Your dogs next best friend

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Amelia and I have been around dogs my entire life. Over the last few years I have had the amazing opportunity to volunteer with service dogs in training. I am not a pro in the slightest bit, but like to think I have obtained more knowledge of of dog training, enrichment, and behavior through this journey. I am comfortable caring for dogs of any age and breed as long as the owner has given me all of the info that I will need to make this a successful pairing for all. I currently have one dog of my own that I love to death, his name is Opie! I will be more than happy to send you photos during and after my visits! I have not had any clients through rover as I have recently activated an account again to try it out. I can’t wait to finally meet some new dogs and try to help make a difference in your lives! I am currently student teaching this semester so most of my availability will be after school (around 4:00 pm-whenever). I would love for you to reach out to me before booking anything to chat about if I am the right fit for you and your dogs needs. -If you use training tools, I am comfortable with them as long as it is not a prong collar. Prong collars are beneficial tools for some dogs, as long as they are used correctly. I do not have enough training or information on prong collars to ensure that I would use it correctly therefor I will not walk a dog that uses one. This is the responsible thing to do! -it will be Important for me to know if your dog is an escape risk or not.

Amelia has been in my life for a little over a year now, and I have seen her interactions first hand with several dogs! She is so very caring, loving, and patient with the animals in her life. She understands dogs needs and tries to provide for them accordingly. I am always more than comfortable leaving my dogs in her care.

Information Amelia G. would like to know about your pet

- I would like to know if your dog has any form of reactivity. This of course is not a deal breaker, but is important for me to know to ensure that they are taken care of appropriately. -what your expectations are for your dog. Are they allowed on furniture? Do they need to be crated? Do they alert bark?

A typical day

-I love doggy enrichment and would be able to bring some of my things over to try out with your dog if I deem it appropriate (and you of course have agreed) -sniffy walls are great for dogs enrichment and provide lots of mental stimulation -longer walks without breaks for sniffing are fine for physical needs. I cannot run with your dog, I am not fit enough, sorry! If you have a yard I’m more than happy to try to get them moving and active out there!
