About: I grew up around many pets, big and small, cats and dogs plus everything in between. I’m an athletic person so long dog walks are awesome. I have a senior dog of my own that just recently passed whom I took care of all her medical needs. I am available weekdays after 12 most days and available at whatever time on weekends! I can do multiple stops a day if needed as well! I will do a walk through of the home and pets care before taking over and ensure that all their requirements are met. Will stick to the fur babies feeding and walk schedule!
“Jamie did a great job taking care of my cat while I was on vacation. She let me know when she was on her way, and she sent lots of pictures each drop-in! I highly recommend booking her!”
About: I have had pets my entire life. Dogs, cats, fish, turtles, hamsters and even a rooster. Currently I have two small dogs and three cats. My animals mean the world to me and I know yours are important to you as well. I will do my best to make sure they are well cared for and also make sure your home is secure. I am fully retired which gives me a very flexible and open schedule. I have a lot of free time that I am trying to fill up. Bringing some joy and comfort to your pet's lonely day while you are away would be a great way to spend that extra free time I have :) I have two dogs and three cats. They are friendly to other dogs if yours needs to stay with me for short term periods. I have a fenced in yard but all my pets stay in the house as would yours. When I visit your home, I will make sure everything seems the way it should be and alert you if something doesn't seem right.
About: I have always had pets growing up and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds and ages. My availability is 7 days a week at all hours of the day since I work from home as a jewelry designer. Being a part of Rover is something I genuinely enjoy..I am not on here to make money, I’m on here to help and create everlasting bonds. Throughout your best friend’s stay with me, I will update you with photos, videos, and messages letting you know about our day! I have been on the other side of this app as the dog parent and I completely understand wanting to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, happy and receiving all the love and care he/she deserves. If your companion gets along with other pups- I can take them to the park to play. If they don't get along with other pups- we can just hang out and take it easy inside. I love to go on walks and get some exercise as well if that is something your dog may be interested in. I also love to be lazy and binge watch shows if your dog loves to cuddle and hang out! I have experience with cats, small rodents, reptiles, horses, chickens, goats, fish, most farm animals, etc if you are interested in those services as well! Please read: • When booking for a house-sitting, please keep in mind my husband will be with me! If you and your companion(s) are comfortable with that then yay! We are an extremely organized, healthy, adventurous, properly hygienic, fun loving couple. We enjoy all animals (sea and land), traveling, finding peace in chaos, spreading love and light, and learning new things. We promise to respect your place like home and leave it cleaner than we found it :). Please check my photos for reviews from different house owners during our travels over the years. There’s two of us so that’s extra love and attention to your baby! :) I work from home so we will have all the time to hang with you and your companion! We can go on walks or play fetch at the park or just hang out inside! There won’t be a moment that your best friend will be alone (unless they like their space which I will respect).
