Safety, trust & environment

My main goal is to provide the best care for your pet while I am with them, right after that my goal is to make you both feel as comfortable as possible throughout the whole process. I understand giving someone access to your home and loved one can be nerve wracking but I treat every home with the utmost respect. I am there to care for the pet and spend my time and attention ONLY on them and the things needed to provide that care.

Information Amy J. would like to know about your pet

Any special information about your pet ahead of time is great! That being said, I ALWAYS hope to do a meet and greet before a first sit where I am able to ask questions and get a good run down of the pet/pets needs and routine. Of course feel free to ask any questions you may have initially!

A typical day

I love spending my visits doing exactly what the pet wants to be doing, if that means handling the necessary tasks, (feeding or medication) and then either a potty break and cuddling on the couch for awhile giving lots of pets and loving or a nice long walk and running/playing in the backyard. I strive to give the pet/pets the most positive interaction each visit!

Pets

Every animal deserves the best care

Pet care experience

I have taken care of animals my entire life. Growing up we always had dogs and cats which I continued into my adulthood. I have a love and comfortability with animals that makes working with them a treat! I have raised many from puppies/kittens to old age and even cared for a few since birth when their mother was unable to do so. More recently I began working with other people’s pets which has given me insight and experience of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes and temperaments. I am certified in pet CPR and First Aide and I am very patient and understand that every animal is different and my goal will always be to win them over so anytime I am with them, they are as excited to see me as I am them. Not matter how long that takes! I also hope to make the pet parents feel as comfortable as possible and follow their routine for their pets as closely as possible. I have worked with many elderly pets that sometimes can require a little extra care in their routine and am comfortable giving oral medications, creams (for anywhere needed on the pet) I am also comfortable and familiar with giving insulin shots and things of those nature!

Amy was great and our 2 dogs were very well cared for. Amy communicated with us, was quick to respond, and left our home just as she found it. We plan on using her again next month.

Amy is the best. She is so reliable and her communication is on point. She is very responsive and loves the animals. I will definitely be using her again.

Amy is so caring! The cats are always happy when we return from a trip, and all their rather complex care is done well! We will definitely have Amy care for our cats when we need a kitty sitter again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
