Information Ami Y. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your animal has any issues that might catch me off guard, for instance cat with asthma, or dog with allergies, so I don't think its an emergency. If your dog gets excited over other dogs that we might see on a walk, let me know what the best protocol will be for you pet in the situation.

A typical day

I love to play and snuggle with animals, depending on what they need and what their body language is telling me. I always make sure to understand the pets comfort level when it comes to play and touch.

Go-to pet sitter for friends!

Pet care experience

I have boarded many dogs, big and small in my home and absolutely love their company. I have also taken care of many cats my whole life and love playing with them too :) I am comfortable with feeding, Cleaning litter, taking walks and administrating medicine if necessary. Do note: for boarding clients - I live on the top floor, 3 flights of stairs, so if your dog has issues with stairs I might not be a good match.

Ami was kind and attentive from the moment we met her. She was so sweet with my dog, and right away she gave me a sense of peace and trust. She kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos.
