Quality Care Pet Sitter

I have over eight years of professional experience caring for animals at pet hotels, veterinary offices, and animal shelters. I am passionate about what I do and I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments. I know that our dogs are not only our companions, but members of the family, and I strive to always treat them as such. If you want your dog to be happy, well-cared for, healthy, and comfortable while you are away, look no further! General Manager of Pet Boarding & Grooming facility Assistant Manager at Petsmart Petshotel. Office Manager at the Canine Hilton Kennel Technician/Veterinary Assistant. Pack Member at Crackerdog. Adoption Counselor at Austin Humane Society. Shelter Volunteer. Why I love dog sitting I have owned dogs all of my life; from chihuahua mixes to white german shepherds, and I love them all. I have worked in a variety of different pet care places including veterinary offices, pet hotels, and animal shelters. I have extensive experience with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I have even read books about positive training methods and calming signals for dogs, which actually work! I let dogs get comfortable with me in their own time and they seem to appreciate that. My experience administering medication I have administered all kinds of medications (eye drops, ear drops, liquid medicines, pills, shots, etc), and I am not shy about giving them. I know that some pets can be reluctant to take their medications, but I always make sure that they are given in the best possible way.

Amelia was a top notch pet sitter for our three kitties! My husband and I felt comfortable with her right away when she came over to meet everyone. Our cats also warmed up to Amelia very quickly! It was amazing to receive pictures and text updates every day of our cats, which set our minds at ease that our beloved furry children were in great hands. We will definitely be hiring Amelia again! Thank you, Amelia! 🙏😻

My girl's sitter fell through last minute and Amelia came to the rescue! She was quick to respond and was happy to come over and hang out with Raya through the weekend. Raya's pretty easy to care for but she does get a little anxious around new dogs so it was great to know that she was in good hands. Amelia sent me updates and generally kept me assured that my girl was safe and happy - even cuddling through a big storm. Thanks!

Amelia was great. I didn't worry about a thing while I was away and when I returned home, my pup was happy and things were as I had left them. Thanks, Amelia!

Amelia was great! She sent us pictures and daily updates of the dogs during her stay. We would definitely use her again in the future.

Amelia has a noticleable passion working with dogs. After getting to know her expeience and background, I'm even more impressed! She's so patient, caring, and energetic everytime. And most importantly, a really hard worker. She'll ensure your pups are well taken care of. I know based on my personal experience! Wouldn't think of choosing anyone else.

His or her favorite treat always helps :) Also, activities your dog enjoys. I want to make sure your dog is as happy as possible while you are away. Any training that I should enforce for you would be helpful as well.
