Pet care experience

Your dogs are going to love me!!!!

I've been animal obsessed my entire life. We have rescues that are deaf, blind, and crazy! My wife calls me the dogs whisperer because I have the ability to win over even the shyest of pups. If I see you with your dogs, the odds are I'm going to stop you to say hi. They make the world a better place. I have helped find homes for many dogs, goats, sheep, and pigs. My instagram is "nevertoomanydogs", check out the fun.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I do occasionally take care of pets in my own home, but it's usually non stop playtime so it gets a little crazy. When I come to your home I will obviously be respectful of your pet, property and neighbors.

James has watched our large assortment of animals in the past and is top notch when it comes to the care of them. We can relax on our vacations when we know James is watching our gang!

If leaving Jim a 5-star rating were possible, I would do so ten times over. I had to head back East for a family emergency and Jim watched my dog Sparky for me. He provided constant updates and you could tell he genuinely had good care in mind (and my dog loved him right from the jump - always a good sign). I ended up following him on Instagram and it further backed my belief of his love of animals! Highly recommend!

I personally recommend Jim to ANYONE thinking about getting a pet sitter! He is top notch and your fur family will not be in better hands! We've used Jim many times to watch our 112 animals. Yes, I said 112 animals. We run Happy Tails Mobile Petting Zoo and Jim was our go to guy when we needed someone we trusted to watch our precious fur babies. Jim has experience watching any kind of animal you can imagine! He has pet sat our dogs, cat, chinchillas, pigs, snakes, iguana, donkeys, goats, sheep, ponies, rats and even turkeys! Jim will even get spit on by a llama just to be with the animals! Don't ever question if he is the right person to watch your animals! You can 100% trust Jim with your animals!

I have never met a person who gives so much love and care to every animal he meets. He is great with shy dogs and aggressive dogs. I have both and Jim has even walked them separately to ensure our shy dog gets independent attention. I know my pups can’t wait for him to get there.

Jim is awesome and super friendly! He took care of my dog and was amazing. My dog has cancer and takes pills multiple times a week and he made sure she had everything she needed! I've known Jim for a long time and he loves animals probably more than anyone else I know!
