Pet care experience

Your Animals’ Calm, Trusted Guardia

With over 25 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals, I bring a unique blend of professionalism, intuition, and grounded presence to every animal I care for. My background in law enforcement, behavioral observation, and trauma-informed support makes me especially skilled with animals who are anxious, reactive, or sensitive. I’ve worked with everything from puppies to senior pets, high-energy working breeds to misunderstood rescues, and multi-pet households that require structure and reliability. I’m confident with medication administration, basic training follow-through, and reading body language to prevent issues before they start. What sets me apart? 🐾 Veteran-level experience—not a hobbyist or casual sitter 🐾 Criminal justice & security background—you can trust your home and animals are safe 🐾 Farm-capable—comfortable caring for chickens, goats, donkeys, horses, and more 🐾 Trauma-aware—I understand how to approach fearful or reactive animals with calm authority Whether you're gone for a day or several weeks, I ensure your animals are cared for with the same diligence and loyalty I give my own. Additional Animal & Farm Care Pricing Have animals that aren’t listed on Rover? No problem, I also care for chickens, goats, donkeys, horses, and more. I’ve worked in law enforcement, security, and animal care for over a decade, so your home and animals will always be treated with professionalism and respect. If you’d like to add non-traditional animals to your booking, just message me and I’ll provide a custom quote based on care needs, travel, and time commitment. Here’s a general guide: 🐓 Chickens (basic flock care): $10–15/day 🐐 Goats or Sheep: $15–20/day 🐴 Horses – Basic Feed & Turnout: $35/day 🐴 Horses – Full Care (feed, turnout, stall, meds): $70/day 🦆 Other Farm Animals: Case-by-case, starting at $10/day Deluxe walk- at a park, forest, or trails- $35 I do work 3-11 but have the abilitiy to work from home. So as long as you have wifi I'm available. I can still give your pet the care they need. Because sameday requests require me to rearrange my schedule quickly, a $20 last minute surcharge is added to all bookings made within 24 hours of service. Thank you for understanding! My service radius is 25 miles from my home in Smithfield, Pa. Anything beyond that includes a distance surcharge of .75 cents a mile round trip after the 25 miles are hit, and same-day requests may not be available for extended distances. This excludes boarding pick-ups which a pick up fee is already listed or house sitting. This only includes drop ins or walks. Custom quote for 4+ animals or complex care needs Booking Policy: My schedule fills on a first-come, first-served basis. Dates are not held or reserved until a booking is confirmed through the platform. If you're interested in future dates, I recommend booking as early as possible to ensure availability.

Amber kept us posted with pictures and updates during our absence. Moxie was in good hands! Nice to be worry- free while traveling.

I would highly recommend Amber if you need someone to care for your furry friend. She took amazing care of our sweet Shih Tzu and did a great job keeping me updated about him while we were on our trip. Professional and caring!

Amber was great, we felt very comfortable and at ease with her watching our French Mastiff, Delilah, during our week vacation. Amber stayed in our home with Delilah, she was very communicative and very accommodating. We highly recommend Amber and we will be sure to contact her for future sitting needs.

This was our first time boarding with Amber and we couldn't have been happier. She was extremely accommodating with our timeline and provided pictures & feedback throughout our girls visit... this put our minds at ease allowing us to focus on a family matter. Our girl came home happy & tired!!!
