Pet care experience

Passionate ♥ Vet Tech ♥

I first began my journey by volunteering in shelter medicine, followed by volunteering at a veterinary clinic. During that time, I discovered my true passion and knew this was the path I wanted to pursue. I worked as a Veterinary Technician for 15 years before transitioning into pet sitting, where I now support pet owners in a more personal setting. ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ Many pets are not suitable for boarding at a facility or clinic due to FAS (Fear, Stress, Anxiety). To help with FAS, I offer happy visits. These visits take place as multiple times leading up to the visit so the pet(s) can become comfortable with me. ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Exotics ( ferrets, rabbits, hedgehogs, chinchillas, rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, bearded dragons, Turtles, and birds). I specialize in behavior, nutrition, geriatric care, and hospice care. I have been trained and educated in animal CPR, the Hiamelic Maneuver, First Aid, and emergencies during my career. I have a Sciences AS degree, Veterinary Assistant Certification, and Veterinary Technology AAS degree. Certifications: ♥ Small Animal Veterinary Assisting ♥ Level 3 Elite Fear Free Certified ♥Nutrition Pet Consultant ♥Nutritional Counselor ♥100+ hours of additional Veterinary Medicine Continued Education

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I work closely with owners to keep their pet’s routine as consistent as possible with their normal daily schedule, which helps reduce stress and anxiety. Providing peace of mind and ensuring owners feel confident that their pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away is always my top priority.

How are there not more stars to give?! 10/10. Extremely reliable. We had an emergency where our sitter wasn't able to come due to work complications(not their fault and they messaged asap, but couldn't make the overnight) . And at literally 9:30pm I messaged her frantic not knowing what to do and she went and stayed with our sweet boy for way more time than we could even hope for. And came back this morning to let him out and just love on him a bit. She truly cares for animals, not grossed out by smells: unfortunately, our dog had an accident in his crate. She cleaned him up, cleaned the crate and was able to replace bedding with others we had nearby. Truly caring for his health, environment and mental well being. Great communicator and absolutely will love your pet like her first born child. Cannot say enough good things about this sitter. Worth every penny!

Jamie was so flexible as our travel plans changed at least 7 times and were ultimately cancelled altogether. Instead she came and checked on our babies during the day while we were working extra long hours during a chaotic time at work!

11/10. Jaime was amazing with our dogs. She sent so many photos and updates we were able to relax knowing they were well taken care of. Great at communicating and overall exactly the kind of sitter we were looking for!

Helpful Information to Share: ❤️ Are they currently on medication or do they have medications that are occasionally needed? ♥ Any medical conditions I should be made aware of? ♥ Past history of fearfulness or aggressive behaviors? This will not discourage me from caring for them :) ♥ Are there any areas they prefer not to be touched (paws, mouth, ears, flank, etc.)? ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ ♥Have Veterinarian information and records on hand in case of emergency. ♥ Have an Emergency Contact or two in case I cannot reach you. ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌
