Safety, trust & environment

For the most part, the pet dictates the care. I like to stay consistent with their daily routine (walks, feedings, play, etc.) as I find it helps their anxiety and overall comfort. But what we do outside of that depends entirely on the individual pet whether it be hiking, throwing a toy across the living room 114 times (actually), or snuggling on the couch -- I am down for all of that and more. If your dog likes to run marathons though, I'm afraid I'll have to politely decline as I'll need my own sitter if I run for that long!

Information James T. would like to know about your pet

Any special accommodations, medications, dietary restrictions, bad habits or tendencies, triggers, comforts & preferences, or any unhappy ex’s that we might run into on our walk(s).

A typical day

We’ll probably learn some calculus, do a little karaoke, and finish the day off with some Wagyu steak… just kidding — we’ll do dog stuff for dogs and cat stuff for cats. Unless your cat is more like a dog in which case I will be asking to adopt.

Pet care experience

Once while driving, I pulled over because I saw a dog I wanted to meet — that’s me in a nutshell. Very dog and cat obsessed. I will care for your pet as if they were mine (because really, I will be trying my hardest to forget you exist). I am very detail-oriented by nature, observant to any behavioral or health changes, and respectful of any boundaries your pet may set. I had a German Shepherd of my own for many years but he recently passed. Thanks to the time Duke and I spent together, I am now well-versed in fetch etiquette (no take, only throw), leash aggression, picky eating habits, bloating, and the infamous long sigh when I don’t take him out for our 11th walk of the day.

James is amazing! He went above and beyond to take such wonderful care of our old anxious pup and was just so incredibly loving and patient with her! We so enjoyed his detailed updates complete with pictures, videos, and descriptions of how our dog was doing and how their day went. Not only has James been our favorite sitter but we are very certain that he is our dog’s favorite sitter too!!!

James was an excellent pet sitter and house sitter for us. He took amazing care of our dog and cat, to include over the July 4th weekend where our dog had significant fireworks anxiety. We got daily photos and videos, and its clear James really invested in engaging the animals in games and activities throughout his time caring for them. I think he even taught our dog some new tricks! Our home was returned even cleaner than he found it, which was unnecessarily kind of him. We hope to work with James again!

House sat for our pup. Did a great job with all our senior dogs quirks. Left the house spotless, but most of all, our dog was healthy and happy!
