About Jim And Janie Byrnes:

Hello, we are Jim and Janie, parents, grandparents and transitioning retirees. Jim spent 26 years serving in the United States Air Force and Janie spent 35 years in the Real Estate Title Insurance business. As Jim works toward a second retirement in 18 months, we are preparing to serve in a different way during this time in our life. We understand the importance of people's property and their 4-legged family members. We want to be the ones you can rely on to take care of what's most precious to you. We want to give you peace of mind that your pets and property are going to be cared for as if it was our own. We enjoy the "Nomad" lifestyle we lived during our time in service to the United States of America, so we look forward to being able to do it again. What we want most is to make new friends, grow our relationships with the "furry" friends we meet along the way and enjoy retirement.

Our lives have been built upon new journeys, making new friends and taking care of people. We have always enjoyed the fact that we can help someone by taking care of their pets or their home when they need it most. We are detail oriented and organized and feel like this is a perfect match for you and for us. We have extensive experience taking care of our pets and have been successful maintaining a happy home for them.

We have taken care of friends dogs, cats, fish, birds and even guinea pigs. My wife, Janie,  ran her own pet sitting business during one of our assignments in the military. We love animals and enjoy taking care of them. Our current neighbors have asked us to watch their house and their Golden Retriever on several occasions. Our friends and family will often ask us to watch their house while they're away traveling for work or pleasure.

We had the pleasure of meeting Jim and Janie couple of weeks before the sit and we immediately felt comfortable having them watch our pups. Jim sent us daily pictures and updates and we arrived home to happy pups who were taken on walks and played with every day. In addition, our home was super clean upon arrival. We would highly recommend Jim and Janie to anyone in need of a pet sitting.

Jim & Janie looked after Brandy’s pets & home

Jim is great with animals! He has watched and cared for our last 3 pets and watches over our home while we travel. We 100% trust him with our babies and belongings and highly recommend him. Our dogs over the last 15 years have all taken to him immediately and I love that he will get down on the ground and play with them. Now that my husband and I are empty-nesters and will be traveling much more it's comforting knowing our little
Miniature Schnauzer and our home are in excellent hands.

We have had Jim and his wife, watch our pets and home many times in the past. They have always done an excellent job, leaving the house spotless, sometimes even cleaner than when we left. Knowing that our pets are very well cared for when we have been gone allows us to enjoy ourselves even more. Jim has always been right on time, very dependable and goes above, and beyond what is expected of him.

I have known Jim for several years as a friend and neighbor. He has cared for our dog several times while we were away. I consider him to be very reliable and trustworthy. I would certainly call on him again to watch our dog and/or our house the next time we are away.

I have known Jim and Janie for the last 18 years. They watched over my home and pets more times than I could count. During all my travels, it was refreshing knowing they were at the house, taking care of anything I needed. I have the upmost trust and respect for them both. They are my #1 go-to team when I need to depend on someone to take care of my home. I highly recommend Jim and Janie!
