Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet’s next favorite person💛
Hi!😊 I’m a Rochester Hills pet caregiver with 12 years of hands-on experience (off & on Rover combined!) caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities and routines. Prior to finishing my degree at Oakland University and entering the corporate world, I was a full time nanny/pet sitter so caregiving is truly in my DNA and something I truly love and am passionate about! I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you genuinely trust, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, attentive and big on communication, so you can expect regular updates, photos and peace of mind while you’re away. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks and playtime to slower-paced senior care, feeding routines, medications and lots of companionship. I also understand that every pet is different. Some want constant attention and cuddles, while others need a little time and space to warm up. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and tailor their care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I offer dog walking, drop-ins and at your house sitting for cats & dogs, as well as 1:1 house sitting in my home for one small-medium dog (40lbs & under) with me doing both pickup and drop off. Please feel free to reach out with any additional questions- I look forward to connecting with you!🙂

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Jamie cared for our two precious Cavaliers for a week. She did a great job. Kept us informed with pics and videos. She responded to our texts promptly. She cared for our home better than we do. I would recommend her without any hesitation.
Jamie was great... this was the first time in a long time that he greeted us like we weren't even gone for long time.
Jamie was a great sitter. Our dog is a nervous nelly but was well taken care of. Fantastic job!!!
Working with Jamie was great! She was an excellent communicator, arrived when she was expected, sent photos and my pups seemed happy!

Schedule
I was recently laid off and I’m pursuing caregiving full time, so my schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day for walks, drop-ins and overnight stays. I can tailor my availability around your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime and companionship. My goal is to make their day feel as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow the routines and instructions you provide as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, potty breaks and any household guidelines. I’m careful with doors, leashes and surroundings, and I pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite or energy. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet and home are being well cared for.
A typical day
Every pet has their own version of a perfect day! I like to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible, whether that means neighborhood walks, playtime, backyard breaks, meals, medication, enrichment or plenty of couch cuddles. For higher-energy dogs, I’m happy to spend more time walking and playing. For seniors or homebodies, I’m equally happy keeping things relaxed and giving them lots of companionship. I follow your lead and your pet’s personality rather than using a one-size-fits-all routine.

- Tell me anything that helps me understand your pet! I’d love to know about their normal routine, personality, favorite activities, feeding schedule, medications and any quirks or triggers. Please also let me know how they do with other animals and people, any leash reactivity or escape tendencies, separation anxiety, medical needs, or anything else that could affect their care. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make their experience safe, comfortable and stress-free.
