Pet care experience

I’ve been well versed with dog care from the age of 13 and cats also hold a special place in my heart. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs at all ages and most sizes.

James was great! Excellent communication and on time for the visits—definitely eased the anxiety of being away from my cat! Went the extra mile and was such a sweetheart, not to mention he took the best pics too! Will totally book again if the opportunity arises

James did an amazing job looking after hank two days in a row! I’ve already booked him to look after my pet again.

James was an excellent sitter when he watched my two dogs: he was extremely communicative with me while I was away, and I came back to two happy pets! Would definitely rely on him the next time I go away!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very observant when it comes to your pet’s behavior and temperament and will adjust accordingly. I am very receptive to instructions and will adapt to any needs that need to be met. My top priority is to meet the needs of the pet and to ensure that the owner and their pets can trust me as a sitter!

Information James M. would like to know about your pet

What’s most important to me is the needs for any dog that I need to pay attention to or account for. One thing i’d like to be sure of is if the dog is fixed, able to interact with other dogs/people while on walks, and which activities are their go-to! Leash conduct is also very important to me. I have worked with many dogs with a variety of leash behaviors so I will most likely be able to adapt to their needs! I would just like to be made aware ahead of time :)

A typical day

I love to provide for dogs to ensure they get the most out of their time with me! Hotspots like Drexel park, Clark park, and Rittenhouse are all great spots I would love to take them to. I also do have a car so I would be able to take them to any other places upon request of the owner!

I am a full time Drexel student here in Philly and I do also work another job, so my schedule is very tight at the moment. I will try to update my schedule weekly as time goes on. But, to be transparent, I probably will not be available for multiple services a day or repeating services every day for weekdays. I will do my best to accommodate for walks and drop ins. I can also house sit in weekends!
