Highlights
Pet care experience
When your friend needs a friend!
Pet owner, pet lover! I have been sitting for friends and family since I was a teen. I also grew up around large dogs. I adopted a staffy mix in 2014 and we had 9 great years together before she passed. I’m not ready to adopt again, so until then, I’d like to help others. I’ve also had a few cats in the past and currently have 2! They are both tolerant of dogs and if they are uncomfortable, they will typically leave the room. My friends will bring their dogs when they visit me and my cats do well. I don’t have a yard per se but there is a lot of open space for frequent walks/potty breaks. My apartment complex is very pet-friendly. I am on the 2nd floor, so there are 2 sets of steps that may make it hard for older dogs. I often do overnights and stay with pets in their own home to maximize their comfort and keep their routines intact. I’m flexible based on your individual needs. One of my interests is in animal behavior. I have read many books (my favorites are from Patricia B. McConnell) My philosophy is we are training everyday. Consistency is important to me and for them, so I will ask many questions during the meet and greet stage to understand their needs and know how to best support you both. I look forward to meeting you both!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
There are few that I have known that care for pets the way Amy cares for pets. She treats each animal like it were her own. She is respectful, playful, and loving towards them. I do not trust many people to care for my dog, but I trust Amy. Likewise, my dog does not trust many people, but she trusts Amy. That's the biggest testimonial any could ask for.

Schedule
I’m currently doing odd jobs while I search for a full time job. I anticipate having a few days of availability each week where I will be home and able to support a boarder.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of open space to walk, though no fenced yard. I also have 2 cats that do well tolerating dog visitors. I have room to set up a crate if they are crate-trained. But most of time can play or hangout wherever while I’m home. Pets are allowed on the furniture and will be supervised. The litter boxes are in the main living space, but are scooped immediately as to avoid unwanted “snacking”.
