Love for animals, love for dogs??

Pet care experience

I have always had a love for animals, mainly dogs. Since before I can remember I have always wanted a dog. Not sure what got me into them and then at six years old, I got a chocolate lab as puppy and was a big part of my life growning up. We played alot together, such as fetch at the lake and a lot in the snow.After twelve years our time had ended and since then I have been dog sitting for family and friends and it wouldnt take me long for the pups to get to know me, even if they did start out a little territorial. Throughout the years i have learned to understand dogs share alot of the same emotions as humans do. They cannot always comprehend the way people do thus patience is key and they will eventually love you for it. I have also been know to spoil them with love and attention and have yet to find a dog who resists either. As for my availability i am flexible for the most part, feel free to contact me if you have any questions, I am really excited about the opportunity and hope to talk to you soon. Hope all is well.

Jimmy took excellent care of our 16yr old dog. She quickly came up to us when we arrived home. This has always been a sign that she has had loving and compassionate care. Jimmy is very responsible, thorough, kind and honest. The house was in great condition too.

Jimmy has watched my four dogs several times over the years. He came over before to meet the dogs so they would get used to him before he was alone with them. He kept us updated while we were on vacation and kept the dogs happy! It had been hard to leave our dogs before but we were thankful to have someone like Jimmy when we needed him!

I have know James for over six years. He is an honest, trustworthy, hardworking young man. He and I worked at the same school for a few years. He was very well liked and respected at our school. I have two small dogs (pugs) and I would most definitely trust James to take care of my beloved dogs. I also know two families that had James take care of their animals in the past. And all parties were very happy. I also know that he absolutely loves animals and from what I hear they love him too.
