Loving care when you can’t be there
Pet care experience
I have been caring for various pets since I was 7 years old including small rodents, lizards, snakes, birds, cats, dogs, & horses. I have worked at the zoo in the past, and I recently left a job as a dog trainer. I am currently working at a small animal/equine vet. I am comfortable accommodating for senior pets, giving medications, as well as caring for reactive or anxious dogs.
Reviews
Jamie did a great job with our Boston Terriers and she kept us up to date frequently. When my ‘finicky’ dog decided not to eat one day, Jamie communicated throughout day with me, we were able to discuss his sensitivities and ways to coax him, and he ate later. I appreciate her care of our puppies.
Jamie was wonderful with our dogs while we were visiting the Creation and Ark museum from out of town. She communicated with us before and during our dog's stay. She worked with our drop off and pick up hours, and took great care of our pets. We would absolutely use her again!
Very thankful to have found Jamie on here! She gave us lots of updates and videos! Made us feel comfortable knowing our girl was in good hands!
Jamie is absolutely fantastic. She’s loving and patient and extremely flexible. Our dog loves her dogs and her property and always comes back happy and exhausted. :)

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have an acre fenced in yard (4 foot welded wire fence). Dogs are crated and are let out to potty & play usually every 2-3 hours (and never longer than 7 hours, except at night). Dogs are always supervised when out in the fenced-in yard. I adhere to feeding schedules and provide fresh water.
Home
Information Jamie D. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know if the dog has had a history of good/bad interactions with dogs or humans so I know what to expect when they arrive. I would also like a list of any known allergies. I am also happy to watch intact male/female dogs, but would like to know ahead of time. (Intact males/females will never have free contact with each other, unless they are younger puppies & only with supervision.)
A typical day
My large fenced in yard provides lots of room to run & play. I am happy to play fetch & I provide toys for dogs to run around with. If I have multiple dogs, I am happy to introduce & supervise play between the dogs if they are friendly. For safety reasons, I only introduce dogs that seem eager to interact and play with the other dog. If they don’t like the company of other canines, that is okay too and I am happy to give them their own time out in the yard and I can be their playmate.

Availability
I had a baby in June & am currently staying home with her & the pups. My husband is also well versed in caring for dogs and helps out a lot. I try to send updates with pictures & videos every couples of days, but am happy to respond to more frequent requests.
