Availability
I have other work that I do remotely with a flexible schedule meaning that I can work from your home during my time with your pet and take lots of breaks for walkies and cuddles.

About Amy D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide attentive and compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. This includes feeding them on schedule, refreshing water, and maintaining a clean environment. I ensure they get exercise, playtime, and affection while following any specific instructions from the owner. For dogs, I take them on walks suited to their energy levels, and for cats or small pets, I engage them with toys and enrichment activities. I respect the pet’s routine to minimize stress and keep them happy while their owners are away. Safety is always my priority, and I monitor their well-being closely.
Information Amy D. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a pet, I like to know their routine, dietary needs, medical conditions, and any behavioral quirks. It’s important to understand their comfort levels with strangers, other animals, and new environments. I also ask about their favorite activities, preferred walking routes, and any anxieties or fears they may have. Knowing their energy level helps me plan appropriate exercise and stimulation. Emergency contact information and vet details are essential in case of any issues. The more I know, the better I can provide a safe, comfortable, and fun experience for the pet
A typical day
A typical day starts with feeding, followed by a walk or play session to keep pets active and engaged. Depending on their preferences, we may go on a sniffari-style walk, play fetch, or enjoy puzzle toys for mental stimulation. If they love cuddles, we’ll spend time relaxing together. Throughout the day, I ensure they get potty breaks, fresh water, and companionship. I also send updates and photos to the owner for peace of mind. In the evening, I wind things down with another walk or some quiet time before bedtime.

Pet care experience
I am ready to treat your dog like a member of my family. I want to do everything I can to provide love, care, exercise and consistency your dog needs to be happy and comfortable. I know that every pet is unique and I look forward to learning the unique personalities and traits that make each pet special. I pride myself on respect, patience and consistency which are the foundation of any relationship with pets and owners. I look forward to meeting and getting to know your best friend. I am familiar with a variety of training and dog behaviour techniques and want to provide care that is consistent with each family.

Reviews
Amy is fantastic with my dogs. She is very caring, and definitely trust worthy with your pets. Amy goes above and beyond to take the pups on new adventures, and is great with keeping with their routines. Not to mention when I surprised her with a new addition, she was not only thrilled to have two to walk, but is so great with his puppy antics. My pups love Amy and yours will too!
Very happy with Amy’s approach and responsiveness. I look forward to seeing the daily pics of her love and care of my fur babies.
Amy was wonderful! We book her again to watch Sophie.
