We will have a walking good time!

Pet care experience

My experience: I have been an active dog owner my entire life. Since the age of 9, I remember getting up at the wee hours of the night to take our brand new Irish setter puppy to the bathroom. Before and after school were always dedicated to training. I truly believe that dogs are a mans best friend, and they should be treated as such. If you choose to have your dog stay with us, rest assured they will be taken care of. About us: James- Born and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I recently moved down to Indianapolis to live with my now husband Chris. I am 33 years old and am extremely active. I am a full time diving coach and love spending time teaching others. I am thrilled to have the chance to walk and visit your fun loving pup!

This was just the right environment for our 2 yr old Lab Leela. She got along wonderfully with their dog and seem to genuinely enjoy herself! I cannot imagine ever having to use a kennel again. Just plain great!

Snicker had a great time with Jimmy and his goldendoodle, Lincoln! Jimmy was quick to respond to questions and I appreciated the "meet and greet" prior to booking to make sure that it was a good fit for both parties. Jimmy asked important behavioral and medical questions to ensure Snicker would get the best care during his time there, and I left at ease knowing that Snicker would be in a clean home with superb care. I will definitely book with Jimmy again in the future!

Jimmy provided a safe, comfortable and fun environment for Mac. Lincoln was a great companion right off the bat. It was a great peace of mind to know he was in great hands while we were out of town. We'll be back!

I'm very grateful to have found James R. on Rover.com. I've had some bad experiences with boarding for my dog, Lucaya, and wanted to find a more positive alternative for her. James is very friendly and responsive, and has a terrific home with a huge fenced yard! At the meet and greet, Lucaya got along well with his friendly pup Lincoln, and I was very happy to know my dog would have a playmate during her stay. When I dropped her off, she seemed to remember the meet and greet and was eager to go inside, and was very happy when I picked her up. I highly recommend James R., and hope Lucaya is able to stay with him again next time I need to travel.
