I have known Jim since 1995 professionally and personally. He is an exceptional trainer and care giver for all types of animals. I personally have entrusted him not only with my canines but with my horses as well. He meets the needs of animals with kindness and respect. He will be an excellent asset to your program. Your customers will be delighted working with him. He comes with many years of experience.

What you may not know about Jim is that he has been an Equestrian Trainer in the Dressage discipline most of his adult life. He has won many regional and national awards for his work with horses. As long as I can recall, (I've known Jim since 1998) he has had several dogs as his constant companions. Where he goes, his dogs go. He's had some pretty big Dobermans and at one point, I was a little concerned about how they might act with both adults and children. Jim told me it all depends on how you train them. His Dobermans have been on my farm (Noble Champion Sport Horses, Inc.) since 2001. It's amazing how gentle they are and how they are constantly around children and never once have I had a concern. Jim often sits with the pets of his friends and relatives and loves the job. People trust Jim. He follows instructions to a tee. With Jim, a pets health and well being come first. Jim was hospitalized last year and for the first time in ages, he was away from his pets. That's all he could talk about until he came home. He told me later how good it was to see his dogs and how "it's funny how the simplest things in life give you the most pleasure." That's a pet lover. Anyone would do well to hire Jim to sit with their pets and could rest assured that their pet would be given the best of care and would be in the best company.
