Pet care experience
We have cared for several dogs at once, of all ages, breeds and sizes. It has been a privilege to have been entrusted to care for dogs that were terminally ill and had special needs. Every dog that was under our care received the love and attendance we would expect our dog's care taker to give him. On many occasions we cared for the dogs in their home however on the most recent occasion we took two dogs into our home for 7 months. I have basic medical experience i.e knowing when stitches are needed, removing stitches, caring for wounds, correctly wrapping legs & other body parts and administering medications and wormers. I am capable of coming up with solutions in emergency situations. I have attended several surgeries minor to serious and have a good understanding of animal anatomy.
Reviews
Amalea made everything easy and took good care of Kobi while I was away. Thank you!
Great communication. Amalea made us feel comfortable while caring for our dog while we were away. Would recommend!
Amalea watched my 14-year-old terrier for 10 days and did a fantastic job taking care of her. Tessa is an anxious dog when we leave her and she did not calm down the day we left or the day after that. She was being snippy to Amalea's dog to make matters worse, which was unusual because Tessa previously stayed with several dogs. Amalea recognized that Tessa might feel safer with her crate (which we hadn't given her) so she picked it from our house so Tessa would have it during her stay. Thankfully it helped and Amalea's dog and Tessa became friends. Amalea did a great job of patiently waiting for Tessa to adjust and giving her the attention needed to make her feel safe. She is a natural with animals.
Jake and Henri LOVE AMI! Couldn’t ask for a better dog walker! ??❤️?

Information Amalea W. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the energy level of the dog so I can plan accordingly. Unfortunately, I can not accept dog or child aggressive dogs as I have a dog and 4 month old son.
A typical day
There is a dog run in our apartment’s outdoor communal space but it's just a short walk to the Wissahickon where we can hike or bike together and where swimming is an option as well! Or we can watch the time pass on a bench in the shade for the older ladies and gentlemen...
