Pet care experience
Sitting, Training, Loving!
Hi, I’m Amber! I’m an experienced pet sitter and lifelong animal lover, and I’m really happy to be getting back into pet sitting after some time away. After building a lovely little community of repeat clients in Norwich, I had to take a break from Rover while I focused on my health. I was a Star Sitter for much of my time on the platform, and I’m now really excited to slowly get back to doing something I love and welcoming some new furry faces while continuing with treatment closer to home. I come from a huge animal-loving family, so I’ve always been surrounded by pets. We currently have six dogs, four horses, and nine chickens, and I’ve previously owned and cared for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish and hamsters too. My own dog Danti has been with me since I was 11, and caring for him taught me so much about responsible ownership, training and understanding a dog’s individual personality. I’ve trained him in obedience, agility and musical freestyle, and I love finding ways to keep dogs engaged and having fun! I also trained my Labrador Shep in assistance-dog work, giving me experience with structured training, focus, task work and adapting training to an individual dog. Unfortunately he has since passed away, but we had so much fun learning together. I’ve always loved getting to know animals as individuals with their own personalities. Whether your dog wants a quiet afternoon of cuddles, some enrichment, a little training or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and love!

Safety, trust & environment
I take the time to let each pet settle in at their own pace, particularly nervous or sensitive dogs. I’ll keep their normal routine as consistent as possible and make sure they have plenty of companionship, enrichment and attention. I’m comfortable with crate training if needed, having crate trained both my own dogs as puppies. I’ll also keep you updated throughout their stay, with plenty of photos so you can see what your fur baby has been up to!
Ratings and reviews
Friendly, arrived on time, respectful and great with Chip. He loved her and so did we! We will be using her again for certain and Chip agrees. We would highly recommend her! Thanks Amber!
Amber F. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Amber is warm, friendly and resourceful. She went out of her way to fulfil our dog-care arrangement. My dog and I were both very happy with her care and attention and I wouldn’t hesitate to request her services again.
Great, good communication and lots of lovely photos. Molly was a happy dog!
Amber was absolutely brilliant - responsive to messages and key me constantly updated. Will absolutely be booking again for future trips!
I was very grateful that Amber could accept this booking at short notice and everything went smoothly, Teddy clearly had a lovely time and I returned to a happy calm dog. Couldn’t hope for better! Thank you thank you 🤩

Schedule
I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule, meaning your pet won’t be left alone for long at all. I also pride myself on reliable communication and regular updates, so you’ll never be waiting long for a reply! Please note that I’m currently focusing on older dogs or dogs with low-to-moderate energy needs while I receive treatment for some mobility and other health challenges, so please ensure your dogs exercise needs are compatible with what I can currently offer. This may include shorter walks alongside plenty of companionship, play, training and mental enrichment. I’d be more than happy to discuss this with you if you’re uncertain! 😄

- I have no preference for size, breed or age, but it’s really important that I’m made aware of any behavioural quirks, nervousness, reactivity or medical needs beforehand so I know how best to prepare. I have extensive experience with dog training and am happy to reinforce existing training or work on basic obedience, tricks and manners where appropriate, including with puppies, provided their exercise needs are suitable. I use positive, reward-based methods and do not support the use of prong, e-collars, shock, spray or other aversive tools. I’m happy to use correctly fitted head collars or figure-of-eight slip leads at the owner’s request where appropriate. Additionally, If your dog has significant medical needs, please let me know in advance so we can make sure I’m equipped to provide the care they require.
