Safety, trust & environment

My house is about 1,200 square feet with an open back yard (usually a place for outdoor pets to go to the bathroom). I frequently take dogs on walks around the neighborhood and know the area well enough for open areas to exercise pets in. I love taking pets to nearby parks or even outdoors time on the leash.

Information Jamie B. would like to know about your pet

Any pets that stay with me will only be with me as it would be chaotic with anymore animals (2 at most) that all do not know each other in the same house. Consider me for your next stay, walk, drop-in, or boarding!

A typical day

Spending time with either dogs or cats, I love to spoil either one with toys, treats, or any type of exercise that they would like to do (pending the personal handlers approval). I usually take dogs to the dog park if they are compatible with that type of environment, walks in my neighborhood, and general attention at home. I can send videos of daily activities and even video chat if needed for each pet. When I look after cats, I tend to give them their own space and let them come to me when / if they want. I love giving treats to cats (if the personal handler is okay with that). I love interacting with cats with toys that simulate a bird or mouse. I would love to get to know any new animal. I also do not mind meeting in person first!

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Jamie! she/her/they/them I love animals and have an affinity to showing respect to all forms of life. I currently live alone and can host up to 2 dogs or cats! The experience as a pet care representative is as follows: - Fear free pet shelter training (training to recognize fear and anxiety in animals and the methods to help mitigate such matters) - Over 30+ hours of one-on-one dog handling training with certified pet care specialists. - Thousands of hours of dog sitting for friends and family - Feral and non feral cat handling experience with habitual cat interactions in shelters, homes, and outdoors. - I have grooming and first aid experience with cats and dogs if their were to be an emergency as well!

Jamie is great! Super easy to communicate with, listened to all concerns we had and wasn't phased by any. She has a lovely calm energy, and Loki felt very at ease with her. They sent pictures and updates and responded quickly to any questions. Definitely recommend!

Jamie was amazing, kind and welcoming. Jamie's smile and personality made me feel comfortable and peaceful knowing thet would be in great hands. The picture updates and messages were sweet. Also, Jamie was so understanding and accommodating about my last minute flight change. I will only book with Jamie. 🥰
