Dog Walking Amherst

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind at a veterinary clinic. My duties included taking them outside to use the restroom, clean their cages and giving them baths. I have also watch my neighbors pets since I was 15. My duties included letting the animals out, feeding them breakfast and dinner and taking them on walks. I am available at anytime of the week. I typically work nights. My schedule is very flexible so I can leave work for a couple hours at a time to check in with your pets. I would follow instructions given to me about taking care of the animal and clean up when needed in a clients home. Some examples would be following written or verbal instructions.

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals at various ages/health levels/behavioral attitudes. I see every animal as an individual requiring specific care and love to learn about what makes them each unique. I grew up caring for chickens, had a dog in agility, along with a pet parakeet. I lived in Myanmar during peace corps and quickly became known as the "cat house" because all the stray cats would go in and out of my house--and I ended up caring for 3 litters of kittens alongside the mothers (thankfully getting them both spayed). I've done some fostering and overnight pet-sitting, and would meet your pets needs wherever they're at! I will be substitute teaching starting in the fall, so before that my schedule will be quite flexible, then afterwards I’ll still be available and flexible (I don’t plan to sub every day as I’m also an online student) but wouldn’t always be able to do midday visits. However, just ask! I only provide care in the pets' habitats as I can't guarantee my cats would get along with all animals, but I promise to leave the house looking the same as it did when I came in, use the appropriate leash/harnesses on walks, and keep litter boxes clean.

About: I used to work at Bark and Brew and occasionally dog sit! I have three of my own puppies at home so I have plenty of experience as well as also fostering dogs! I’m looking for something to do in my free time as well as making some furry friends 😊 I am currently working two part time jobs but I can help before or after either of the job when need be. I have lots of free time in the middle of the day between 12-4! I love interacting with pets as in playing with them or walking them! I make sure they get everything they need and more hoping to make their day enjoyable!
