Aimee's Sit & Stay ~ Dunkirk, NY

Pet care experience

My name is Aimee and I am a huge animal lover! I grew up with tons of animals in my life. We always had many different pets. I currently have 2 dogs, 7 indoor cats, 4 guinea pigs and pet rats. (all small animals are kept safely and securely away from the dogs, no worries). My animals are a part of my family. I give them the very best and will treat your dogs the same as my very own! I work from home, so I am always available 24/7 even most holidays and will always be home to give the dogs quality time. I am married with no children currently (though on occasion my niece & nephew may visit). We are a smoke free home. My home is good sized with plenty of space and quiet personal space for all the pets. I have a ok sized yard that the dogs love to play in! It is not fenced in currently (soon!) but dogs are always on leashes and I am always outside with them when they are out. No dog will be chained up outside. I also have long leads to allow the dogs to run and play. I believe dogs need lots of play to burn off their energy! I also give dog walks daily. ** Training ** I have experience training dogs and believe purely in positive reinforcement (R+) training methods. I am fine with both crate training and not. Because of my views on R+ training, I do not use prongs, choke chains or electric collars. If your dog normally uses these, there is no judgement but I will be using a flat collar or harness with them during the time of their visit. Also all small dogs will only be walked with a harness to prevent any injury & pressure to their throat and trachea. I can provide the collar/harness. ** MEDS** I have volunteered in the past with a local shelter and animal rescues. I did focus mainly with cats at the time. I have helped at vet clinics and given feral cats sedation, shots, shaved them for surgery and even assisted in the spay/neuter surgeries themselves. I am comfortable giving medicines & shots. I had a client who had several pets on medications and a diabetic cat who needed insulin shots twice daily. I will gladly care for dogs of any age or needs. All sizes! All breeds! All dogs will have an experience best suited for their needs, be it a fun playful busy day of being outside a ton with walks. Or a nice quiet relaxing day to lounge around and chill, and anything in between!

I believe that Aimee Sek would be a wonderful pet sitter. Not just dogs but all kinds of animals really. She has had animals her whole life and has spent a lot of her adult life educating herself about animals and helping them.

Aimee is great with animals. She watched my husky for me on several occasions. My boy is high maintenance, spoiled, argumentative, stubborn, loves to lick you and sheds like crazy and she never once complained. He loved her. She walked him like a pro. She played with him and brushed him. She even helped enforce my training. I highly recommend her.

A typical day

I try to give all the dogs I watch a personal experience that is best suited for their individual needs. I always make sure to create an experience based on your pet's needs as no two pets are the same. For activities I have mountains of toys and love a good game of fetch or tug of war! As well as chews and toys that keep them busy such as filled kongs or treat puzzles. For more active dogs a good playtime experience outside and nice long walks. ❤ Comfortable around many different animals and all sizes/breeds of dogs. ❤ Comfortable working with multiple dogs ❤ Flexible in our pick-up/drop-off hours. Willing to work around your schedule and available on most holidays ╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮╰☆╮ What I offer: ☆ Daily walks, even multiple if the dog needs it. ☆ Lots of toys including PB filled kongs to keep pups busy! ☆ Treats (if approved by the owner) ☆ Quiet spaces if they wish to be alone or rest ☆ Other dogs to play with ☆ Backyard to play in.
