Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are my top priorities, whether it's in my client's home, walks or outings. This includes using secure leashes and harnesses, maintaining a watchful eye for potential hazards, and selecting routes with minimal traffic or other risks. In clients' homes, I follow their guidelines closely, ensuring a familiar and comfortable environment for their pets. Additionally, I maintain open communication with pet owners, providing updates and addressing any concerns promptly to build trust and peace of mind.

Information Amber B. would like to know about your pet

Absolutely, knowing important details about pets ahead of time is crucial for providing the best care possible. Before caring for a pet, I make sure to gather essential information such as: 1. Medical History: Any existing medical conditions, allergies, or medications the pet may require. 2. Behavioral Traits: Information about the pet's temperament, likes, dislikes, fears, and any specific triggers to be aware of. 3. Dietary Needs: Details about the pet's diet, feeding schedule, and any special dietary restrictions or preferences. 4. Exercise Requirements: The pet's activity level, preferred types of exercise, and any limitations or restrictions due to age or health conditions. 5. Emergency Contacts: Contact information for the pet's veterinarian and emergency contact for the owner in case of any unforeseen situations. By gathering this information in advance, I can tailor my care to meet the unique needs and preferences of each pet, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for them while their owners are away.

A typical day

While caring for the pets I watch, I prioritize engaging and enjoyable activities tailored to their preferences and energy levels. For dogs, activities may include interactive games such as fetch, tug-of-war, or hide-and-seek to stimulate both their minds and bodies. I also love exploring nature trails or nearby parks, providing opportunities for them to sniff, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors. For cats, I create enriching play sessions with toys like feather wands, laser pointers, and interactive puzzles to satisfy their natural instincts and keep them mentally stimulated. Additionally, I may set up nature shows on TV or videos of birds and wildlife to entertain and captivate their curious minds. By offering a variety of stimulating activities, I ensure that every pet in my care enjoys their time to the fullest.

Experienced Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my extensive experience and genuine passion for animal care. Having nurtured pets since a young age, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. What truly distinguishes me is my hands-on experience with dogs recovering from ACL surgery and ruptured disc surgery. Through dedicated care and attention, I've assisted these furry companions in their rehabilitation journey, providing specialized care tailored to their recovery needs. My commitment to compassionate care and my ability to handle complex medical situations make me a trusted choice for pet owners seeking exceptional care for their beloved companions.

Amber was available last minute when we needed a dog sitter for our girls. We were delighted she was available and so willing to help. Our dogs have specific instructions for care and she follows all of them and sent pics. Even went above and beyond in with cleaning efforts. What a gem. Highly recommend! ❤️

Amber is amazing! We have complete trust in her to take great care of our pups while we’re away. She updates us with how our pets are doing, and she’s responsive. Can’t appreciate her enough

Amber was caring and attentive to our babies when we left for the weekend. I needed someone who could stay with my kids full time and follow along with some things we do because one of my dogs has weird working dog quirks. Our dogs loved her and felt safe and that gave us peace of mind while we were gone! I can be a high maintenance dog mom, but Amber had my back. 10/10 would hire her again! ☺️
