Pet care experience

Laid back but active sitter!

Living in Tremont I am able to help watch and walk dogs all over the city and surrounding area. I work from home and can help during the day as well if that is what your dog would require. Adaptive to any needs for any dog, whether you have an easy going, high energy, older or just a puppy. Will take walks throughout the city as well as in the parks and other hiking trails around the area. Can walk multiple times a day if required. I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember and have had several breeds, so I am willing to take care of any breed or mix of dog. Can't wait to meet you and your pup!

James was easy to coordinate & communicate with and sent photos of Winnie enjoying play time as well as relaxing. It was clear that Winnie enjoyed her stay with James and his dogs.
