I like pets better than people.

Pet care experience

I have special experience with a variety of animals. Additionally, I've studied behavioral training. Growing up we had rabbits and rats, my sisters have had multiple large size dogs, and we currently have six cats in our family.

James is a very dependable pet sitter. She has gone above and beyond caring for my cat, who is not easy. I appreciate her dedication and kindness to our needs.

This is I think our third time having James check in our cats. As before, she’s been very communicative and great with them. We get lots of photos and a thorough visit summary each time. Thank you!

We had James dog sit/house sit for us over the summer and she was great! I am quite nervous leaving our dog with anyone, because she slips off her leash and has lots of naughty behaviors mixed with anxiety. However James was fantastic. She spent quality time with our dog and sent photos to keep us updated on everything. I highly recommend James for house/pet sitting! 💜🐾

James is very conscientious, and the pets are always relaxed and happy when we come home.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm highly aware that being allowed into someone's house is a tentative and sacred allowance. I take all the care to be respectful of human environments while caring for your most beloved pet/baby. My ultimate goal is to become best friends with your animal family member.

Information James H. would like to know about your pet

How'd you meet your furry friend, rescue, universe, pet store? All are okay, and good for me to know. I love all ages, breeds, and needs, so please let me know all about your buddy. Any and all medication expectation I must know prior to giving care to ensure safety for all of us. Also, please let me know if your little guy has a favorite toy, game, or treat! I'd love to surprise them by know exactly what they love ?

A typical day

I'll drop by to clean the water dish, let out to pee (5min outside time), provide meds, feed, etc. Imagine a friend stopping by to have a cup of tea/ bowl of chow and chat/scratch time. My goal is to be a human treat in the midst of your animals day.
