“Amy is truly a dog whisperer! My very barky and unsure husky mix warmed up to her within a few minutes and has been great for all the visits. Our other dog, a little beagle, has been a cuddle machine with her. I would recommend Amy with 10 stars if I could. We are definitely having her back!”


About: From puppies to seniors, I spent the last 15 years helping raise two adorable labs and I’ve been caring for animals since I could basically walk. These days, I share my home with Jepsen, my 4.5 year old cat, who loves waking me up in the middle of the night by turning on my HomePods when she thinks it's time I feed her... Whether it’s a high energy pup or a chill senior cat, I understand what each stage of life needs - patience, play, and plenty of care. I work from home, so I can give your pet the time, attention, and belly rubs they deserve. I’ve got a soft spot for animals of all kinds—honestly, how can you not love them, even when they’re being a little chaotic? I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine with relative ease. Whether it’s a mid-morning walk, an afternoon drop-in, or overnight stays, I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. When I’m caring for pets in your home, their comfort and safety come first. I always follow your instructions closely. Whether it’s feeding routines, medication, crate time, or quirky habits that make your pet feel secure. For walks and drop-ins, I stay alert and focused, making sure your pet is safe and happy. For overnight stays, I treat your space with respect and keep things calm and consistent so your pet feels at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel cared for, and for you to feel 100% confident they’re in good hands.

“Amy took amazing care of our cat Stitches while we were away. She was very communicative and attentive when he had an upset tummy. I felt confident he was in good hands with Amy. In my opinion she went above and beyond my expectations for drop in visits. Highly recommend Amy!”


About: I love spending time in nature and hanging out with animals. Also I’m super willing to go on longer walks for the pups with an excess of energy! Early-afternoon walks work the best for me however my schedule is quite flexible allowing me to switch around the times in which I can help out some pets. I can provide the pets with the things they need like food and walks as well as entertain them and get them active and play around to release some of their energy.
