Happiness is a room full of dogs
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Amber, and I just recently moved to Nashville! I’m a total nerd who loves to chill on the couch with a book and a pup beside me. I’m a huge pet lover who, unfortunately, is unable to own a cat or a dog, so pet sitting is how I get my animal fix! Dogs are one of my great loves in life. I previously worked at a no-kill shelter in Columbus, Ohio where I worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am comfortable with most temperaments—I haven’t yet met an anxious dog who didn’t warm up to me quickly. If your dog is reactive or has aggression issues though, I am not comfortable accepting the request. If needed, I can administer oral medication; I do not have experience with needles. I am Covid-conscious and triple vaxxed. I am a non-smoker, non-drinker, who adapts quickly to new surroundings. I am generally pretty quiet, and I always respect my surroundings. Just like I treat your pets like my own, the same goes for your home. I always make sure it is clean and well kept. By trusting me with the care of your home and your pets, you are giving me the opportunity to do what I love, so there is no question that I will go above and beyond what is expected of me. If you are interested in discussing an agreement further or wish to see additional references, please contact me. I am happy to answer any questions you may have!
Reviews
Amber was so great with Finn again. She sent pics and videos of Finn so I knew what they had done that day and it is evident from the pictures that he adores her! She was also flexible with my weird schedule which was much appreciated, as flight changes can be super stressful. We highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Amber was great with Finnegan! She was very inquisitive about his routine, likes/dislikes, etc. during the meet and greet which made me feel very at ease. She also sent lots of pictures and updates while I was gone so I knew my pup was well taken care of, and went above and beyond in my book! From how Finn interacted with Amber when I was leaving and all the photos she sent of them together it is clear that Finn adores Amber, and I would definitely have her watch him again in the future! Amber was also very respectful of my apartment which was much appreciated!
Amber was a great pet and house sitter for us and spent a lot of time with our pets. She was very diligent with each of our dog's specific needs and routines and our place was spotless when we returned. We are very glad to have gotten to meet Amber and will absolutely check her calendar the next time we need someone to look after our pets.
Amber did a great job watching my dogs over the weekend while I was out of town. She showed up on time for our meet and greet. Both of my dogs liked her from the start. She sent pictures and replied to texts immediately. Both dogs seemed happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

Safety, trust & environment
I follow any verbal or written instructions I have been provided. I often send updates to pet owners. I’m a big fan of sending selfies with pets!
Information Amber D. would like to know about your pet
It is always helpful to know how socialized your dog is or if they have any aggression issues with other dogs or cats. I also like to know if there is separation anxiety and how long they typically take to warm up to strangers. I do need to know of any food allergies or medicine that needs to be administered. Eating/walking/potty schedules are nice if there needs to be strict adherence.
A typical day
I am happy to take your dog for walks or to the dog park if they are properly socialized. If your dog is a big lovebug, we will happily snuggle on the couch!

Availability
I work in the service industry and do my best to accommodate all sitting requests. My job does keep me away from the house for 6-8 hour shifts though, so please be mindful of this when sending me a request!
