For the Precious Paws in Your Life!

I'm a massive animal lover, but especially dogs and cats. My family always had multiple cats while I was growing up and we often visited many friends with dogs and cats. I've taken care of the pets of many family and friends as an older teenager and as an adult. I'm currently the regular walker for a goofy male Aussie Shepard and separately an extremely energetic female Aussie Shepard puppy.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe pets are precious and are members of your family who should be treated as such. I understand well the needs of cats and dogs, and the attention, exercise, and nourishment they require.

Jamie was wonderful with our special needs cat. He was conscientious, thorough, thoughtful and left our home in an impeccable condition. Our cat has some anxiety issues and doesn’t do well with new people, but Jamie had our cat sitting on his lap and purring in no time. We will certainly have him back! Thank you Jamie.

Jamie has watched our pets a few times and we always feel at ease knowing he is watching over our house and pets. He is communicative, caring and responsible. We have always come back to a well cared for home, and well loved pets.

Jamie continues to be a fantastic resource for us. He is communicative, and willing to work with our special needs dog. I feel so grateful to have him looking after our pets and house while we are away. So nice to come back to a house of relaxed and happy pets.

Jamie was wonderful! Out two furry brothers can be stand offish after their feral start in life, but the warmed right up to Jamie. He had them sitting with him in. O time. He was a kind and conscientious cat sitter whom we would love to have back! Thank you Jamie 🙏

Jamie had a great communication during our entire time away. We felt our pup was well cared for and would trust him in our home again.

Jamie took great care of our animals, they were happy and the house was left neat and tidy. He was also very easy and pleasant to interact with. I could have used a few more update pictures while we were away, but I am also very nervous to leave the pets so could be a bit needy this way 🙂
