Safety, trust & environment

When I am boarding an animal I treat them as my own, I have a small back yard where we go out and enjoy the outdoors. My place is animal friendly and ready to have a guest come stay. When at someone's home, I respect their surroundings and make sure to pick up after myself and the animal I am sitting.

Information Jami M. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences. How the dog acts with other animals, such as do they interact with other animals or doesn't. How the dog behaves around humans.

A typical day

We would get up go outside for a quick bathroom break, have breakfast, then relax outside or go to the park for a while, come back my place hang out while I get some work done, then have some dinner and go out to another park or dog park and run around for a while then come back to my place and ready for bed. While at the park we would run, play ball and mingle with other animals if able to.

Never met an animal I didn't like

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals since I was little. My experience with animals spans over many types from dogs and cats to birds, reptiles, rodents, I even had a horse at one time. I have groomed both dogs and cats including trimming nails. I care for all animals as my own and give much love to each and everyone. I trained my own dogs when they were young. I had a cat that I inherited that wasn't a people person, after a few weeks working on her attitude, she became more loving. I am animal free right now, my previous animals have all passed, after that, I thought watching others animals would be rewarding. I feel I have a knack for understanding animals. I love taking animals out and about to parks, the cat we had was trained to go out on a leash, she loved to go to the pet store. I love all kinds of animals, hopefully you will let me get to know your animal

Jami was great with our pup Nova! She came over to do a meet and greet, which we appreciated and during the stay kept us updated with photos!

This was honestly one of the worst Rover experiences I’ve had. The sitter was hired specifically to clean and empty our rabbit’s and guinea pigs’ litter boxes and pens, but was unable to complete even basic tasks and spent most of the one-hour visit sitting in the chair, leaning in the doorway, and watching us do the work ourselves. Clear written instructions about cleaning steps were sent before the visit, but they were not followed. Our request for no outside shoes inside the house was also ignored, and the sitter also failed to lock the pet gate after leaving the room, which resulted in our rabbit getting out. The sitter claimed one litter box was completed, but that was actually the one my partner cleaned. We ended up having to stop the visit because it became obvious the job was not going to get done. Overall, this was a complete waste of time and money and an extremely frustrating experience. I would not recommend this sitter at all if you are expecting someone to actually complete the tasks they were hired to do.

Jamie has been very good with Kenai. She communicates while we are gone with text and pictures. Recommend her highly.
