I screwed up my knee and a 1 year old lab needs exercise and James is the man for the job. James is very friendly and my dog, Ranger, loves him.
No matter the weather and in Monument we all know how fast that can change, James is always on time and gives my lab a good walk, fetch and run. I am very thankful James is not bothered by the ever changing weather and seems to take joy in his time with the dog.
I highly recommend James for the job and so does Ranger. lol
Price is very reasonable can’t say enough good things about him and will continue to use his services til i get through months of rehab.
Below is Ranger after his play time with James. 🐾🐾🐾🐾❤️❤️❤️❤️

Very professional and kind. Responded every day I was away with pics and explanations. Will definitely hire him again if I need to travel. My kitties are not social but he was able to get a quick pic before they found their hiding spots. TY James.
