James did a good job. Easy to communicate with, and very quick eith responses both prior to booking and throughout which is a grrat trait. Sent daily pictures. And overall a smooth experience. As an added bonus, he and his wife gifted my dog a ball he apparently fell in love with lol - that was sweet.

Jason and his wife were absolutely amazing with my basset, Chewie! They stepped in on a last minute request and gave him all the love and care I could have hoped for. It was clear from the start that they truly love dogs, and Chewie felt right at home with them. I got updates that gave me complete peace of mind, and I could tell he was happy and well looked after the entire time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Jason and his wife went above and beyond. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitters.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a huge fenced in backyard. I like to keep things how you have them at home. I don’t usually crate the puppies at night, but if that’s where they feel safe then we can do that. Otherwise, they are more than welcome to sleep in the bed with me.

Pets

A typical day

I would take them for walks, play fetch, and give them lots of love and attention. We might also try some new games or activities to keep things exciting!
