Safety, trust & environment

Our dogs are herding breed and very active, so I am used to playing all of the games. I like to use positive reinforcement with all animals. I will treat your home with respect just like I do my own.

Information Jamie S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs your animal might have. Do they like to chase squirrels on the leash? Did they sometimes have an accident when they're nervous? Are they allergic to most treats? Just let me know!

A typical day

I know your pets miss you when you're gone. My hope is that I can provide a little distraction and attention to ease their day without you. I would love to share in whatever their favorite activities are. With my own pets, I've become pretty adept at tossing a ball and a frisbee, because that's what they love. I'm not shy from a good laser pointer game with your kitties either. If a good walk is what they love, let's go!

Pet care experience

I was raised in a home with lots of animals, dogs, cats and fish. My grandparents raised rabbits and birds. I was around pets domestic and exotic and love all creatures. My first job was pet sitting, my second was in a horse stable. I've had animals in my care my whole life. My day job is caring for humans as a nurse, I would love to say hi to your good boys and girls!

Jamie did such a great job watching my dog Bella! Appreciated her detailed visit updates and pictures. Her attention to detail really sets her apart. Highly recommend Jamie if you need pet care services! She will not disappoint.

Jamie was incredible! She took care of our cat Socks for a few days while we were out of town and met with us beforehand so we would feel comfortable with her. Socks loved having a friend visit, and Jamie was professional, sweet, and communicative through the whole process! She even traversed a snow storm to take care of our girl! We’ll definitely be asking for her to come back in the future :)

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
