16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

I currently have a full time job as a veterinary assistant and receptionist so I do work there 5 days a week from 7am to 4:30pm and thay is why I decided I should be able to care for fur babies on the weekends so I can dedicate more time to loving them while their pet parent is away. I am felixable if someone lived closer to me and my work then I may try and work out week day pet sitting plans.

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet is different and their pets parents know them best. I always like to have a written list of their daily routines, when they get fed, how much food they get, if they need to sit and wait for their food. What activities they like the most, if they have any medications then I like to have a list of those and times to give them. Staying at a parent's home to love their pet for them gives the pet the familiarity of being in their own space instead of somewhere new, I leave the home better than I arrived. Sometimes I just do several drop in visits a couple time through the day depending on if I am not wanted to stay in the home.

Information Amber R. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if they have any pet reactivity, do they have any fears of objects, colors, genders. Favorite food and or treats Any allergies they may have Any health concerns

A typical day

Playing with toys is one of my favorite things to do with dogs and cats, it creates a relationship with that pet and helps them get their energy out. If they would like a cuddle then cuddle time is always available. Walks to parks or trips in the car.

Pet care experience

Dogs are well and dear to my heart, I currently don't have any dogs due to my heart dog passing about 1 year ago but she taught me that all pets young and old deserve a loving person to care for them and love them when their person can't be there. I have experience with a wide variety of dogs and cats and all of them deserve love.

She always came over and took care of namy cats for me. She is also really good with dogs. She's a vet tech so she knows a bit about animals and can help. I've had her help with trimming my dog's nails. She's very reliable, she was always there for me when I needed help taking care of my pets. Amber is very loving when it comes to animals, always willing to help watch them.

Amber loves animals with a passion. She treats all animals with care and kindness. She went into vetrinary care just so she could help them and be around more pets.
