Highlights
Pet care experience
Mature, reliable dog(and cat!)-sitter here to help
Having grown up with both dogs and cats in the family home, I've been the go-to for friends and family alike when it comes to walkies and pet-sitting - sometimes even for weeks at a time (get those holidays in the calendar!) This extensive experience also means I have no problem looking after multiple animals at a time, should you have more than one cat or dog you need minding. And as I'm in my mid-thirties, you can rest assured that you'll have a mature and responsible sitter looking after your prized pooches.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety is of paramount importance to me. Doors and windows will always be kept shut, feeding times will always be adhered to, and I'd be more than happy to send updates throughout the day/photos during walks. Knowing that every dog is different, I will tailor my approach to your specific pet. Simply let me know if they are nervous around other animals or have any particular requirements and I will act accordingly. And as I don't drink, you can be safe in the knowledge that you'll always have someone totally focused on looking after your pets and your home.
Ratings and reviews
James is absolutely amazing with my dog Jeremy! He has walked him in the past and Jeremy remembers and loves him! Would definitely recommend James as a great dog walker!
James took exceptional care of Minou. She warmed to him straight away and he kept us regularly updated with photos and videos which we absolutely loved. Would definitely have James look after Minou again, thank you so much!
James was amazing with my dog Jeremy! Jeremy absolutely loved James and warmed to him straight away!
I ask James to look after my cat whenever I am away - gives me such peace of mind knowing the care and attention he gives
James was an absolutely fantastic catsitter for our cat Lily – enthusiastic, proactive and genuinely caring throughout. It was his first time using an asthma inhaler with a cat, but he took it upon himself to research feline asthma, watch videos and learn the signs to look out for, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We can be quite picky and particular about Lily’s schedule and routines, but James really respected the structure we had in place and picked up right where we left off – he adapted quickly and paid attention to the little things, which goes a long way for Lily and for our peace of mind. He also took great care of our home, being especially careful with our new couch and making sure Lily didn’t scratch it, and we came back to a happy, relaxed cat and a spotless house. James was reliable, trustworthy and easy to communicate with from start to finish, and we would definitely book him again – thank you for everything, James! Love from Lily, Hiren & Kathryn
James was incredibly reliable and my cat was extremely fond of him. Would highly recommend!
