Pet care experience
Loving Family w/ pool + dog friend!
I love dogs and am always trying to learn more about them. A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to win a contest to spend a weekend getting trained by Cesar Milan at his Dog Psychology Center in Santa Clarita, California. That experience has enabled me to comfortably manage many different dog breeds and personalities. Our own dog DJ (soft coated wheaten terrier) will help your pup feel at home, and keep them entertained with lots of play. We also have a nice pool in our backyard that is a must for dogs in summer Vegas, when it's too hot for walking! Your dog will be playing all day and can either sleep with my daughter Anabelle (9 years), with DJ, or in their own room, whichever they prefer.

Ratings and reviews
James was amazing with Bruno! He treated him like family, kept me updated, and gave Bruno a calm, comfortable and fun space to settle in. Bruno came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely book with James again — highly recommend!
James was great! Super easy to work with and helped us out last minute. He took our dog on walks. She was happy and well cared for when we picked her up. Would definitely book with him again!
James and his family were so fantastic! We were nervous to leave our pups for the first time but they took amazing care of them, treating them like members of their family :) Our dogs had an absolute blast running around with James' dog DJ, as evident in the videos James sent us! They have a beautiful home with a pool, grassy area and plenty of room for the pups to run around. Highly recommend!
As a pet parent, finding trustworthy and reliable care for my furry friend was top priority, and James did not disappoint. He sent me daily updates, including photos and videos of my dog playing and relaxing. My dog seemed so at ease, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely be booking again.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I'm currently working from home so I will be able to monitor your dogs interactions with our Dog DJ. We usually take a swim break around 1pm, and a walk in the evening if/when the temperature drops. DJ loves other dogs and will probably keep your dog busy playing in the house.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I completed Cesar Milan's "Training Cesar's Way" dog training course in Santa Clarita, CA, where Cesar personally taught me how to read universal Doggy body language, and to recognize problems before they arise. Our backyard is completely walled up with a grassy section on the basement level, a pool on the main level, and a shaded patio just up a flight of stairs from the pool. They will have plenty of room to explore and go potty. However, If its too hot outside and they don't like to swim, they can stay in the house all day. Whichever they prefer.

A typical day
I like to keep your dogs mentally and physically stimulated with games, play, and walks. I've found that most dogs behave much better after a nice pack walk. So everyday we will walk at least once, (early am in the summer) but often twice. This also helps keeping them potty trained in a new environment.
