Energetic animal lover/trainer

Pet care experience

In elementary school I ran a pet sitting/dog walking business that lasted successfully through my 27 years living in Port Perry. Throughout this time, I also lived in Quebec for 4 years while completing my university degree. Never the less, continuing to babysit animals of all types was a must and I’ve yet to stop. I recently moved from living in Nepean for over a year.. to Courtice! I’m very familiar with the area absolutely love to socialize! I’m quite adjusted to Rover and very keen to build a solid client base in the GTA area.

Amy pet/house sit our dog and cat many times and we were never disappointed. Our pets loved Amy the second they met her. Amy is very friendly, sweet and has a great attitude with a genuine passion for animals. While we were away, she provided us with updates/pictures and upon every return the pets were happy and the house was spotless. We had no hesitations leaving our pets with Amy and we would highly recommend to anyone.

Amy took care of our big boy, 95 ln Sheepadoodle, Wagz. She was absolutely fabulous! Prepared and stayed in touch. We would highly recommend Amy!

Amy was great- very patient, loving and caring with my dog who isn't great with any other animals. She has a sweet personality and a love for all animals. I felt at ease leaving my dog with her, my first time ever hiring a sitter, through Rover. I would highly recommend her!!

Willow had a fantastic time with Amy. We received photos and a video and she seemed to be very comfortable with Amy. We would definitely recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I can help host your happy fluff friend in your house, condo or apartment and will take into consideration how you interact with them and/or where you prefer them to be walked. Having a large pet friendly Honda Pilot allows me to take your pup for walks in new areas if cleared by you. Cleanliness and organization are strong traits of mine that will translate into your booking. I will always leave your place as clean as it was when you leave, or cleaner! I take pride in putting the extra effort into my services to keep your place immaculate during a stay.

Information Amy G. would like to know about your pet

If there are any concerns, needs or special requirements your dog has, it shouldn’t be a problem to deal with upon speaking. I have my full falconry licence and work with birds of prey which are extremely sensitive to any kind of human contact, so I have a phenomenal handle on reading animals. Caring, keeping them safe and ensuring they are comfortable is my top priority, always. I’m also a Type 1 Diabetic so self-administer my own insulin. Any kind of medication your pet needs is no bother - as long as I am aware of how your dog / pet could react. Please feel free to message me about any above related content, I’m always willing to learn how to better suit owners’ needs.

A typical day

We have a ton of green parks around Courtice, Oshawa and the GTA in general. We could go on walks while keeping your dogs’ favourite toy nearby for comfort, whatever works for your pup! I’ll wonder off with your pooch to where ever their sniffer feels (as long as it’s safe, of course!). I love running around with dogs and ensuring I keep them at a healthy energy level as per their needs (hyper dog vs. older or disabled dog). I’ve got a box of toys and spare leashes prepared for any situation!

I’ve recently situated into a new full time job in Courtice this April (8am-5pm Monday to Friday). Regardless, I’ll always have plenty of time to attend to sitting, walking or drop in visits with your pets. Flexibility is what I’m know for, time wise and also being able to work with reptiles, birds, fish etc. Weekends can be easily accommodated to your needs.
