REVIEWS

What our esteemed clients, human and non-human, are saying about The Empowered Companion:

“I had a cat who was sick and could have passed at any time. Finding a sitter was not easy but Jaime accepted this challenge with no hesitations. Jaime visited twice a day feeding, watering and bonding/meditating with Tuxedo. I was very impressed with how quickly Jaime was able to achieve this level of interaction as he was shy and cautious of new people. Jaime sent text updates with photos twice a day. After the first day of care I had no worries Tuxedo was in good hands.

A few months after Tuxedo passed, Jaime called and said she had another cat that would be a good match for me to adopt. She was spot on with this match. My new friend, Keno, has brought new fun and joy to my life. If you are looking for any help with cats in the areas I've experienced you need to work with Jaime, She is an excellent cat caretaker and an even better person.”

-Bob, Tuxedo & Keno

“Jaime has demonstrated consistent reliability, punctuality, clear communication, and genuine care since we have had her provide weekly lunchtime check-ins on our almost 16-year-old mini poodle mix and 6-year-old husky collie mix. Our dogs LOVE Jaime.

Safety is important with a 6lb. senior dog: ours is entirely deaf, increasingly feeble, demonstrates cognitive difficulties, and has dietary issues. I trust Jaime wholeheartedly with these factors. Jaime is accommodating to our pet; she's always trying to understand what my dog is communicating as her needs continually change. Some days, my dog needs more quality time, some days it is a gentle reminder to return to her lunch bowl, and Jaime senses this. With that, Jaime always keeps us in the loop and consults if she observes any new behaviors.

We believe Jaime to contribute meaningfully to our dogs' overall quality of life. Both dogs have always been calm and content when we arrive home after Jaime's visits. Not all pet care providers are willing or able to meet your expectations for your pet, Jaime is a truly rare gem, pets and humans alike are fortunate she has committed herself to this passion.”

-Caitlin, Bella & Lady

“Jaime is a wonderful pet sitter and has taken great care of my diabetic cat who needs daily insulin injections and blood sugar monitoring. She was very adept at dealing with his health issues, and I know my (sometimes complicated) pet is in safe hands while I am away. Jaime is thoughtful and engaging, providing the care my little guy needs. I would highly recommend Jaime to friends, family, and others.”

-Ross & Marshall

“Jaime is wonderful! I first connected with Jaime when I was expanding my pet sitters after my cat was diagnosed with kidney disease. She pretty quickly became my primary pet sitter and I’ve recommended her to a number of friends since. My cat can be slow to make friends but he adores her, as does my dog!

Jaime has such a caring aura about her that animals connect to quickly. Great perk that she is also so respectful of my home.”

-Erin, Winston & Maxwell

“Jaime is a phenomenal cat sitter. She has watched our gremlins several times since we moved to Denver. Her check-ins are always thorough, and she sends great photos! She took the time to get to know all three of our cats' purrrsonalities and spends time with each of them during her visits. We have one very anxious kitty that usually hides from people. Not only does he not hide from Jaime, she is able to pick him up AND give him all the pets.

Her love for our kitties is evident and they can definitely detect her calming and healing energy- I'm quite convinced they actually like her more than us and are upset when we return home. If Jaime isn't available to watch them, chances are we aren't leaving town!”

-Emily, Sara, Grandpa Biscuit, Diablo & TT

“Jaime is far and away the best pet sitter we’ve worked with! She does an amazing job juggling the needs of our diverse and crazy crew - a geriatric diva dog, a shy cat, and a very bouncy, clingy puppy. Her visit updates are second to none, and they are always accompanied by so many adorable photos. She has taken the time to really get to know our fur babies and is fantastic about making sure they are each happy and healthy while we’re away. We cannot recommend Jamie highly enough!”

-Leland, Alley, Kiwi, & Bean

“We absolutely love having Jaime pet sit our two dogs! She is caring and communicative. We have one dog that is not trusting of strangers but took to Jaime immediately. It is such a relief for us, knowing that our pup connects with Jaime and is happy to be with her when we are not home! I think it’s Jaime’s calm energy and caring nature, which comes across in every interaction! Our dogs know the sound of her car and get so excited when she comes by.

I would recommend Jaime to anyone who needs someone to care for their beloved pets.”

-Erin, Jojo & Middy

“Jaime is super attentive and is a great communicator. From the time I met her, I had no doubts that she would take great care of my cat, Spydr. Spydr is a very shy, skittish cat and takes a while to warm up to most people. Through her animal reiki practice, Jaime got him out of his shell and showed that she’s trustworthy. She even gets to hold him, and that’s not something most people can say.

Aside from being a great companion to Spydr while I’m away, Jaime also provides great health updates like how often the litter box was used, how much he was eating and drinking, and his overall mood. I thoroughly enjoy that Jaime provided many photos and even videos from her visits. There is no mystery as to how Spydr is doing when Jaime is checking in on him.

Whenever I go out of town, and I need a cat sitter, Jaime is first in mind for me. I can’t recommend her enough!”

-Marah & Spydr

“From the moment Jaime met my miniature dachshund, Gus, during our meet and greet, I could tell she already cared about him. She was immediately very friendly with him and communicative with me, which only stood more and more true throughout her visits. During visits, Jaime sends various pictures of Gus having a great time with her and always gives a detailed summary of her visit. She's flexible and will go out of her way to make sure she can stop by to check on Gus when I request it while carefully following any directions I leave.

Having someone in my corner who helps me take care of my baby and who loves him just as much as I do is priceless. Thanks, Jaime!"

-Anne Marie & Gus

“I met Jaime, and it was evident right away that she was very knowledgeable and passionate about animals. I have an elderly cat with persistent health issues. I was able to go over this in-depth with Jaime and she provided me with excellent guidance and support to help with these issues.

She continues to go above and beyond with her care for my animal. For example, I had a family emergency and needed my cat to be checked on as I was unexpectedly away from home for a longer period. I contacted Jaime and even though her schedule was super busy she stepped in helped me in a time of need!

Jaime has a holistic approach to animal’s health, and this is so important because she can help my cat and other animals with a variety of approaches that support the animal’s health & well-being even those with complicated health issues. I use Jaime as a resource when I have questions or concerns and she always provides me with thorough information and referrals.

Also, most importantly, Jamie is very attentive to my cat during their time together. My mind is at ease knowing my cat is in her care because I know she will take wonderful care of him, and my cat loves his time with Jaime. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, helpful, resourceful, holistic, trustworthy, and loving person then you do not need to look any further, Jaime provides all those things and more!”

-Shannon & Adam

“Jaime is absolutely wonderful. We are so happy to have found her to watch over our two cats while we are out of town. She is respectful and attentive to our care instructions and goes above and beyond with pictures and updates to make sure we feel comfortable being away from our babies.

After a long search for the perfect fit to take good care of our cats, we knew immediately when we met Jaime that our search was over. I cannot recommend her services enough.”

-Alexa, Luna & Samson

“Jaime took incredible care of my cat. She is very patient, and made fast friends with my cat who usually is very afraid of strangers. She is a sitter who will utilize every minute of her time with your pet to make sure they have playtime, lots of affection, and direct attention. She provides thorough details about her sitting, and includes a ton of pictures. Jaime helps ease the anxiety of having to leave pets at home while traveling, and I highly recommend her services!”

-Briana & Frankie

“Jaime has been absolutely wonderful with our cat. It’s easy to see how much she cares about animals and she has a calming energy about her that puts you (and your pet) at ease. She doesn’t get fazed by “accidents” and cleans up after our cat when he’s been a bit naughty. In her updates, she posts lots of pictures and our whole family loves reading her reflections! We come home to a happy pet and a clean house.  Love her!”

-Rosalyn & Murphy

“From our initial meeting, I was impressed with Jaime’s professionalism and attention to detail. It was clear that Jaime is passionate about animals and genuinely cares for her clients. She took the time to get to know my pets routines, their likes and dislikes, and their personalities.

During my trip, Jaime provided daily updates on how my pets were doing, including pictures. She went above and beyond to ensure they were comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. I was grateful for the peace of mind knowing that they were in good hands.

When I returned home, my dog and cat were relaxed and content, which is a testament to the excellent care they received. I would not hesitate to recommend Jaime to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter.”

-Aileen, Dutch & Duke

“Jaime has been the best cat sitter for our two boys we’ve ever had. She’s reliable, communicative, and kind. It puts our minds at ease during our time away from home knowing our cats are in her care. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
