I’m here when you can’t be!

Pet care experience

Retired Army Vet, who is home full time and able to give your pets the attention and care they deserve! I understand your pet is not only your best friend but also a part of the family! I have experience in providing attentive and compassionate care to all animals. My focus is to ensure the well-being and safety your pets under my care and to make sure they are loved like they would be at their own home! I love meeting and caring for all animals! I have many dogs and cats that I care for on a regular basis and hope I get the chance to care for your best friend! I currently walk and care for animals, while home. From boarding to sitting, I live in a quiet apartment and gated community located on the Lady Bird Trail with private access directly to the trial for easy access to take long and frequent walks! I love going on walks so they will get a lot of walking in! We also have a small dog park within the property for residents and their dogs as the community as a whole is extremely dog friendly! So they will have the option to play and socialize if they are able and interested! I have a 2 bedroom apartment with one room dedicated for cats and kittens should the need arise to separate pets. I have my own kitten and dog and they both are extremely friendly and with other dogs and cats, but have watched many pets that cannot co-mingle. So absolutely can handle that situation if needed! While at your house, I will treat and care for it as if it was my own and make sure your fur babies are loved and taken care of! Can't wait to meet your best friend and companion!

James was great! I could tell Apollo was having a good time and was in a great mood when I picked him up. It seems like his dog and mine became best friends. Would be my first choice for dog sitting services

James has had animals his whole life and he truly treats them like they are his human children. He loves both dogs and cats and has one of each. He prioritizes the health and training of his dog over everything. He's someone who truly cares. He's watched my cats many times and he takes wonderful care of them as if they are his own. I would recommend him to any/all people looking for someone they can trust.
