Care for all pets—work from home

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Amy, I have a full-time remote job as a website author, but my passion has always been with animals. Whether it was summers spent at horse camp, weekends spent dog and chicken sitting, or the usual weekday of pet sitting and fostering dogs and kittens, I have always found a way to nurture my love for animals. Over the last three years I have fostered 12 dogs and 3 cats through second hand hounds and to my parents surprise, successfully adopted them all out (they were convinced I would cave and eventually adapt one of my fosters myself lol). I used this app when I used to be able to board pets at my own home, but have since gotten married and have sold my home and moved in with my in-laws as my husband and I work on building our future home on a plot of land we bought in Annandale. While we have two pups ourselves, a 5 year old pit/cattle dog mix and a 2 year old German shepherd/husky mix, we are in a position where my in-laws can look after them while we come look after your animals!

Amy loves dogs and has 2 of her own which meant our dog would always have company. She was easy to work with in scheduling drop off and pick up. We will certainly use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I will communicate with you to understand and match how you care for your animals in your own home. Whether it is keeping an eye on your dog in a fenced-in backyard, or making sure to leash before letting them out, I will be asking you how your pet is used to being handled and how you best keep them safe throughout the day.

Information Amy G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have any fear-based aggression or anxiety I should be aware of, or if there are any medical needs/medication that will need to be given.

A typical day

Depending on your pet, I will look to you to let me know how they usually spend their days to make sure I am giving them that same amount of attention in care. When I’m home with my own dogs, I usually have one on each side of me on the couch while I work and periodically take breaks to let them play outside. After work, we like to go for a long walk. Since I do have a German shepherd/husky mix, I am used to having a dog that needs more mental and physical stimulation.
