Animals are my children

Pet care experience

I grew to love all life especially animals after I returned from Viet Nam. I have had numerous cats and dogs through the years all of witch were rescues. I take care of several friends and relatives animals when they are out of town. I slept on the floor next to one of my cats the night he died. I think I would be a perfect match for anyone out there. I am a retired police officer and rural homicide detective I am in pretty good shape for being 75 years old I have no children of my own therefore my pets are my children I believe the perfect job would be taking care of fur balls and I do not mind cleaning up a mess. Sincerely, Larry G. James

Larry was an awesome sitter for our 4 (yes, 4!) dogs! He took care of them with compassion, was very respectful, and is very knowledgeable when it comes to pet care. Five out of five stars, I would definitely recommend his services. I appreciate you, Larry!

Larry took great care of our furbabies. Lucy is a diabetic and Larry was awesome at giving her shots and medication. They were very well taken care of and happy while we were away. Its nice to know they are being well taken care of when you have to be gone.

I have known Larry James for 25 years and can honestly say that he is a wonderful person when it comes to taking care of Pets. He loves all animals and does a good job with them. He is very conscientious when it comes to taking care of them. All the animals I have seen him with adore him in return.

Larry loves all animals but especially dogs. He has taken care of my dog at my home and at his home. My dog is always happy to see him which I think is the best recommendation possible. He has also kept a friend’s dog for an extended visit.
