Dog lover, only one dog at a time!

Pet care experience

My family had a yellow lab growing up and my aunts and uncles always had dogs as well. I’m an animal lover who will take care of your animal while you are away. I also live right by the beach/boardwalk and work from home. I can take your dog on multiple walks a day if wanted. My apartment complex is dog friendly and I have a number of neighbors with dogs. I take care of pets as if they are my own. I like to pet and play with them and try to make them feel at home while you are away. Will work to accommodate your wishes as best as possible!

James was great! He gave us regular updates, listened to all instructions, and Kobe came back to us happy and healthy. Would definitely use him again!

James took great care of my dog Smash! The lucky dog got to walk on the beach every day. We definitely recommend this sitter.

James was excellent with my dog! She is very energetic and can be a handful at times - but he assured me that they wouldn’t have any issues and they didn’t! He communicated really well and sent pictures! He even asked if he could take her on a hike. 10/10 and would definitely book him again!

We had no issues with James taking care of our little girl. Whenever we checked in he provided us an update and photo of her having fun on their walks. He was able to continue her antibiotic routine for the few days that were left and we were extremely grateful for that. When it came to picking her up I think our dog forgot all about us since she saw us and didn’t even react which means she was extremely happy being taken care of by James. We would definitely use James again in the future if he is available. Thank you for all your help and care James!

Safety, trust & environment

I always keep dogs on a leash unless given the okay from the owner. Safety of your dog while you are away is the most important thing to me.

I have a couple of meetings throughout the day but my job is not stressful. Therefore I’m able to take dogs out every couple of hours. On weekends I don’t venture too far from my apartment in Pacific Beach and if I do it’s not for long periods of time.
