Everyone knows I’m a huge animal lover, especially cats and dogs. I look forward to being with them and are a welcomed part of my day. I have a flexible job where I primarily work from home tutoring and advocating for children with disabilities, so I will have the capacity to tend to all of your pets’ needs throughout the day and night. I’m well versed in giving medications to cats and dogs, tending to bandages, dietary specifications, mobility needs, etc. through my experience volunteering at the Humane Society, PetHaven and No Dogs Left Behind and with my own pets. I’m also trained in cat and dog behaviors and have trained many dogs and even a few cats! All of these things are normal parts of my life and look forward to expanding that to provide the highest quality care and love for your pet, as though it was my own.

Safety, trust & environment
I make sure pets receive the best, safest care. We have three doors getting into the front and two doors to the back plus a fully-fenced in yard for them to play in. My previous dog was part Beagle so she tested the fence like a velociraptor and it kept her in. There are screens on all the windows and cats are provided their own bedroom equipped with a cat tree and toys. I also have toys, beds and treats for both cats and dogs as long as you, the owner approves of course. I’m happy to brush as much as you/they want. My house is spacious enough for them to get exercise even while inside. I’ve read and done trainings in dog and cat behavior, so I really follow their lead to make sure they feel happy and safe. On walks I make sure to give them time to smell and explore.
Home
Information Amy L. would like to know about your pet
For boarding only, I have pet-savvy 7 and 3 year-old daughters, so please let me know how your pet is with children for boarding. I currently foster cats and dogs on and off but the cats have their own floor of the house and can enter the dog floor if they choose to through a gate. I accept a maximum of 2 dogs at a time.
A typical day
I love to walk-around my neighborhood. I live near Lake of the Isles which has plenty of great smells for them! I’m also close to Urban Tails Pet Supply which depending on the dog, can be fun to walk to. Dogs also love our backyard. My house is also spacious enough to play fetch, tug-of-war and belly rubs and cuddles.

Reviews
Amy was amazing with my two cats! They’re usually pretty shy but warmed up to her quickly. She’s great at communication and sends many photos of the kitties!
Amy was a phenomenal cat sitter for our two cats! Her communication was excellent and we couldn't have felt more comfortable being away. We will certainly be hiring her again!
Amy was wonderful and very attentive to the kitties and always made sure to play with them a lot and send great pictures. She also even brought over some of her own food to help tide us over cuz ours ran out.
Kitties were well taken care of! Full bellies and lots of pets were had
