Beagle Dad & Creative Caregiver

Pet care experience

I grew up in a home full of animals, including dogs, cats, and birds, so caring for pets has been a big part of my life from an early age. Over the years I’ve developed a calm, patient l approach to training and have successfully worked on manners and basic cues with every pet I’ve owned. I recently finished my master’s degree at Carnegie Mellon University and now work in the entertainment industry, which gives me a flexible, creative schedule and a strong sense of responsibility and communication. I share my life with a 3‑year‑old beagle named Patti LuPup, and we love spending time in nature together exploring trails and parks. Because I’m so used to reading different animal personalities, I’m comfortable with shy, energetic, or quirky pets and always focus on making them feel safe, engaged, and loved. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, active playtime, or quiet company, I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family.

James was wonderful! He kept us updated the entire time and left our home spotless. We would love to have him watch our dogs again in the future!

James has always had such a special connection with animals, especially his sweet dog Patti. The love, patience, and care he gives her says everything about the kind of pet caregiver he is. He’s incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely treats pets like family. I would trust him wholeheartedly with any animal, knowing they’d be safe, loved, and spoiled with attention. Any pet owner would be lucky to have James caring for their furry friend!
