Pet care experience

Mature, loving and ready to help!

Hi, you can call me Jackie. I’ve been a pet owner and lover all my life. I’d love to care for your furry family members and put your mind at ease when you are gone. I’ve cared for my family and friend’s pets numerous times and I’m excited to care for your animals as well! I’m mature, conscientious and loving. I am even available for overnight stays to ensure they get lots of loves and cuddles and to protect your property while you vacation. I do not offer dog walking due to a bad experience with my own dog getting attacked. However I am happy to walk your dog during overnight stays once we've had a chance to learn the neighborhood and the safe areas. I have a soft spot for senior pets. It breaks my heart that so many senior pets are available for adoption. I believe all pets deserve extra love and pampering in their golden years. As I age, I believe this because it’s what I would want. My background is in helping people and saving lives. I have been a crime victim advocate and then an evacuation manager for an international insurance company. I am cool as a cucumber in a crisis due to my training in crisis management. Rest assured that if anything should go wrong with your pet or your home, I can handle it calmly and responsibly. I look forward to meeting you and your pets someday soon!

I cannot say enough about how wonderful and caring Jackie is. My mom has Alzheimer's and Jackie comes every day to care for her cat, Sophie. Not only is she an amazing and reliable pet caregiver, but she goes above and beyond what is needed or expected. She is super patient with my mom and even helpful to her when needed. She truly cares about her clients (both humans and pets). Jackie is great at communicating with you about your pet and has fantastic suggestions to make things easier, if needed. I would highly recommend Jackie to anyone who is looking for a caring, trustworthy and truly amazing care giver for their pet.

We cannot thank you enough for taking such wonderful (24/7) care of our Jasper. I know this time there were a few hiccups, but you kept me in the loop the entire time. You also handled everything like a pro. Because you are. Jasper is becoming most comfortable around you, which makes me happy. I know he can be a sour patch kid or should I say, cat, but deep down he’s a very loving old man just with a grumpy face💙

You take such great care of Jasper. You always meet him wherever he’s comfortable. Despite his grumpy, inhaler disliking face, lol, I’m sure you know by now that he ❤️’s you. He’s a big ole cuddle bug when he wants to be.

Jackie was so wonderful and professional and my pets loved her. I will recommend her to Nyome and use her again for keeping my pets safe and loved when needed.

Jackie did a great job watching our two senior cats while we were out of the country. She was very patient with our special needs boy and communicated daily to let us know how things were going. Definitely would recommend.

I am retired and have availability all day for cat and small dog care. I lost my senior cats 2 years ago. I am filling that hole in my heart by fostering and providing cat and small dog care in the Greater Baltimore area .

I want to know everything about your pet, not just where the food and litter box are at. What is their personality? What’s a normal day like for them? I want to avoid any disruption to their routine since they’ll of course be missing you. What is their favorite thing? What do they hate? I want to understand WHO your pet is so that I can cater to their own unique personality and spoil them rotten.
