Let’s go for a walk!

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs since I was a kid. I’m good with pretty much every dog I’ve ever met. Never been bit or had a dog not like me. I work full time but work 5 minutes from home so I can come home during breaks if needed. I also make my own schedule so with enough notice I can move my days off to match the needs of a dog. I walk my dog as much as he’ll go depending on the weather. Usually shorter walks during the hot parts of the day and nice long walks when it cools off. We have multiple parks nearby and only 2 blocks from the lake. My dog sleeps in bed, and is crate trained. He’s gotten a lot older so now he mostly just sleeps and cuddles. Plays a little but is calm and quiet.

James did a great job watching my dog while I was gone, he made sure to stay in touch with me the whole time and send me pictures from my baby. I definitely will be leaving Tucker with him again.

My dog Eva, has a lot of special needs due to her having Cushing disease and allergies. James dealt with all of them with understanding and caring, while at the same time giving us daily updates and sharing pictures of her hanging with his dog.

James took great of my doggo! He walked her twice per day and fed her according to instructions. She wagged her tail pretty furiously whenever he comes around! James is great with her and is super respectful to my family as well.

Information James K. would like to know about your pet

If you dog has any special needs; it won’t be a problem. If the dogs needs to be separated to eat then my dog knows to stay out of the kitchen. Extra walk? Of course! Any meds need to be taken, I give my dog an allergy med daily so it’s not a problem. If you dog has any issues eating( a lot of dogs don’t eat due to nerves) I ask for more information on what I can give them to encourage them to eat; wet food, food toppers, raw food, etc.

A typical day

My dog loved to sleep but will feed off the energy of another dog. So if they want to play they’ll play until they decide to cuddle up and pass out. I live on a nice shaded street with tons of grass. I also have multiple parks on all sides of me. Usually when it’s not to hot I’ll walk my dog the 2 blocks to the parks by the lake or even the beach.
