Pet care experience
Wealth of Experience
Hi, my name is James and I am an active and energetic animal lover that has had dogs and cats my entire life. In addition to my own pets, my wife and I have fostered with local dog and cat rescues for the past 10 years. My love for animals doesn't stop there, I have worked in the zoological industry for the past 20 years. My first 15 years as a zookeeper and the last 5 as a zoo curator. If you have domestic farm animals or exotics of any kind, I am very comfortable caring for them. I have experience administering medications and specialized diets, as well as, giving injections as needed. If you are looking for someone with a wealth of experience in caring for animals, please reach out.

Safety, trust & environment
I'd prefer not to take care of any pets in my home for the time being due to the fact that we have several fosters, as well as our own pets.
Ratings and reviews
James did a great job watching our dog while we were overseas for two weeks. He took care of everything and went above and beyond, even cooking chicken for our dog who went on a hunger strike while we were gone. We were able to vacation without any worries, knowing that our pup was in good hands!
James is a phenomenal caretaker! With over 35 years of experience in taking care of animals, I have no hesitation leaving animals in his care regardless of type. He has a second sense when it comes to animal behavior and communication and knows what they are thinking or doing even before they do. You won't go wrong with choosing him to take care of your pets.
