About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, been through training with two of them. Currently have a 3 year old and 11 year old so I get the senior portion and high energy. I’m a hairstylist so it’s very easy to create my own schedule or not work certain days or be able to break away for potty breaks or emergencies I don’t have children so I treat mine like they are. We go on lots of walks, lots of play time and snuggles. I like to stick to schedules as I know it’s good for them to act correctly.

About: I’m the go to sitter in my family. I’ve had dogs in the past but due to age they had to put them down. 😭 Due to my husband’s illness it’s no longer ideal for us to have dogs of our own. I love hanging out with dogs, even the hyper ones like my fur-nephew . I am very familiar with weekend long “drop-in’s” walking schedules, feeding and Disbursing of medicine. I’ve not had to give shots, but would be willing to learn if needed. I work during the weekdays but I am available until 8am, then an hour around 2:30 and after 5pm. Weekends I’m usually home. Will keep calendar updated. I live in the city but have a decent yard for the downtown area and it’s a fenced space! I also live near a park, and the river greenway and enjoy walks.

“Amara was great with my pets! They always seemed very content in the pictures and videos that Amara sent me while I was away on vacation. Amara was also very flexible and patient and very kind. My pets definitely seemed to love her! 😊”
