Pet care experience
I’ve grown up with dogs since high school (15 years), starting with a daschund and most recently my late Labrador retriever. My partner and I also pet sit friends pets on the side (dogs and cats included) and believe that dogs deserve all the pets, walks, and love they want! Experience with small to medium/large dogs from ages 1-13; I’m very attentive to their behavior (leash aggression, separation or general anxiety, reward drives, bathroom habits) and proactively look for ways to ensure they have the happiest and most relaxing experience! My partner and I will be dog sitting together and she is fully remote, while I am remote 3 days a week! The best times are Friday to Sunday but at least one of us will always be home (most times will be both of us) to spoil and become besties with your pet! We live across the street from a kids park but also have a secure fenced yard outside where the dog can use the bathroom and get some daily sunlight! Our house sits in a quiet neighborhood with very walkable streets and a few dogs. The inside of our home is made for comfort with a nice couch to relax on and plenty of floor space to splay out or play. We are both very conscious of putting away plants, shoes, food, and wastebins that may catch your dogs attention :). We are very active and therefore flexible to your pooch’s energy levels, whether it be walks, playtime, or quality pets time on the couch!
Reviews
Jack Jack was super happy. Highly recommend!
10/10 recommend! James & Kristina were wonderful watching our pup Louie while we were out of the country for a week. We received so many pictures and daily updates which left us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip even more. You can tell they really love dogs and take the responsibility of watching someone's beloved pet very seriously. Louie came home healthy & tired and you can't ask for anything better than that!
James and Kristina are incredibly reliable and caring. It was our first time using Rover and in fact first time leaving our 3 year old baby behind with complete strangers. Lots of anxiety and concerns leading to our international trip. James and Kristina assured us that our dog would be in good hands, but it’s still difficult not to worry when you are leaving your baby behind, right? Within few hours of dropping our baby off with James and Kristina, we felt very safe and 100% felt that we’ve made the right decision to trust our dog with them. They are very caring and kept our dog very busy. They sent lots of photos and videos and it was clear that our dog was having so much fun with them. She got lots of cuddles and love! We would rely on them with our dog anytime and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found them! Our dog came home healthy and happy and we can tell she already misses them! Thank you James and Kristina for giving Wagyu the best time!
James and Kristina took great care of my dog. They were accommodating of my dog’s routines and her medication. My dog seemed comfortable and happy in their care. They sent me regular updates with photos and videos. James and Kristina even sent my dog home with a Christmas gift. I highly recommend James and Kristina!

A typical day
Your dog's interests and activities are also mine- we'll explore all the blocks (and grab some new territory), meet some neighborhood friends at the park, relax with a book at the dog-friendly cafe, play fetch in the backyard, and finish off with lots of belly rubs and ear scritches on the couch!
