Pet care experience

Dogs, cats, goats, sheep, ferrets

I've owned many dogs, a few cats, goats, a sheep, and a ferret over the past 25 years. Except for the goats, they were all rescue animals. I'm good at managing conflict between dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I only house sit so I will keep dogs on a lease at all times unless there is a fenced in yard. I'm good at preventing sneaky cats from escaping.

Jim is the very best pet/ house sitter I’ve ever had! He genuinely cares about my pets and treats them with the utmost of care and kindness. He is very responsible with pet medications and is always conscious of keeping them safe. I have one dog who has anxiety and doesn’t like most people but he absolutely loves Jim!! Jim is also extremely responsible where my house is concerned. He takes care of it as though it’s his own. When I return home my house is always tidy and well cared for. I never have to worry and can always enjoy my vacation when Jim is at my home!
