Not a lot of walkers are familiar with prong collars but thankfully Jim is and it helped build my confidence with him walking Clifford since were training him with that collar. Super professional and nice always on time. Highly recommend Jim & Sheri.

As a fellow pet sitter, with close to 40 years experience, I met Jim White at a "Pet Sitters International" meeting 20 years ago. I admire Jim's work ethics, organizational skills and dependability. He has a gentle spirit with insight to care for the needs of his clients and their pets. Through his knowledge of responsible pet care and pet training he can be assertive in a positive and kind manner with both his clients and the pets in his care. Jim would, absolutely, be an asset to your business. Wishing you success.

We had the pleasure of working with Jim for many years in Florida as he visited our home to care for many of our much loved dogs. He was personally recommended by a friend and it became very clear why as we observed how worked. In addition to being knowledgeable regarding veterinary issues he was always very professional. He let us know what he was doing at all times, logging visits and bringing our awareness to any issues with the dogs that he noticed. His attitude was great and we trusted him in our home regardless of whether we were in town or not. Jim is a caring friend to animals and a trustworthy person.
