Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two lovely dogs who are very playful! And a family who is very loving towards dogs and supports me with their care! I also love animals just overall no matter what they are!

Information James D. would like to know about your pet

There dietary restrictions, any medical issues! But also there meal timing and potty timing, what they like to do during the day and how they are energy wise!

A typical day

What I do to have your dog fulfilled physically and mentally is by challenging them with fun games and running around with them! I also love taking dogs on walks and testing them and myself!

James is the person I’d go to with any pet needs. He’s great with all animals but especially dogs! Having raised 3 of his own, one being a service dog for the blind, he has lots of experience already. His work as a vet assistant in the past also helped expand his knowledge. As a close friend of his, all the dogs in my life love him as much as he loves them. You can tell how much he cares, which is what matters most to me in a sitter or trainer.
