James has been to our home multiple times. He watches our dog Coco and takes her on rides which she loves. He offers to do anything we need. He even stamped and mailed payroll checks for me:) I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Jim and Gail - a lovely couple......
Jim and Gail came to look after our animals (dogs, cats and chickens) and our home in Spain at the end of September for about a week. They were incredibly friendly and we had many evenings when we were together having lots of interesting chats. They have a wonderful zest for life and are constantly trying to seek out and learn about new places. Just give Gail a nice place to sit and read or to do some work on her laptop, and Jim a bike with basic directions, and they're good to go! It was great to meet them both, and they have kindly invited us to visit them in Maine one day. I hope we get the chance to take them up on their offer. Thanks Jim and Gail.
