Description:

My Name is Jamie and I am a bona-fida dog lover. I have a small dog of my own and am looking to expand our pack soon. Until then, I am looking to help others with their dog needs.

I know that things pop up and it can be hard to find a dog watcher who will love your pooch as much as you do. I am always open and live in a great neighborhood for doggies. I live within walking distance to a dog park, treat store and play fields. With me, your dog will treated as if he where family.

About Jamie K.:

We are a fun loving small family of 4 in Columbia City, Seattle. We have a young daughter who just adores dogs and a small dog named Maggie who just loves sleeping. We are in a great neighborhood near parks, open spaces for running and animal emergency services are within walking distance.

We love dogs here and treat each pup as if he/she is our own. Thanks for taking an interest in us!

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

I have loved dogs for the better portion of my life. I was never allowed pets as a child so I grew up envying those who did have pups. I would beg to go to their houses just to play with their doggies. I vowed that when I was on my own as an adult, I would get my dream dog.

When I met my husband, I had to get his dogs approval on our 2nd date. Maggie is her name and she was very protective of my husband. Now that we are married, Maggie is with me at all times. She sleeps on my side of the bed, she follows me to the restroom and guards my door. I think I eventually got her approval.

I have dog sat several breeds and I loved all of them. We have so much fun playing outside, chilling on our porch in the sun or just playing tug-of-war on the carpet.

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

I would like to know if the dog is good around small children. I have a toddler aged daughter who adores dogs. She knows how to pet nice and no pulling on the dog but sometimes her love can be a little too much for skittish dogs.

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

Yes I do. I have a hatchback with fold down seats for all sorts of doggies.

Are you comfortable administering medication?

Any end, I'll get it in.

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

As much time as you require and needed by the dog.

If you have a backyard, please describe it.

We have a medium sized backyard with brushes instead of fencing. We live by many great parks so we usually take the dogs to the parks instead.

Where will my dog sleep?

Your dog will sleep wherever he is most comfortable to ease stress. We have several beds and blankets in the corners of our house. We also have our dog's "bedroom" which is a closet where our dog likes to sleep. She moved her favorite blankie and toys there. We have space for any size kennel as well.

Where will you take my dog on walks? Tell me about it.

Of course!! We will take the alley behind our house to either the park, dog park, treat store or even hop in the car and head towards some water. I always have water, food, treats, towels and compostable bags on hand as well.

Breed: Dachshund & Yorkshire Terrier

Maggie is a sweet and cuddly girl. She loves being apart of the family and will make sure she is involved in every activity. She loves to be on a lap or at least near her human at all times.

Maggie gets shy when her owners are away and will take to her kennel for a few hours before she opens up and decides to play or cuddle.

Jamie and her family went above and beyond taking care of Rusty. He had a medical emergency while we were gone and they took amazing care of him, staying in contact with us and our family. I can't thank them enough for the love and attention they gave him!

We left our dog with Jamie over Thanksgiving holiday> it was a last minute arrangement, and it all went really well. Rec'd especially for small to mid sized dogs>

This was our first time using Rover.com - Jamie and her family were fantastic. We didn't have any concerns at all leaving Rusty, and he seemed to have had a great time napping with their dog and watching raccoons out the window :)

Jamie and her family took wonderful care of our little Bubb. Jamie kept us posted with e-mails while we were on vacation, which was very reassuring. It's obvious that they care about dogs very much. Our Bubb has separation anxiety and was upset when we left him. Jamie put down her own baby so she could hold Bubb when he was distressed! And although they certainly did not have to, they let Bubb sleep in their bed with them. All small details, but lets me know that they care about our furry friends very much. Would definitely leave Bubb with Jamie and her family again. (Collapse)
