I give the best walks in the biz.
Pet care experience
I've had my rescue dog, Savanna, for more than eight years. I have walked and cared for many families' and friends' dogs and am especially adept at handling high-energy pups. I can provide vigorous walks, if needed, or more relaxed jaunts for older dogs. I am very attuned to dogs' needs and will provide prompt and frequent bathroom breaks, play breaks, or training sessions, as requested and/or needed.
Reviews
James loves dogs and is an incredibly conscientious and reliable person. He will show up on time, provide loving care to your pet and follow your instructions to the T. He will go above and beyond to makes sure your dog is well taken care no matter what their personality is. You will not be sorry that you chose James to walk your dog!!
James is one of the most caring, thoughtful, and responsible caregivers for pets I have ever encountered. Our dog loves James so much that she 'hugs' him when she sees him! He shows enormous empathy and true care for her, and she knows it. I think animals 'know' truly good people--and James is one of the best. You will be lucky if James takes care of your pet.
James is an amazing dog walker because he LOVES dogs more than almost anyone I know. He’s kind, patient and sensitive to the different dogs and their personalities. James also loves spending time with dogs and being an athlete, loves going on long walks. I trust him implicitly with our dog. Highly, highly recommend. James is also a highly intelligent and empathic young man, beloved by all his clients.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am careful to provide a level of care that is curated to the individual needs of each pet. Every pet has different needs and preferences, and it is essential to build trust with a pet to ensure their well-being and safety. I am extremely patient with pets and capable of gently handling pets of all energy levels, sizes, and dispositions.
Information James H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any particular sensitivities, physical impairments, dislikes, or other preferences for snacks/games/activities. Every pet is different, and I want to provide the highest level of care possible to each individual pet. Please let me know if there are any things I should avoid doing -- or vice versa -- to make your pet feel as safe and happy as possible.
A typical day
I will tailor my daily routine with the pets to each pet's individual needs and wants! I love playing a variety of games, including fetch, tug-of-war, and find the treat. I can provide as much physical stimulus as needed, including frequent walks and play sessions both indoors and outdoors. I can handle many different energy levels and am always careful to match the energy level of the pet I'm watching to ensure their comfort and happiness.
