Life Long Pet Lover and Rescuer

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Jamie and I am a life-long animal lover and animal rescue advocate! I moved out to Corbin, KY last year from San Diego, CA. I am available for pet sitting in my home or at your home but I will not stay overnight at your home as I am a single mom with a 2yr old daughter. I will travel 20-30 miles from Corbin. If petsitting in my home, I have a dog and cat. So your pet must be pet and kid friendly. About Me! Total Dog Lover Existing Pet Sitting Business for over 15 years Realtor Work from home so pets get a lot of 1 on 1 time I have worked as a pet sitter, veterinary assistant, dog walker, kennel attendant and customer service rep at multiple boarding facilities within san diego county. I am a founder of a local dog rescue here in Corbin called BARX Rescue Squad and Resource Center. I have also volunteered at many local animal shelters & non-profits including Helen Woodward Animal Center, Rancho Coastal Humane Society, Camp Pendleton Animal Shelter and various county shelters & private rescues.This last year I have also completed a few courses in animal behavior & animal psychology as well. My experience administering medication: I have given medicine to our pets throughout the years for a number of things after receiving instructions from our vet & I have also administered meds to past clients pets, so as long as I receive instructions from you It should not be a problem :) Most of my previous pet sitting business has been staying at my clients home for that's where the pet is most comfortable & adjusts easily too but we have had dogs stay at our home as well in which they always have a blast playing with our pets & having a big puppy party! Contact me for more info. If you would like for me to tend to to your pets at your home I require a meet and greet sometime before the day of departure. This allows me to meet the dog/pets before hand so they will be more comfortable with me entering the home without you there and also gives me a chance to meet you & get acquainted with your pets routine & your home along with picking up a house key etc. Generally if I tend to animals at your home, I pick up mail, water plants, take out trash on trash day etc which we can discuss during our first meet and greet. I also have a questionnaire I will have you fill out before hand so I am sure to have all of your needs & expectations met. I have experience working with many different types of dogs & cats including older pets with medical issues, larger dogs, puppies & also feeding specialty diets including raw food diet's. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out :)

Jamie has been caring for my pets for several years now. She goes above and beyond expectations, to ensure that my beloved animals are happy and safe at home. When our 21 year old cat needed twice daily subcutaneous fluids due to his advanced renal disease, Jamie was happy to learn how to do them. I have always felt at ease knowing that Jamie was at our home taking care of everything. Jamie is professional and responsible, and always kind to animals. I highly recommend her services.

My dog Virgil was my best friend and towards the end of his life he had some "special needs." I loved him more than anything and wouldn't trust just anyone with him...He was a hound dog and was known for sneaking off and following his nose. I had to travel quite a bit for work and honestly I have no idea what I would have done without Jamie. I always felt 100% comfortable leaving Virg in her care and he always had a great time. She would even send me photos to show me he was having a good time. If you're like me, your pets are family. If I ever decide to get another dog, there's no one else I would call.

Here's where we'll take our walks We keep our walks close to home depending on the dog. I love to walk the beach & go hiking, so if they are athletic, I'm totally open to taking them out . I also take them on strolls through the neighborhood. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: Anywhere they feel comfortable. Your doggie will receive a lot of love throughout the day and night.
