Dogs and I are the pawfect pals!
Pet care experience
I'm Aimee, I grew up with multiple Chihuahuas but in high school we decided to get a Husky named Gypsy! When we got her she was just a puppy at 6 months old, I moved to university and even though I'm not with her all the time, I FaceTime with her as much as I can! She loves seeing me when I go back home to visit, she almost knocks me down, she's so excited! I use to help my roommate take care of dogs: taking them on walks, potty breaks, and going to dog parks. I still provide great doggie care on weekday evenings (I work from 9-5PM Mon-Thurs) and am free all weekend long! I look forward to working with the best customers in the world, your pups!
Reviews
While I’m sure Aimee is a huge dog lover and fantastic dog walker, this review is for my recent house/petsitting; it was not ideal. First, I understood from Aimee’s page that visits would occur every 8+ hours. I was expecting something in the range of 8-10 hours as that is what my pup is used to and seems like a pretty reasonable duration. Instead the duration between visits was generally in the mid-teens of hours and, in at least one case, exceeded 18 hours. That is far too long for my, and I expect, most people’s needs. Secondly, when no one is home my dog lives in her crate. On at least two occasions my dog was not secured in her crate. I could see her wandering my home on my security camera. My dog caused an untold amount of minor damage to my home (pet hair and markings on my furniture, urine on my oriental rug, etc). The fact that I could see that she was out wreaking havoc while having no means of getting her returned to her crate added some unnecessary stress to my vacation. Finally, Aimee intended to leave my front door unlocked following her last visit. Luckily I was actively on my phone when that text came in and offered up an alternative solution which was followed. I am pretty security conscience and wouldn’t dream of leaving my front door unlocked for an extended period of time and I am shocked that someone being paid to watch my house would consider that acceptable. I’ll plan to look elsewhere for future house/petsitting needs.
Aimee absolutely loves animals! Ever since I've known her, she's always talking about how cute a dog is when we pass one. Moreover, she's gets so excited to ask the owner is she can pet them. She's helped take care of dogs before and is very cognitive of their needs and behavior. I believe that Aimee brings extra love and care when working with animals.
Aimee has always been great with animals! I've known her for a very long time and she is the kindest person I know. She is extremely professional and hard working. She can be trusted to watch and walk dogs because responsible and always willing to do the right thing for anybody!
Prior to being Aimee's roommate I have known her to be a lover of animals. She is quite the advocate for animal rights. Along with being great with dogs she is responsible, compassionate, accommodating, and most importantly attentive. Just this past year she has taken care of multiple dogs of friends. One of which stayed with her for less than a month.

Information Aimee G. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know if your dog is active or not, to know around how long to walk them and such. If they have any special needs or if you would prefer me to take a specific route. Nothing out of the ordinary.
A typical day
If I am picking up your dog from Downtown, after work, we'll most certainly be going to Shaw Dog Park and walking around Logan Circle! If I pick up from your house, I will make sure to know the (dog) parks around or less busy streets to walk your pup!
