Worked with Dogs My Whole Life

Pet care experience

I've lived with and taken care of dogs my whole life. Mainly my own family's pets, but also my neighbors. Most of my experience is with larger more athletic breeds such as Labs, German Shepherds, Pitbulls, and Mastiffs, but I do have experience with smaller breeds like Terriers and Dachshund. If your dog needs specialized attention (i.e. medicine or disabled) I'm more than capable of taking care of them. I also have experience with dogs who have been declared legally 'Dangerous' or dogs that have inflicted harm on humans. If your pup likes to swim I do have access to a beach on Lake Norman that I'm sure they'd enjoy! Unfortunately, I'm not able to board dogs at my own personal residence. I do have two dogs of my own. They're both Italian Mastiffs!

James was so great with my overactive jumping boxer. I would definitely use him again

Information James P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know the basic temperament or personality of your dog. Are they shy? Attention seekers? How will they behave on a walk? Do they pull the leash constantly or do they hang back? Do they like to escape? And if so where do you usually find them? Etc. I would also like to know the basic background of your dog (including medical history). Did they come from a breeder or a shelter? Do they have any past or current injuries or ailments? Etc. I don't really have a preference in regards to breed. I can comfortably handle dogs up to 200lbs.

A typical day

I live close to Lake Norman State Park, and if your dog is big walker / runner I know a few good trails I can take them on. Again if your dog swims I can take them to a beach I know of on Lake Norman.
