Hello, my name is Jamie. I am originally from Wisconsin and moved to NC in 2005. I have always been a lover of animals. I will be the person that will remember your pet’s name before I remember yours- even though you are probably very lovely 😉! Max, my husband, and I bought Love and Kisses Pet Sitting in December of 2021. We have been surrounded by an awesome group of pet sitters who care so deeply about the pets in their care. I love doing visits for all kinds of pets. I am up for anything! Max and I have a teenage son named Jack. Jack is in Cross Country and Wrestling. We have 3 pets (as of right now), 2 dogs, Madison and Dude, and 1 cat, Chocolate. I would like to meet your pets, call us today!

Hello, my name is Max. I grew up in Williamsburg, VA and I’ve been around pets my whole life.  We had a dog, cats, guinea pigs and several other pets growing up.  My extended family had horses, chickens, ducks, etc.  I’ve always loved being around and caring for animals.  My wife Jamie and I bought Love and Kisses Pet Sitting at the end of 2021, and we have been full-time owner/operators ever since.  We have an amazing team of incredible pet sitters and we love having the opportunity to work with them, our clients and their pets every single day.  It’s also pretty awesome to come home to our crew of 2 dogs (Dude and Madison) and a cat (Chocolate).  They definitely keep us busy and smiling

Marie

Pet Sitter/Animal Lover

Certified in Feline Communications

I am NJ native, most recently living in Cherry Hill, NJ. In 2011, I moved to Charlotte with my husband Bill, and our two kitties, Rosie and Rocket. My son had moved down here in 2006 for a job, and we decided to follow a few years later. We have been able to enjoy our grandchildren, and the more laid-back lifestyle down here. I have had cats most of my life, and love all animals. Sadly, we lost Rocket in 2014, and Rosie a month ago. So I am without a pet for the first time in years. While I’m sure there will be another cat or two in my future, I have decided to enjoy taking care of other people’s furry friends for the time being. I have volunteered at an animal rescue in the past and found that very rewarding. I look forward to caring for your pets; they will definitely get lots of “love and kisses”

My mom got me my first dog when she was pregnant with me and I have only been without one for a few years when I lived in an apartment. I then discovered a love of cats, because I just couldn’t be without a pet. I rescued my cat Keeva, who crossed the rainbow bridge in August 2021, at 20 years old. I have also had rabbits, rats, a hamster and fish. I have a great love for all animals and I’m so excited to be a pet sitter. My family is originally from Pennsylvania but we have lived here since 2017. I’m currently raising 3 human children and one Labrador child named Max. I look forward to caring for all your babies!

I am originally from Colorado but moved with my family to Charlotte 12 years ago. Being active outdoors, we love everything about North Carolina with having the best of both worlds….the mountains and the ocean. I recently retired from the Corporate world and can finally pursue my true passion – caring for animals.  I have had pets my whole life from dogs, cats, and even a rooster that I raised from a chick!

I am a Mom to two border collies, Cooper (6) and Max (9 months). My husband keeps them active with all kinds of agility games.  My “shadow” is a 13 year old rescue golden retriever named Solomon.

I feel so fortunate to be part of the Love and Kisses “pack” of talented pet sitters.  I can’t think of anything better than caring for your pets.  I look forward to giving your babies lots of love and care.

Hi, I’m Kimberly. My grandparents let their dog come live with us when I was two, and I was hooked! I’ve never not had at least one dog since – sometimes up to four! And I’ve mixed in some sweet kitties, mice, and fish through the years. Our pets add so much joy to our lives! 

It’s my honor to care for your precious pets when you are away. I know how important loving and trustworthy care is for my pups, and I will care for your animals like my own. 

I currently live in Matthews, but have been in the Charlotte area for over 30 years. I have two teenagers and two mini-Goldendoodles. I love being out and about so pet sitting has been a perfect fit for me. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon.

My mom had such a hug for animals- we were the family known for taking in strays, or helping an injured animal. Mom took me to volunteer at a shelter when I was 15, and over the years, I’ve helped out with everything from fostering to TNR. I’m originally from Northeast Ohio, moving to Charlotte in 1998 and my husband and I purchased an art and framing franchise. We created a craft product in 2001, and now travel to art and craft shows selling our products. We currently have Jax, our 16 pound Maine Coon mix. He absolutely rules the house, and we couldn’t love him more! 

I look forward to taking care of your pets, giving them as much care as I would my own. My goal is for you to know that while you’re away, your fur babies are in great hands!
