Pet care experience
Engineer in water resources. My husband and I are very active adults and love to do outside things together (just missing the dogs!) We rent out our home to roommates, who have their own schedules, but are sometimes present during pet sitting. I grew up near Everett, WA with a golden retriever/‘stealer’, several house kitties, and many other pets (including livestock, reptiles, fish). I do have some exposure to working dogs (think clickers, birding, etc.) but have not yet had the opportunity to raise one from a pup. I have been a reliable house sitter on Care for several years and am also exceptional with plants & children. I pride myself in being an active pet sitter who can give special attention to each animal, making them feel at ease in their family’s absence. Special diets are easy for me to accommodate as I am a great cook/medicine administerer with professional kitchen experience & ample autoimmune health knowledge. I can’t wait to love on your beloved furry friend!
Reviews
Amy is a reliable and seasoned caretaker for all kinds of animals. I have witnessed the special bond she has with both her own cat and her family's dog. She is exceedingly capable of looking after livestock and horses, as well as meticulously caring for your garden. Trust me when I say that you couldn't find a more qualified candidate to tend to your pets!

Information Amy D. would like to know about your pet
We have 2 friendly cats (one with special needs) who are socialized with dogs, but it would be a good idea to have them meet beforehand, especially to make sure the blind tripod will be safe with your pet.
A typical day
Dearest Doggo, I’m a park-trail-water-places aficionado! We can jog your nearest park or trail, lope around the sidewalked-block, or binge-watch a show together if holding down the floor is more your speed. If you’re not feeling well, I know just the thing to make you feel better. You’ll also find I have a great frisbee arm & know the best places to go swimming. You may even get to learn some new clicker tricks together with our kitties! Love, Amy

Availability
I typically get up around 4 to make it rowing practice by 5. I also have time from around 7:30-8 to make sure everyone has had potty and play time before I drive to work. My work is somewhat flexible, so evenings vary. But I like to spend time with each pet after unpacking & eat dinner “together”.
