Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Availability

I work fully remote (part-time) with a flexible schedule, which means pet care fits easily into any part of my day. I'm not squeezing walks in between a 9 to 5 or rushing to jump back into a meeting. I can genuinely adapt to what your dog needs and take all the time they need for extra belly rubs. I have my own car, so I can reach clients across a wide area reliably and on time, regardless of weather or transit issues. Last-minute requests and schedule changes are usually not a problem.

Safety, trust & environment

When I'm caring for a pet in your home, my priority is keeping things calm, consistent, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow the owner's instructions closely (such as feeding times, walking routes, off-limit areas, any quirks or phobias your pet has) because familiar routines reduce stress for animals and build trust quickly. I'm attentive to safety on walks: I keep dogs on leash, pay attention to their reactions to other dogs and people, and don't take risks. I'll always communicate with you — a quick update or photo so you know your pet is doing well. Your home and your pet are treated with genuine care and respect.

Information Amelia W. would like to know about your pet

Please share anything that helps me take the best care of your dog (favorite toys, quirks, commands they know, or things that stress them out). I work best with dogs who are friendly with people and other dogs and have no aggressive behaviors, so we can have a relaxed, happy time.

A typical day

Every dog is different, so I follow their lead, but a typical day includes at least one good AM walk for potty time, some outdoor sniff time, and plenty of attention. For playful dogs I'll bring a ball or tug toy; for mellower ones, a slow neighborhood explore and some couch time does the trick.

Pet care experience

Dogs have been part of my life since before I could walk! I grew up in a home with dachshunds, pugs, labs, and lovable mutts (not to mention guinea pigs, hamsters, lizards, fish and even a duck at one point), which means I've had hands-on experience with a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and care needs from a very young age. Feeding schedules, daily walks, baths, brushing, and basic training were just part of growing up. At home, I help my roommate to care for a bichon and a dachshund. Beyond my own household, I've regularly cared for family and friends' dogs and cats, fitting into their routines seamlessly and keeping their pets comfortable and happy. I'm confident with both high-energy dogs that need a good long walk and lower-key companions who just want company and consistency. What sets me apart: dogs have simply always been part of my world. I'm easy-going, calm, and genuinely attentive. I'm generally a homebody so pets in my care get attentive and consistent company.

Amelia is great! She’s been prompt and great, we had some issues with the building elevator etc and was ready to accommodate and make sure my pup was taken care of. I couldn’t recommend her more, she’s been great and I look forward to rebooking with her in the future 🙂

Amelia is my first choice to care for Duke when I’m away. She’s formed a real bond with my senior pup and he feels totally comfortable with her while I’m away. Couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for my best friend!
