Jim walked our terrier mix for around 10 years. He genuinely cared immensely for Minnie and she always perked up when Jim arrived for the daily walk (she doesn't take kindly to most adults). Jim always gave value-added advice on medical issues and I thoroughly enjoyed our chats. A real salt of the earth guy read more

Jim is a true animal lover. He walked my dog Simon for several years and also managed to befriend my two cats. I wouldn't hesitate to trust him with my pets. read more

Bosley's Dog Walking is AMAZING! Jim has been helping me with my pups for over 8 years and each one of my dogs LOVES him! They are so excited to see him and run to the door when he arrives. He is super sweet with the little ones and while on walks or at the park - he will send me pics of them playing. He is always prompt, always friendly, and always takes care of my dogs like they are his very own! I trust him with my little ones everyday! I highly recommend Jim and Bosley's Dog Walking!! Thanks so much! read more

Jim takes such great care of us! Jim sends pictures to our human so she knows how we're doing while she's away. He knows so much about kitties and how to take care of them we almost didn't even miss our human! -Bob & Linda Really though, I had never used a petsitter before and was really nervous about leaving two new kitties with digestive issues for a whole month. Jim was super knowledgable, and even recommended a new vet that's turned out to be really helpful with their ailments! Jim is really flexible but really just made me feel so easy about the whole process. Can't speak highly enough of him! read more

Bosley's Dog Walking & Cat Sitting - Jim took such good care of us while our human was away. Great with dogs but also cats too!! - Dog Walkers Near Me - Imperial Beach, California

Jim worked with myself and my dogs for over three years and I have nothing but wonderful things to day. His prices are reasonable, he is responsive and flexible, he talks the dogs out for long periods, he truly loves the dogs and I trust him completely. During the past six months, my westie has been ill--cancer--and not only was I totally comfortable with Jim taking him out and monitoring his progress despite the illness but Jim also helped me by administering Chester's medications when dropping him back off. I am so thankful that I had such a reliable person watching out for my dog during this time. I highly recommend his services. I do see a review that mentions they had a high-energy dog that developed bad habits under Jim. My dog would also be described as high energy but I never experienced any issues like this or noticed any changes in behavior. read more

Jim has a wonderful way with animals! He has helped with my dogs, and is always considerate and generous with his time. I felt that Pistolet was in safe hands..... One can't put a price on peace of mind.... Thanks again, Jim! read more

Jim has been taking care of our dog for over two years now. Super friendly, flexible, and reliable. Posts frequent updates to social media so you can watch your dog having fun while you are at work! Our dog was unfriendly towards other dogs and untrusting of strangers when we adopted him, and now he loves to play at the park and gets excited at the sound of Jim coming up our steps. You couldn't ask for anyone better to look after your pup! read more

Jim is wonderful! I highly recommend him and trust him completely with my two dogs. We have been using Jim to walk our two dogs since December 2013. Our dogs love him, and he always drops them off tired and happy. Jim always emails a picture of the dogs playing at the park- which is great! I get to see my dogs in action and all of the friends they are making. Jim is very reliable, highly knowledgeable, and super flexible. He always accommodates last minute requests when our schedules change and he has even helped us out on the occasional weekend. read more

Mr. Bosley is fantastic! We have an Afghan Hound who is very overweight, and we cannot take him on long walks as we used to. My husband has Dementia/Parkinson's, and I am recovering from a broken ankle. We found Jim on NextDoor S.F. and he came over to meet Scotty. We asked Jim to walk him everyday, and Jim walks him for at least 3 hrs. with his pack. Jim showed up regularly as large as life even when we had the heat wave this past June! He has been walking Scotty for about a month now, and Scotty has lost 10 pounds so far, and he's not even running or playing. He just follows Jim around the dog parks. Scotty gets along with the other dogs fine, but he will not initiate play..yet! read more

Jim is one of the best walkers I've ever had and I couldn't recommend him enough. My beagle comes home so happy and pooped everyday :) Jim is very honest and reliable and has such a great relationship with the dogs he walks. Jim spends hours a day with each dog making Bosleys Dog Walking such a bargain! He even shares photos and videos of the dogs playing together during the day. read more

Jim is awesome. I am a very concerned dog mom of two and Jim made sure I felt comfortable as much as the dogs. He came a few days before to meet them. Tomorrow is our third day with Jim and my dogs are getting more and more comfortable. Jim will send pictures and videos throughout the day which makes me feel at ease. Thank you Jim ! read more

It's been about four years since Jim started taking our dog Pogeen out, and we couldn't be happier with him. Pogeen loves Jim and the dog pack that she goes out with, and my husband and I are so impressed with the way he handles them and their various personalities and temperaments. read more

Jim is a gem! He takes our dog Miles to the park while we work, and our pupper has never been so tired and happy. Jim is super responsive, and genuinely loves his crew of animals. We are so happy we found him! read more

JIm has been wonderful with my somewhat crazy queensland mix. She was a rescue at 8 months and had already learned some bad habits. I used to cry trying to walk her. As a friend commented, she was like "walking a marlin." I don't know if it's having a pack of fellow dog park attendees, getting worn out from playing ball, or just being whispered to by a guy with special dog rapport but she is a different dog now. She is still somewhat challenging on a leash, but what a change! I can't recommend Jim and Bosley's Dog Walking enough! read more

Jim takes care of our persian cate when we are away for the weekend. He is really reliable and even sends us pictures of our cat so we know he stopped by and everything is fine. He is always available, even on short notice and we are really glad to have him as our cat sitter! read more

There is no denying that Jim is a super nice guy - who is flexible with scheduling and trustworthy - but we must warn others that he is not a trained dog-handler and should not be relied upon to instill good manners in your canine companions. At the beginning of the year Jim dropped us as a client, with literally no advance notice, because he lost the ability to control our dog. While we hate to write a negative review, Jim definitely could have handled the situation much more professionally. Our dog is a young, large and exuberant pup who apparently stopped listening to Jim's commands and started playing a game of "chase" when it came time to round up and leave the dog park - this became a daily occurrence. We understand the importance of voice control and safety issues associated with that, and recognize that this was not a sustainable situation. What's important to note, though, is that our dog only learned this with Jim. He also learned other bad habits under Jim's watch - for example, needing to be lifted into the car (he's 100 pounds!). If you have a dog with similar characteristics (e.g. young, impressionable, high energy) you may want to consider a walker with more training experience so that your dog doesn't regress and learn bad habits. This is the route we took with our new dog-walking service and our dog's behavior has drastically improved, with none of the previous issues. read more

For over a year we trusted Jim with our high-energy Vizsla puppy and we had nothing but good experiences with him! We are so thankful for Jim, he was amazing to us and Pancho. He was always flexible with schedules and last minute changes, extremely reliable, always responded promptly, and of course very kind and friendly. Pancho would come home in the late afternoons happy, healthy and tired!! We are hoping Jim will be able to begin a morning group walk sometime soon so Pancho can see him and his friends again!! Thanks for everything Jim! read more

Jim has been walking our dog for over 18 months. We have a senior dog who is very arthritic, but still loves to hang out with Jim and pack. From the beginning Jim has been thoughtful and watchful about his needs. He's gone way beyond the call of duty in ensuring a routine has been maintained, even when we've been out of town. He even takes time to say "hi" to one of our cats who watches out for his arrival. I would highly recommend Jim and Bosley's Dog Walking service. read more

James of Mr Bosley's Dog Walking is my go-to person when I need to refer people to a great dog care provider in the neighborhood! He absolutely loves dogs (and cats, chickens, turtles) and puts his heart and experience into making sure they get the absolute best care possible, be it a calm walk around the area, or a lively romp in the dog park! He only sees dogs individually or in small groups, so you know your pup will get lots of attention and that James' focus will be on making sure your pet is safe and well-looked after. Dogs seem to naturally adore him, and it is apparent that the feelings are mutual! read more
