Reliable, easy-going animal lover
Pet care experience
I have dog and cat-sat for overnight periods up to three weeks. I have looked after several foster kittens at a time and am familiar with various methods of feeding, as well as looking for and discouraging hunting behaviors. Through my pet-sitting experiences and as a previous owner of dogs and cats I am more than comfortable with cleaning up waste, feeding, administering ear medication/oral medication, and putting on harnesses/muzzles/clothing. I am very familiar with the needs of dogs with arthritis and know how to massage joints/encourage blood flow and heat when necessary. I am especially attentive with anxious dogs as I've had two border collies, and am well aware of the subtle signs of anxiety they express and what calms them. I am an avid learner and enjoy having new experiences or adding to my collection of knowledge. I will always be patient and understanding with a dog and adjust to match their pace, walking and otherwise.
Reviews
Amelia was fantastic! Whitman loved hanging out with her for the weekend, and I loved all the communication she sent each day! It helped with how much we missed him. She did a great job despite Whitman having restrictions because he was six weeks out of ACL surgery.
Amelia was great! She walked my dogs and was very affectionate. Will definitely use her again.
Amelia does a great job with our three puppies. They are a handful but Amelia has it handled with ease.
This was our second time booking Amelia to house and dog sit. We were gone for a week and she took excellent care of everything! Lots of pics and updates. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house.

I do not live in an apartment that allows dogs, but would love to spend more time with a furry companion through walking and house sitting.

I work full-time, however I am off work earlier than most. I am free on the weekends all day, and during the week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays after 2:30pm. I am looking for regular clients, however I would more than welcome one-time opportunities.
