My primary work is seasonal pulling me out-of-town during the spring & fall months. When I'm home, I fill my days with caring and nurturing pets which is a genuine passion of mine. This also allows for a flexible schedule to suit the needs of your beloved family member. This will also provide me to provide them the attention and time needed to make sure they feel loved, safe, and happy.

Loving care when you’re not there

Pet care experience

Upon moving to the Tampa Bay Area I got involved with being the reliable, caring, loving neighborhood dog sitter. Then I felt compiled to get involved with a local dog rescue to care as a foster mama. I've had 13+ dogs in my care that ranged from 10 days-18 months in my care over the past few years. And now, I'm opening my home up to those seeking a nurturing person to care for my individual pet needs. Or offering the convenience of coming to your home to care for your dog(s) or cat(s) as a drop-in visit or dog walking option. Each visit will be filled with love & undivided attention to your fur baby/ies.

I HIGHLY recommend Amy! She accepted a very last-minute booking and was super easy to coordinate with. She sent pictures throughout the booking and I could tell my pup felt right at home with her! I’ll be using her again for future trips. Thank you, Amy! :)

Amy is fantastic - incredibly reliable, kind and wonderful to work with. My dog looks forward to every walk and visit with her, and I can always count that Charlie will be well cared for when she is with him. I recently had a family emergency that involved last minute additional support and Amy graciously stepped up to accommodate the situation while I was away. I am so grateful!

Amy was fantastic! This was our first time boarding our senior dog and she put our minds at ease. She was very attentive to our instructions and provided many updates on our boy throughout his stay with her.
