Highlights
Pet care experience
I love all animals.
I have owned cats ever since I moved out on my own. I grew up with dogs, both big and small. Some of my best memories revolve around our enormous black Labrador retriever named dan. I also love small dogs and I am committed to the safety and well-being of all pets that are entrusted to me

Ratings and reviews
James Bryant Smith is a consummate professional in everything he does. He is responsible and kind, resourceful and creative, clear and driven. He is both reliable and flexible and has a real sense of humor. And his passion for animals and his ability with them is incredible. When our family adopted our sweet cat, Anatole, we didn’t know as much as we should have about what it meant to take care of our feline friend. But Bryant was there for us, teaching us about cat behavior, helping us get a good setup in our house, demonstrating how to clip toenails, etc. If there’s someone you can really trust with your pets, it’s Bryant.
I cannot recommend Bryant enough for his outstanding care of my cat, Kitty Purry. From the moment we met, it was clear that he truly loves and understands animals. He went above and beyond to ensure that Kitty Purry was well-fed, entertained, and, most importantly, comfortable while I was away. His updates and photos gave me complete peace of mind, and I could tell that Kitty Purry was in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive, Bryant is the perfect choice. I will absolutely be reaching out to him again in the future!
He took such great care of my cat. They became instant friends. He was very dependable and punctual. I will definitely use him again 😻

Schedule
I work part-time as a college professor, so there are days where I am completely free. On the days I do work, they are typically less than 8 hours shifts. I live alone with one cat but I have a screened in porch and a fenced in backyard. I also live in a great neighborhood for walking dogs.
