Pet care experience

Caring, reliable dog lover

I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for five family dogs, plus my grandparents’ dog when they could no longer take care of him. From daily walks to long hikes, being around dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’ve worked with a reactive dog, so I’m patient and attentive on walks, and I’ve also helped a dog get to physical therapy appointments, which gave me experience supporting dogs who need a little extra care. Even when I lived abroad, I made sure to stay around dogs by volunteering at a shelter and helping walk them. My housemate even trusted me as the only person to take care of his dog. I’m reliable, observant, and genuinely love getting to know each dog. Whether your pup needs energy-burning walks or a slower, gentle pace, I’ll meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and cared for.

We had a great experience with Amber taking our dog on a few walks this week. She was communicative, punctual and kind! He is a large dog and she was confident with him and kept him safe while walking him. He was very, very happy to see her for the last walk of the booking which tells me how much he enjoyed his time with her. Will definitely book Amber again for any of our dog needs!

Amber took wonderful care of our two cavalier King Charles. She’s always on time to take them out very flexible with schedule changes and send lots of adorable pictures which helps miss them just a little less when I’m gone to work!

Highly recommend Amber! My dog is obsessed with her. She is reliable and responsive, and she is able to work around changing schedules and weather.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m flexible and aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and consistent as possible. In your home, I follow your pet’s usual schedule for walks, feeding, playtime, and rest so they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. In my home, I create a calm, safe space and stick closely to their routine while giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also keep you updated so you always know how your pet is doing.
