Animal lover & welfare professional

Pet care experience

I have loved animals and been around them my entire life; ranging from farm animals to domesticated animals, I love them all the same. I have had animals (mainly dogs) in my life since before I was even born and have had dogs of my own for the last 9 years. The last few years I also became involved in animal welfare at multiple shelters and still work/volunteer in helping care for the animals. I have experience with animal behavior, medication and vaccination administration, routine care, and of course giving them love when they need it most. I am also familiar with the needs of many breeds of dogs and the particular behavior they may exhibit that would need to be monitored. I know from experience that every dog is different in its own way and needs to be cared for in a way that will best suit its needs. I promise to do my very best making each dog comfortable and making sure their needs are met in every way I can. Caring for animals is a passion of mine and I know how I want my animals cared for when I am away and I plan to do just that for you to ease your mind while you are away. My husband also has a strong passion for animals and will be excited to help me out when I am caring for your animals to ensure their needs and your wishes are being met to the best of our abilities. We can't wait to meet you and love your furry friends like they are our own because animals are like family and I believe they should be treated as such!

Amber and Matt are incredible animal lovers. They have a pure love for all creatures but dogs become family. Amber has both worked for and volunteered at animal shelters and the lessons she has learned are invaluable. She connects with dogs like she speaks their language. I would definitely recommend Matt and Amber and I trust them 100% with my furbabies.

What a great service! My dogs get their daily walks and bathroom breaks while I'm at work. Amber is very personable and the dogs are always excited to see her.

I have known Amber & Matt for 5 years. They are both dog loving people, as they have many of their own. Amber works for an animal shelter and is always talking about how much she enjoys all the animals, and is so passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend both of them. Your animals will be greatly cared for, you would not be disappointed.

Amber and Matt treat their doggies like they’re their kids. I would trust them with my dogs any day. I know my dogs would be in such good hands and always taken care of while giving them the love as if they were their own.

Information Amber & Matthew W. would like to know about your pet

I do not have a breed preference. Before sitting a dog either in your home or my own I would like to know; are they kennel trained, house trained, dog friendly, any behavior concerns or specifications, medications, allergies, restrictions (no kids, no small animals, etc.), daily routine, pretty much anything that you feel I need to know. If the dog is staying at my house I would prefer that it meets my dogs before the stay so I know if I am going to have to keep them separated or if they can be together.

A typical day

I have a 1 acre fenced in back yard that we can explore or play with toys in. I also have a few walking trails in the area and live in a quiet neighborhood that we can utilize to explore. Depending on the dogs comfort level I love taking dogs on car rides and to animal friendly store to explore their surroundings.
