Jimmy has taken care of my dogs (who are rescues and a little quirky) on several occasions. In one instance I was having many guests over and asked Jimmy to take my dog for the evening. When I called and said guests were gone and dog could come home, he said she was sleeping and he would keep her overnight and he sent pics of her in his bed sound asleep! The dogs LOVE him and Jimmy loves them back. He has had cats forever and he has provided them with love and care. His current cat is about 18 years old and he has taken extra measures to make sure his medical needs are met. Jimmy made friends with a squirrel who used to sit on his shoulder (incredible). I think animals know when someone is trustworthy. He is kind and responsible and I thoroughly recommend him.
