Dog Mom Extraordinaire 🐾😊

I’ve been a lover of all animals for as long as I can remember - dogs especially! I’m comfortable with any breed or size of dog, and I’ll be sure to treat your special furbabies as well as you do! I live in a house with a large fenced yard, just minutes away from the beach where I love to take dogs for a run in the sand (I’ll make sure to give their paws a good wipe after 😉). I am currently working full time (Mon-Fri 9-5), however, I live with my retired mother who is home all the time, so your furbabies will never be left alone! That being said, I have two pups of my own at home who can be very anxious and barky upon meeting new people and dogs. For that reason, only mega-chill dogs are suitable for boarding or doggy day care in my home. Walks, house-sits, and drop-ins are my specialty. I was a full-time walker before starting my current job, so I am always happy to take your pups out for you while you are having a long day away (or whatever the case may be). I’m a responsible pet owner who will make sure there’s no misbehaving while also keeping your pets happy and comfortable (my experience volunteering at the SPCA has helped with this). Give me a shout! :)

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced yard for dogs to run around in with no concern of escape. I also have two dogs of my own that are under two years old. They can be anxious at first but once acquainted with your dog, they’ll play all day.

Jamie does a fantastic job. She took great care of our boy! We have used Jamie on multiple occasions now for periods of a week to 10 days and she is fantastic. We thank you again and Frank thanks you for all the attention.

My dog was well cared for. She’s a bit anxious and needy and Jamie managed her fine.

First time using Jamie was a good experience. She kept our happy fury boys safe. One of our dogs needs his medication exactly as directed due to kidney and liver disease, so reliability is paramount. Overall we were very happy. Thanks Jamie!

Jamie proved reliable and did a good job looking after our 3 fur babies while we were away. There was a small crisis when one of our cats escaped that Jamie handled capably and everything worked out well (cats were secured and safe). My partner and I felt comfortable with our animals under her care. Thank you, Jamie, for your service. 🙂

Jamie was a tremendous help when I found myself in a unique situation that seemed to be confusing for some pet-sitters. Jamie was open-minded, willing to accommodate (booked drop-ins only for several weeks), compassionate, took excellent care of my cats & home, always responded to messages quickly, followed instructions, and overall just very easy to work with. I will definitely book Jamie again, the cats also grew really fond of her & hope to see her again soon!

The most important thing for me to know about your furbaby is how he or she gets along with other dogs. I have two pups of my own so it is important that they are able to co-exist. Mine can be quite barky upon first encounters, but they will play all day once they get to know your dog.
