Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets make the world go round!
I’ve always been a big dog & cat person, so I’ve taken on the lead role of caring for our family pets. For the past four years, I’ve been the head trainer and caretaker of our growing pack. I even guided my oldest pup, Bear, through all the levels of Zoom Room Belmont obedience training. And guess what? He passed AKC’s “Good Canine Citizen” test! In time, we added Jasmine, also known as Jazzy (cat), Potato, or Tayto (cat), and Miso, our rescue Shar Pei dog.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Working with James was great! He was quick to respond to my initial request and sent us timely updates during the visits. We also appreciate how thoughtful he was in ensuring Maya was comfortable.
James is a wonderful sitter. He sends great notes and photos every day, and we love the way he looks after everything our cats might need. Thanks, James!
5 STARS FOR JAMES!
Thank you for taking care of my Cardy! She looks forward to seeing you each time.
Great as always. Thanks James!
James went above and beyond with our skittish dog. She’s very nervous about strangers in the house but he was able to work with her.

Schedule
I’m the pet parent of all the furry kids in my care, and I make sure they’re well-fed and taken for daily walks. I also try to squeeze in a long walk or hike with them every week. My job is super flexible, so I can always work around my Rover friends’ schedules!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I would adhere to all house rules and instructions, ensuring that I meet the specific needs of your furry companion. I thoroughly document walks & visits through Rover cards, pics & videos.

A typical day
I make sure to take my furry friends on at least one long hike every week. Our local go-to trails are Mori Point, Pacifica Quarry, Milagra Ridge, Sweeney Ridge, Fort Funston, Pulgas Ridge, Sharp Park Beach, Seal Point in San Mateo, and the new trail/dog park at Oyster Point. I also practice daily obedience training and reinforcement with my pups. And of course, I always have plenty of healthy treats on hand!
