Dog, Cat and lint brush friendly..

Pet care experience

A native Californian raised in Venice. I was brought up in a "dog house" . We never had anything less than 3 dogs and 3 cats as I was growing up. I have raised great "mutts" and pure breeds alike. Everything from Brazilian Mastiffs (Fila's), German Shepherd's , Australian Shepherd's , and Husky mixes to name a few. I rarely meet an animal that doesn't like me- (occasionally but not often). I am currently living in a place that doesn't allow pets so I now get my "animal fix" and help care for other people's furry family members.

Jim the the absolute best you could ever hope for and want in a pet sitter. He genuinely loved and cared for my little girl when I was away on business. He was very communicative and thoughtful with photos and text updates throughout my trip. My little one is quite high maintenance and Jim went above and beyond by brushing her out daily and even taking her to the groomers right before I arrived home so she was perfect for me. I would highly recommend Jim to anyone who is looking for a responsible and loving pet sitter.

I have known James for over ten years. His care and treatment of my dogs has been an invaluable service to me many times. I highly recommend him and if my dogs could speak they would too! Thank you James!

Information Jim S. would like to know about your pet

No preferences as far as breed goes. High strung dogs (in my experience) just need a chance to get acclimated to a new person. In these cases, I prefer to meet the pooch first and see if we are a good fit. Generally it works out.

A typical day

Anything that the dog requires-I love to hike in my local mountains, but a walk around the neighborhood is just as great for the little dogs. Some just need a person to snuggle up to, which is always a bonus!
