Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and cats on my farm. I love to go walking with dogs. I enjoy having dogs and cats around me. I am available for weekdays, weekends and lots of free time. My goal is to work more hours per week working with dogs and cats. I make sure that the pet is taken care of with water and food. Take the pet out for the walk and take care of the pet well.

James has been very communicative the whole time. This was my first time using Rover, and Simba seemed safe and happy. Thank you again.

I booked James to watch my dog Gatsby for a week of doggy day care. Gatsby has separation anxiety, and at our point in his healing from this condition we really needed a person who could be with him during the whole time at doggy day care. James was able to help with this. James has been a tremendous help during this time and would recommend him for any pet owners dealing with SA. He was communicative and provided medication for us. He also provides pictures and is communicative about when he is taking care of your pet.

James is just as amazing as everyone else has said! We panicked because we needed to get our dogs out of the house and had no real notice! Within 10 minutes of starting a rover account We had booked with James and for a very early morning start time no less!! He is obviously so kind to dogs and so capable as well as easy going. We are beyond grateful!!!!!!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
