Availability
I work full time outside of the home, but evenings and weekends are devoted to the dogs. Week days will be a focus on play with time outside to smell the grass. Weekends are for the trails. Some excursions will be day trips while others will be two or more days of backpacking. GPS tracking will be provided during trail adventures.

Safety, trust & environment
The yard is currently not fenced in, but retractable leashes are used to allow dogs to roam while remaining safe. Shadow and I predominately focus on trail adventures for your dog We remain happy to accept dog guests at home who acknowledge that the yard is not fenced and the visiting dog has demonstrated 100% recall. I am pet CPR trained, attentive, and caring.
Home
Information James T. would like to know about your pet
Medications, allergies, special accomodations, and temperament around children and other pets will help me to plan a positive experience for your dog's visit. Energy levels will inform me on the at home activities to ensure proper exercise requirements are met.
A typical day
We have a yard large enough for fetch. Other games include hide and seek and tug of war. For dogs of a more mellow disposition, treat puzzles will be offered. (High energy dogs will also have this option.)

Reviews

Rory had a great time and made some new friends. John was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely use him again.

James is wonderful and Bëar had a great time with him during our time away. I highly recommend him.

We had a wonderful experience with James. He has a great process for new dog introductions. My pup was very happy after her walk with him.


Our doggos love spending time with James!
