I'll play hard--rain or shine!

Pet care experience

I was born with a hyper Dalmatian puppy in the house and I've thrived around dogs ever since. At holiday events with lots of dogs from the rest of my family, I'm usually the one left with the dogs to play with them and wear them out because I need to play just as much as they do. I also know how to keep large, energetic dogs from causing harm to other people and animals because of my experience with my parents' 80-pound Weimaraner, Rudy. He's hyper and loving and wouldn't hurt a soul, but he is very intimidating because of his size. Additionally, I have experience taking care of dogs who have special medical needs, as I helped on greyhound recover from an abusive home and another greyhound recover from a leg amputation. In general, I love to walk and am happy to walk for miles if desired. I also have experience walking two dogs at once if that's needed. I hope to meet your doggie friends soon!

Our dog Sandy seemed to enjoy being with Jamie!! Jamie was pleasant, sent texts and pictures during Sandy’s weekend with him...was prompt in answering any texts I sent...would recommend Sandy to others looking to use River in the Richmond area

Jamie is one of the first people I go to when I need someone to care for my dog. They are always responsible, send updates as often as I ask, and know how to handle any emergency situations well. Dogs can tell that Jamie is a kind and loving person!

Are there any places they don't like to be pet? Do they play rough? Do they show aggression on leashes?

A typical day

We would walk and go to the dog park most often, but I'm also happy to take dogs for rides in my Jeep and go out on some hiking trails if that'd be of interest. I do that with my parents' dog all the time!
