Experienced. Caring. Adaptable.

Pet care experience

I treat clients' homes and family members with utmost care and respect, and I love on my pet clients like they are my own. I have nearly a decade of professional sitting experience at all stages of the life cycle, from bottle feeding to end-of-life support. My availability opened up when my beloved cat, Hugo, passed in December 2025. He was my special big boy and my joy; I miss him every day! During the last year of his life, I managed his multiple major health conditions including diabetes, kidney failure, and congestive heart failure. He had chronic urinary issues for his entire life despite prescription diets and various intervention attempts, and thus I was always on the lookout for signs of UTI. My boy was anxious and became notorious at multiple veterinary clinics for getting agitated during his checkups. I am eternally grateful to every person who showed him love and gentleness when his behavior was challenging. I strive to show the same loving care to my clients with the promise that even "difficult" pets will be treated like my absolute favorite creature on earth. Depending on the level of care required, I am comfortable with meeting in person or virtually before the sit. My ability to give medication will vary by the relationship and administration method. I typically ask that I perform an on-site home visit before the sit with any pets needing insulin injections, oral (both pill and liquid) medications, or subcutaneous fluid.

Jeem is absolutely the best caretaker for our senior labradoodle and our goldfish. They are timely, organized, and wonderful at communication. It's very convenient for us to contact Jeem and get plans set in motion right away, even at the last minute. Highly, highly recommend Jeem to take care of your pets!

James frequently cases for my 2 cats and high energy dog. My dog loves James so much and gets so excited when he sees James. Whenever I return all of the pets are well cared for and very happy.

James is meticulous in carrying out instructions and so kind and engaging to animals in their charge. My dog adores them, and my cats accept them (they aren’t very sociable cats). I recommend them without reservation.

My go-to pet sitter! Communicative and kind, I know that my kitties are well cared for when I am out of town. I appreciate that even my anxious and timid kitty that hides is given the same love and attention as my outgoing and cuddly baby. I highly recommend!
