Jaimie

I will be prompt to reply now that I am settled.

I am a 22-year-old freelance worker who frequently pets and house-sits for a variety of furry friends. I am from a farm in Wellington, New Zealand, where I loved to take my clients (doggos!) for runs through the paddocks or walks. I am doing a road trip down to California and back and would love to experience some citys alongside your furry friends this summer . I work fully remote so will spend some time at home for nervous or lonely pets. I also love to explore parks, beaches, local coffee shops with my dog clients, so be assured that they will get as much exercise as you'd like.

I have looked after and owned horses, pigs, sheep, cats and dogs since I was a child. I am a proud horse rider, owning two fantastic horses who are treated like royalty. We have competed all over NZ together. I am also a cat Mum and an adoptive dog Mum to one dog who visits my home in NZ frequently. Many would describe me as animal-mad, which couldn't be closer to the truth being a farm girl at heart.

This past year I have taken on a dozen very happy clients as a stay-in pet sitter. I am available from now and have plenty of testimonials to vouch for my work from my 10+ NZ clients and one extremely happy client in Whistler as of recently. I have looked after dogs with disabilities such as epilepsy, teams of working dogs, multiple horses and kittens who need monitoring. I have looked after dogs for weeks at a time, who have enjoyed hour-long walks through the local trails with me, visits to my family farm, and to my old art studio in central Wellington where they are showered with love from all my friends.

I work as a painter and a remote worker so my clients never leave my side. I paint animals as my main subject and have painted several paintings of my clients for their parents to enjoy. But I do not paint in homes to ensure I don't damange anything, instead I love to paint outdoors.

My main motivation to be a pet sitter is the company as I often work alone and being able to explore Canada and the USA for the first time. I love taking in pets who have anxiety as I can offer them a secure companion for almost all hours of the day.

I have a car, valid license, visa and a job.

I would love to hear from you if you want a vetted, trustworthy and fun pet sitter. I can ensure dozens of updates, photos and fun experiences for your pet that leave them hanging for their next Jaimie visit 🐴🐱🐶
