogs that have become a part of our family. I retired after over 29 years in law enforcement, and I am now focused on providing reliable pet sitting. Your pets and home will be in good hands - I would love to help you out!

Safety, trust & environment
I like the idea of caring for pets in their own home, so they can stay in their familiar surroundings. I will fully coordinate with you in advance to make sure I am up to speed on feeding routines and anything else I need to be aware of. I will treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect, with the goal of earning your trust.
Ratings and reviews
Jim does a great job! He is reliable, responsive and our dog loves him! Knowing Jim is with our dog allows us to have a worry free trip.
James is fabulous with all four of my dogs. He always communicates and send me updates. He has managed to build a bond with my most challenging one who was adopted from an abusive background. Can not say how much he is appreciated.
Jim was amazing! He sent lots of photos and updates while watching our dogs. When we got home the dogs were clearly well cared for, tired and happy. We would absolutely book with Jim again and highly recommend his services to others.
We have had James take care of our dogs many times and as usual the pups were well taken care while we were gone.
James always takes the best care of my pups and I am able to enjoy my time away from them without worry.
I can’t say enough good things! He was so responsive and really took the best care of my dog and house. Will have James at the top of my list any time I need someone to watch her again
