Information Jaime K. would like to know about your pet

Caring for special needs dogs requires patience, experience, and a genuine love for animals. I understand that every dog has unique physical, medical, and emotional needs, and I tailor my care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is a senior, recovering from surgery, has mobility challenges, vision or hearing impairments, anxiety, or requires daily medications, I provide attentive, compassionate care every step of the way. I’m experienced with administering oral medications, eye drops, topical treatments, and following detailed care instructions to ensure your pet’s routine remains consistent. I monitor for any changes in appetite, energy level, mobility, or behavior and communicate regular updates, photos, and videos so you can have peace of mind. Walks and activities are always adjusted to your dog’s abilities, with plenty of rest, enrichment, gentle exercise, and, of course, lots of love and cuddles. My goal is to make every special needs dog feel secure, comfortable, and happy in a calm, stress-free environment. I care for every pet as if they were one of my own, giving them the patience, dignity, and personalized attention they deserve.

A typical day

I love turning every walk into an adventure! With other people’s dogs, I organize mini scavenger hunts in the park, hiding treats under leaves or tossing a frisbee for epic fetch sessions. We practice fun tricks like ‘spin,’ ‘high-five,’ or ‘roll over,’ followed by plenty of belly rubs and praise. Nothing beats watching a pup light up with zoomies after a good game of tug-of-war.

Your pets happiness is my happiness

Pet care experience

Animals are my life and I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. Seeing an animal happy and well cared for is one of my greatest achievements. I have adhered to strict feeding schedules, performed light grooming responsibilities, and am capable of administering medication as needed. You will return with a happy pet and a clean home free of any pet messes. Exercise is an important part of your pet's long term happiness and health, so I provide leashed walks, and play dates at various locations such as the beach, nature preserves, and parks. Friends and family have always relied on me to feed, walk, bathe, and entertain their fur babies.

I have been around Dogs and Cats my entire life. Jaime is the most dedicated, Responsible, caring , attentive, and Loving Pet care Specialist I have EVER KNOWN. My Sugar and Shelby found it hard to come home once they spend a day with Jaime. They Adore her ... and wait for any chance they get to walk, spend the night, or go a day excursion. It takes someone special to be it all, and Jaime was blessed with a Gift for and with animals. She is 5 star to us all who are lucky enought to have her in our lives.

Jaime loves dogs. She is caring, trustworthy, punctual, and professional. She has cared for two of my dogs and I would highly recommend her services. She customizes care to the individual needs of the animal . Love her!

I moved to a condo community from living in a home with family! I’m now retired and have an empty nest. That being said, I was in need of someone to look after my dog. Jaime takes care of several dogs in the community. She watches my dog while I work and I couldn’t have picked someone to love my dog as much as she does! He loves her! She takes him for bike rides also to the beach with other dogs for socialization. She’s got the biggest heart and loves animals. There’s no one else I trust.
