Trainer & structured, healthy play!
Pet care experience
I am proud to exclusively work with pets. I am a Rover sitter full-time and train dogs part time. That's a lot of dog!! I am officially certified in pet first aid. I will happily provide a copy of my certification upon request. Please feel free to follow me on my socials: Facebook: Daphne’s Play-Cations TikTok: @playcation.yyc Instagram: @ playcation.yyc I am working towards becoming a certified dog trainer! I have done my mentorship under trainers across North America, so I have the experience you want for handling your dog! If you have another pet in your home, such as a cat, bird, or even snake, I will be more than happy to come on over and take care of them. I will not only walk and play with your dog, but train them too. I work together with you to find out what training skills and techniques will work best. I will follow your wishes in how you choose to train! I have a very large, fully fenced in yard your your pup to run around with my two very friendly dogs. We have lots of water bowls, and even a fountain (we love to pamper). We have beds all around for the pups (three in the living room, one+ a futon in the office, one+ the human bed in the bedroom) to ensure comfort wherever the pup likes. We have extra crates to use incase your dog needs to be crated if/when we leave the home. I also have a pet friendly first aid kit in the event of an accident, but luckily all I’ve need to use it for has been a couple bumps her and there! Pet care is more than my passion, it is what I do full time! I’m available for walks, boarding, daycare, and drop ins whenever you need! Walks/ drop-ins: nearly any community in the Deep South will be serviced! If you’re not sure, please ask. I provide an off leash pack walk Monday- Friday mid day, frequenting auburn bay dog park and Sue Higgins for swimming! If you’re interested in this service, please be aware that it is the cost of an hour long walk ($32) and your pup is with me for up to four hours including pickup and drop off. Meet and greets: I offer complimentary meet and greets for all of my services (one per service, if you’d like more, we can arrange that as a drop on at a reduced price). They are free to make sure everyone involved is a good fit. Please be aware that Rover unfortunately will not cover any incidents that happen during these, however I’ve only once had an issue during a meet and greet. I do what I can to make sure everyone stays SAFE. That being said, because Rover will not cover my pets should anything happen (during a meet and greet or a booking), I do request that if your dog instigates an altercation with mine, that you pay for my vet bills if they’re required. Boarding: puppies under 7 months will be crated while I cannot directly supervise them. Dogs with severe separation anxiety will be subject to an extra fee known as “constant care”. This is subject to an extra fee, because I will not be taking any clients outside of the home, and I will stay home with your pup 100% of the time during their stay. Dogs are supervised 100% of the time while outside- this is to prevent escapes, altercations, and potential injuries (such as heat or cold) Coming soon: I will be providing Tractiv dog trackers for all boarders and off leash walkers for the duration of their stay. Owners will get a link to check in on their pups! I have intake forms that I require to be filled out before meet and greets, this is so I have your information on file for any future bookings, no matter how far out they are! If you have any other questions regarding my policies, please do not hesitate to ask.
Reviews
Amelia is absolutely wonderful with my two senior kitties. One is an 18 yo sick kitty that needs medicine twice a day and she has taken such good care of her twice now while we were away for a longer period of time. She makes sure they are both fed and have clean water and litter. She sends me pictures of them each time she sees them and gives me updates so I can relax knowing they’re in good hands. She is our go to pet caretaker and we are so happy we found her! Highly recommended!
Amelia is great with my pup who has some anxiety and is very energetic! He comes back tired and happy!
Amelia was great! Very happy with the week she spent looking after our cat! Thanks!
Amelia was lovely. Reliable, on time, persistent when our cat didn't want to take his shot. Appreciate her patience, and highly recommend.

Home
Information Amelia T. would like to know about your pet
Do they have any allergies? Are they food aggressive? How are they with other dogs/ animals? Are there any other triggers I should be aware of? I have a boarding intake form I require all owners to fill out before we can set up a meet and greet- so please be prepared for that.
A typical day
We have a large backyard for lots of play time (dependant on the weather), and tonnes of toys to play with while inside. I have puzzle toys, kongs, and other enrichment toys to keep those pups tired and happy. Please let me know if your pup has displayed resource guarding at all, and over what, so I know how to best ensure everyone is safe during your pet’s stay! This includes their bed, toys, food, people, ect.
