We moved to the area a few years ago and didn’t know anyone, so we were given a referral to James through a local Facebook group. We’re so glad we found him! James has been wonderful with our dog, and we feel completely comfortable having him stay in our home overnight. He is responsible, trustworthy, and caring toward our dog, and we know he is in good hands when we’re away. We especially appreciate how reliable and flexible he is, even when we need someone at the last minute. James is also respectful of our home and is just an all-around kind, dependable person. We’re very grateful to have someone we can trust with our dog and our home!

James took wonderful care of our Boston Terrier, Luna, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met him, he was friendly, responsible, and genuinely caring with Luna. Throughout her stay, he made sure she was comfortable, well-exercised, and received plenty of attention and affection. Luna can be particular about new people, but she warmed up to James quickly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. One thing we especially appreciated was that James took and sent us photos of Luna while we were gone. It was such a thoughtful touch and reassured us that she was happy, safe, and being well cared for. James was reliable, communicative, and attentive, and it was clear that he treated Luna like she was his own pet. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and would absolutely trust James to watch her again. We highly recommend James to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter!

James has been caring for our dog for many months. From the 1st time until present, he has always been dependable, willing to take on extra tasks as needed and spending extra time with our dog; Kacey to make her feel comfortable. It is obvious James enjoys spending time with Kacey and it is not just a job to him.
