Firm and caring dog trainer, walker
Pet care experience
I am very proficient with keeping up an owner's training protocols when caring for their dog(s). I love dogs and have trained both small and big dogs, including an Akita from a few weeks old. I offer the option for jogging/running in addition to walking, because I recognize that certain dogs need a more intense exercise regimen and that's very hard to get in San Jose's city environment. I am very responsible and you can trust your dog is well taken care of with me.
Reviews
Rachael and James did an outstanding job caring for Kato and Katrina during our vacation. They are great caregivers with whom we trusted our kids well-being with while we were gone. Thank you from Pete; Glenda; KATO; KATRINA
A down-to-earth couple who took great care of my Shar-Pei! They went the extra mile to keep me updated the whole week I was on my trip. Definitely going to use them in the future!
Rachael has walked my three dogs many times. They are always happy to see her and it's easy to tell she loves dogs. She is punctual, responsible, and consistent. I would recommend her to a friend. James has filled in for her a couple times and he is very good with dogs as well.
James is great with our three dogs. We paid a lot of money on training our dogs, and I gave James specific instructions on what to do and when, and he followed those instructions perfectly. He also watched our dogs for several days while we were at a conference, and I knew that I left my fur-babies in good hands. I highly recommend James for all of your dog needs.

Information Rachael S. and James G. would like to know about your pet
Is there any specific training protocol that you would need me to keep up with; specific commands and bad habits to break to be aware of to be consistent with your needs. Health issues I should be made aware of, any medication or supplement regimen, and feeding specifications. I would like to know the dogs disposition, how they around new people, and how are they around new dogs (when walking).
A typical day
I'll make sure to give your dog lots of attention and belly rubs, since I know how they can be sad when their owner is away. Your dog will enjoy one walk a night and if you have a backyard I can supervise play (throw a ball, tug-a-war and play around with them a bit). I am open to special requests for how best to meet your dogs needs and will tailor my plans to suit your dog.
