Since the very first time i met James, his love and affection for animals - especially dogs was clear. Having just adopted a new high output puppy - we relied on his experience and guidance to make sure the pup grew into the loving and protective dog he is today. He supported how he wished the dog to be cared for and proved himself time and again over the years with small and longer term care of our doggie. His own dog helped our puppy grow and became his best friend when he would play or stay over due to a last minute business trip or two. He also cared for our dog in our house at times when closer care was needed without fail. James is an amazing caretaker and is a big part of our extended family that makes living in South Florida our paradise. We are mature adults and our dog is key to our happiness. We have the strongest faith in James and trust no one else as much as we do him with our doggie and house when needed.

I have known James M. for decades and have experienced how his pets have always been wonderfully cared for and pampered with complete commitment and love. Your pet babies will be safe and cared for like loving family members.

James and I were neighbors, and he looked after my dogs several times over the years we lived next door to each other. He walked them, fed them, and loved them. They are reactive around other dogs, and he knew intuitively how to manage them on walks. They are medium sized dogs and he had no issues and they loved him. I would wholeheartedly recommend James for pet sitting or walking. He is really caring with animals.

We have known James pretty much since we rescued our dog, Makena. He reconstructed our kitchen and asked if he could bring his dog over to play with Makena while he was there. They got along so great that we asked him to take care of her when we would go on trips. We knew she was in good hands and well taken care of whenever we were gone. He would take her swimming (she loves it) and on walks around our neighborhood. He is going to be watching her soon again for us on an upcoming trip.
