Safety, trust & environment

As I'm living in a small shared flat, unfortunately I cannot accommodate pets in my own home, however I'm more than happy to come over to care for your pets in your home! I'd be delighted to play with them, take them out for a run around the garden, feed them, and administer medicine if needed

Information James J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any medical requirements (if any) your pet has, such as prescribed medication, where to find it in your home and when to administer. I'm more than happy to cater for special needs pets too so please feel free to explain your pets situation. I'd also love to know your pets likes and dislikes to make our time together as positive as possible!

A typical day

Explore all the green spaces, parks, and forests with them, letting them sniff their way around this area and playing fetch or tug-of-war if they're the energetic type! For your older or slower ones, a casual stroll with plenty of smell and wee breaks before cuddling them back at home.

Pet care experience

I've taken care of cats and dogs since the age of fifteen, with friends relying on me to walk and take care of their dogs whenever they went away. I've owned a cat for a number of years who requires medicine every morning with her breakfast, so I am experienced in administering medicine to pets, in this case I crushed up a pill to put in her wet food.

James did a great job. He was patient with our reactive dog, and showed great care to look after them at short notice. We would book him again.

James house sat for us over a weekend, looking after our cat and dog. He was great, very communicative and clearly knows how to look after pets. Would definitely recommend home for anyone with a cat or dog 👍

Perfect! We felt very safe leaving our greyhound in his care. The communication was great and everything was very easy. We're definitely going to book him again.
