Fun & Fantastic Pet Care!!!!

Pet care experience

Hello! Thanks for considering me to care for your best bud(s), at my place or yours! I hope we can meet and develop trust. I'm a former vet tech from years ago (so I have animal handling skills, first aid, etc.), but now I do sustainability consulting from my home office in Nelson County. My home is on about 5 acres, and a large swath of that is fenced, giving plenty of great space for zooms, lounging in the shade, and fetching. I do have 2 pets already, who are both VERY lovely and friendly. My dog Sylvie is a 3 year old, spayed and vaccinated, Pyrenees/Lab and she is exceptionally well-mannered and does very well with all dogs and cats. She really would love to have a pal stay over occasionally! My cat Finley is much the same, neutered and vaccinated, 1 1/2 years old and outgoing, confident and friendly indoor/outdoor cat. I keep a nice home, and can often be found puttering in the garden with my buddies, hiking, or working on some house projects. Please reach out if you need someone to give your pets some extra care! I ask that your buddy be up to date on age-appropriate vaccines AND flea/tick treatment.

Amy was a great pet sitter, she was attentive and really listened to my thoughts and where we are with our puppy. Sue had toys available for him and my pup enjoyed playing with her lab. Looking forward to our next daycare day.

I left my dog with Amy for a weekend, and even though Lana can be a little anxious at first, she fit right in with Amy and Sylvie. Amy provided frequent updates and pictures to reassure me Lana was doing well. It’s evident Amy truly cares for the dogs she watches. She also has a great space for the doggies to play.

I can’t think of anyone I would trust more with my cat and dog. She is one of the most responsible people I know when it comes to care of animals.
