Highlights
Pet care experience
Adventurous Dog Dad
I started doing Rover to have friends around for my dog. As he started to age, I quit sitting simply to focus on him. Unfortunately I lost him in spring of 24. I started Rover again just to help with grieving. It's truly been a blessing. I typically don't sit more than one household of dogs at a time simply because I treat them as my own versus 'dog-sitting'. Let me know if you have any questions.

Ratings and reviews
James was great and my dogs looked liked they were having so much fun! He took excellent care of them. I’ll definitely be booking with him again.
James is always wonderful with our three dogs — he sends lots of pictures, takes them on great hikes, and is flexible with timing. Thank you, James!
James was great! He did lots of activities with our very active dog and gave us lots of updates.
James is the best! He treats my dogs with the same love and care that I give. He sends lots of pics and updates, and gives them off leash time daily. My dogs are excited anytime I drop them off, so I know they’re in good hands
James was great with our high energy pup! Socha got lots of play time, fetch and all the toys and snuggles he could want. Highly recommend James!
James absolutely went above and beyond for my sweet Loki. He’s been having a hard time adjusting to a recent move, so I was nervous to leave town. James sent me updates throughout each day I was gone, and took him out hiking and exploring each day!! Each evening I received updates of a happy, sleeping pup. 10/10 will reach out to James whenever I have a trip where my dogs can’t join me!

Schedule
I work part-time at home and part-time around the valley. I almost always took my dog to work with me and have a long list of favorite parks, hikes and other special areas that I would regularly stop at during the day. I also have a large doggie door and fenced backyard. I have cameras around the house. I always took my dog out to parks or hikes regularly. Every weekend I always did something outdoors with my dog.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat the dogs I watch as if they were my own. I strongly prefer dogs that are allowed on furniture and 99% of the dogs that stay with me end up sleeping in my king size bed with me! For dogs that need exercise, I strongly prefer dog parks or hikes (preferably off leash) versus dog-walking around the neighborhood.
Pets
A typical day
I prefer to take dogs with me everywhere I go. I bought a Prius so I could do this year around (electric AC if/when needed). I spend a lot of time in the mountains including at my trailer on 20 acres at Tollgate during the weekends.
