Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
James has been so great at taking care of my boys when I travel. He is reliable, gives them plenty of attention, and my boys love seeing him. I highly recommend!


Love that our dogs get to play with other dogs, go on walks, and spend time with James!


James is the best. Thank you sooooo much!

Very helpful and checked in with updates.

James is a true dog lover! He was communicative and playful with my dog - highly recommend him to anyone in the area.

I had a great experience booking with James. Very communicative and treated my pup like family.

Calendar and availability
Schedule
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
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.
