Energetic Dog Lovers

Pet care experience

Welcome! My name is James and my partner's name is Matthew. Both of us have extensive knowledge of pet care and have had dogs all throughout life. I’ve been doing Rover for roughly 5 years now and taking care of neighbors, friends, and family pets for the majority of my life. My partner has been a great help with me and my rover clients and is always available to help out as well. We have 2 dogs of our own, Arthur is a 6 year old Shepadoodle and then Carl, our 2 year old Sheepadoodle. They are VERY friendly boys and full of energy and excitement. They are well socialized through friends, going to dog parks, and going out with us to dog friendly breweries and other places. Also, let me know if you would like to be featured on our Instagram. We recently started the page and would love to post some pictures of the pups and kitties we take care of on there! The account is @rover_ferguson 😁 Pet care is a daily routine of ours and we ensure to take the best care of our pups and those we are taking care of. We are flexible on times so if you would like to book with us in a time frame outside of the rover time frames, let us know. Currently accepting new clients! My schedule is same each week with working from 9 am to 5:30 pm with an hour break at 2 pm, with weekends off. I will try my best to accommodate and make a plan to coordinate care. Caring for our dogs and those that we watch are our number one priority. We make sure to provide the best care possible as they are under our responsibility while caring for them.

James is amazing with our dog. Our dog can be skittish with new people and James was so patient with him at the beginning. Now, our dog trots out the door after James without a second thought. James is reliable, a good communicator, and great with our dog. So happy to work with him!

Safety, trust & environment

I always ensure safety when caring for someone else's pet. If we are going on a walk, the leash goes on before the door gets opened and the leash doesn't come off until the door is closed behind us. I have many years of experience working in a behavioral health environment and ensuring my surroundings are secure and safe and I apply that awareness when walking my own dogs in the city and yours.

Information James F. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have any special eating restrictions, how they are around other dogs, if they are male/female and if they are spayed/neutered.

A typical day

We love to explore the city and are enjoying getting to know all of the best places that are dog friendly. We are new to the Seattle area and cannot wait to explore more of the city and surrounding outdoors.
