Pet care experience

Your dog’s second favorite human

Hi! I’m a full-time dog walker and pet sitter with professional experience since 2018 and a lifelong love for animals that started at the Memphis Humane Society with my dad, a vet tech. I’m also a certified dog trainer, so your pup gets more than just care—they get structure, positive reinforcement, and safe handling. My rescue dog, Jude, often joins me on stays as a calm and well-mannered socialization buddy for dogs of all ages. We keep a fun but balanced environment with plenty of walks, play, and downtime. I’m home most of the time, never leave pets unsupervised outside, and safety is always my top priority. I require a meet & greet (in-home, backyard, or park) before every booking to make sure everyone feels comfortable and confident. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I can provide constant supervision at an additional rate. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and follow secure leash, kennel, and feeding routines. I maintain a calm, clean, structured environment where every dog is treated like family and stress is kept to a minimum. You’ll always receive clear communication, updates, and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

Jaymes is the best! I am grateful for the peace of mind when I’m away because I know my fur babies are so well taken care of. He always goes above and beyond.

Schedule

My day starts with morning walks, feedings, and potty breaks, followed by mid-day check-ins, playtime, and enrichment. I do rideshare part time, but only for short, scheduled blocks, and never for long stretches—your pets are still my main focus and priority. Most of the day is spent in the home with the dogs, providing supervision, companionship, and structured downtime. Evening routines include another round of walks, dinner, and calm wind-down time.
