About Jamey

Hello. My name is Jamey and I'm a US American living in Hamburg and miss having animals in my life, hence I want to pet sit. I'm learning German but I'm not fluent. I currently work with children but had the opportunity presented itself, I would be working in animal care.

Past experiences with animal care includes having my own cats and dogs, directing a goshsla (cow sanctuary) for one year, veterinary assistance (not licensed ((this was in India and things run a bit differently there), pet sitting (at pet's home and my home), field research, animal rescue, volunteering at multiple animal sanctuaries around the world, and reading of animal psychology. I'm sure there is more. I've done a lot of things in my life.

Personal information includes being vegan for over twenty-one years, directing environmental and humanitarian work in India and Haiti for almost a decade, environmental advocacy, public speaking about non-violent philosophy and sustainable living, bicycle advocacy, childcare, senior care, and lots and lots of volunteering in a variety of fields.

My home is pet friendly and has hosted many dogs. It's a spacious apartment. It is a third floor walk-up. I can carry the animals up and down if they are seniors or in need of help. And while I'm vegan, you're companions will eat what they normally eat, vegan or otherwise.

Spending time with your little loved ones would really be a privilege and one I'm hoping you can trust me with. My main interest is in spending time with dogs but all other animal care is open for discussion.

Thanks very much,

Jamey

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English
+20 years of experience
I've been a care giver to animals and humans for three decades. I've worked with cats, dogs, cows, goats, horseshoe crabs, birds, rodents, lizards, and pigs. My skills are generalized with lots and lots of experience. Feeding, basic grooming, safety, walking, basic medical care and lots of affection (for the animals that want it) are my skills. I'm not pet cpr trained but I'm experienced in crisis management and keep calm in stressful situations; getting problems resolved and doing so with love and patience. Currently, I work thirty hours a week, close to my home. This means I'm often away from the apartment between 4-6 hours. Please keep this in mind for your animals needs.
