Safety, trust & environment

- I understand that gaining a pet's trust can be tricky, but we can achieve great things with patience, encouragement, and a few tasty treats! - I cater to each animal's specific needs, whether they want to play, relax, or enjoy some alone time. - I pay close attention to animal body language and know how to respect boundaries. - I'll follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet is comfortable. - A complimentary first-time Meet & Greet helps us connect and ensures your pet feels safe and at ease! ⭐

Information Aimee S. would like to know about your pet

Please share your pet's feeding schedule, any dietary restrictions, and allergies with me. Additionally, it would be helpful to have your emergency contacts and veterinary details. If you could also tell me about their favorite toys and comfort items, that would really help me create a familiar and safe environment for your beloved family member. Thank you!

A typical day

I’ll follow your pet's daily routine while ensuring we have a great time together! We'll go on walks, cuddle on the couch, play tug-o'-war, and do everything in between. ​ I’m great at keeping up with playful, high-energy pets and just as skilled at slowing things down for mellow animals who love their quiet time. Whatever their vibe, I’ll match it. With my kitty friends, I take it slow to earn their trust. It's so rewarding when they choose to show affection. I enjoy using a feather wand or a crinkly toy to get the fun started! Rest assured, I’ll keep their water fresh, meals served, and potty areas clean. I'll shower them with all the love they deserve while you’re away.

Love & Care When You Can’t Be There

Pet care experience

Hello there, I'm Aimee! I'm a dedicated full-time pet sitter who has been caring for animals since I was about 15. More than 20 years later, my passion for their care is stronger than ever. ​​​ I make sure to follow each owner's instructions carefully so your pet feels safe and comfortable. While your furry family member is with me, I'll keep you updated as often and in whatever way works best for you. ​​ As a pet owner myself (I have a beautiful senior Frenchie named Jersey), I've used Rover while traveling. I understand how stressful it can be to trust someone new. A Meet & Greet is a great way to make sure everyone feels comfortable and confident before booking. Feel free to reach out anytime to schedule one. I can't wait to meet you and your beloved pets! ​ 🐶🐾 Sidenotes: - Drop-in visits include walks. The app will provide you with a map that includes the distance and time spent on our walk. - I will take trash bins out, water plants, collect mail, sweep/vacuum, etc. I take pride in keeping things tidy for you and your pets. This includes cleaning outdoor potty areas, indoor accidents/puppy pads, and litterboxes. - I'm experienced in caring for small caged animals like reptiles, birds, and rodents. - I'm fluent in Spanish.

Aimee was a wonderful pet sitter! She came over to meet our cat well in advance of our trip and was terrific at communicating with us while we were gone. She sent beautiful pictures of our cranky cat Bailey playing with her and took in our mail, etc. Everything was great on our return and I think Bailey made a new friend. Highly recommend.

Aimee was incredible! She went above and beyond for my two persian cats, treating them like they were her own. Next time we leave for any length of time, Aimee will most definitely be the person we call. She’s sweet, attentive and professional!
