Had dogs growing up. Was responsible for feeding, walking, and cleaning up after. Now I dog sit for friends, and have experience with various dogs big and small. Some have required special attention such as extended play or walks, medication, bladder issues, attachment, anxious/skittish. True dog lover

Doggy Day Care • Jun 20, 2026

We are here on vacation from Iowa. We decided to bring our 6 month old puppy. James was great with Lucy while we did our vacation things. Lucy had fun with Fortuna and was exhausted when we picked her up. We will definitely use him again.

Left our dogs with James and he took them for walks and played ball. When I’m in the area again I will use James if he is available
