Availability
Working as a photographer, my schedule is pretty flexible, with time most days for drop-ins/walks and with a few days notice I can cater to overnight stays. While I am flexible with work, I can have jobs come up at short notice which generally isn’t an issue as long as the dogs in my care are okay with being alone for a few hours (typically 2, but occasionally up to 3)

About James P.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
After an initial consultation, I tailor my service to what is required for the dogs in questions. I only offer visits and home-stays; ensuring your dogs are at ease in their own environment
Information James P. would like to know about your pet
Are you comfortable with your dog being off the lead, and do they have good recall? Do your pets have any allergies? Are you happy to have photographs taken of your pets (I am a photographer)?
A typical day
I love to get out on nature walks, finding wide open spaces for the dogs in my care to run freely around and playing games with them. One of my favourite things to do is blowing bubbles as I often find dogs and cats can have a lot of fun chasing and popping them.

Pet care experience
Growing up I was often surrounded by animals; hamsters, rabbits, chickens, dogs, cats, and even a gecko. With my dad being a vet, I’d occasionally find myself waiting in his staff room after school with the staff dogs, or helping with those being left for monitoring overnight. This affinity for animals has followed me well into adulthood, now working as a pet and wildlife photographer! Though my puppy experience is limited to my own and a few friends, adult and senior dogs are where my skills lie. Sadly a year ago I had to say goodbye to my 17 year-old border terrier, who was my whole world for a long time.
Reviews
We are very happy to have found James ! Our dogs liked him straight away, he knows a lot about dogs and is very good with them Specially with our collie/lab which can get very scared at times , he managed her behaviour very well! He is very polite and respectful and very calm person which is just what dogs need , will definitely call him again , thanks James
James is the best pet caregiver my dogs could have had. He’s the most animal loving person I’ve ever met. He’s very patient and responsible and it shows when it comes to taking care of pets. His calmed attitude made my dogs comfortable around him in no time. I’d have him taking care of my dogs again without hesitation.
I have known James for just shy of 10 years and I have never found anyone else, that I personally, would allowed to take care of my pets. To speak of him as a person, I don’t believe there is someone that I feel more at ease and comfortable around. He is well mannered, polite and one of the most genuinely kind people I know. He will make sure to look after your babies as if they were his own. He has had pets from being very young, and knows what it takes to look after them (as he had a dog growing up). He is aware of all the demands a pet can have. from walking regularly to making sure they’re fed and watered adequately, but also knows that they need to be shown a lot of love. Highly recommend James as a walker/sitter.
Jamie provides a warm and welcoming feel. His calm presence will make anyone feel like home! Throughout the time I’ve known him, Jamie has delivered a safe space for myself and my beautiful boy, Paddy, the French Bulldog. He has shown great kindness, compassion and generosity towards animals, reflecting on his pet photography business, where you can clearly see with the pictures he has captured, just how happy pets and owners are! I have no doubt in my mind that Jamie will shine through this.
