Variety of care and very passionate

Pet care experience

*Booming Doggy Daycare since January 2019!* Aptly named Never Board Again!! 10+ regular weekly clients, and I'd love to have your precious pup join my pack of besties! They'll come home dogged out and will thank you for letting them come back again and again. At this point, I've been running my own professional Petcare business for 3 years, and Petsitting for 5! I have a background in Psychology and have very high behavioral standards for the pups staying with me, including calmness - especially when I leave the house; heeding commands - especially "come" when called as they go in and out from the backyard and basement as needed; and manners during playtime - to ensure every pup feels and is truly safe and comfortable. I'm very passionate about animals in general. For four years I managed my own weekly shift at a local animal shelter, so it's clear I'm not shy of any unpleasant cleaning and I even have experience administering medicine. It's my pleasure to care for animals, and each week I made sure to give a little love to every single animal there. I can't wait to meet yours! Starting at a young age, I was basically the sole caretaker of my family's huge Golden Retriever from 7th grade to 11th, walking him every day, teaching him tricks--I can even handle big dogs like that in the bathtub!--until my step-dad took him from me in the separation. I was able to take care of my sister's two Vizslas through college, loving them like they were my own. Finally in January of 2020 I adopted an incredible dog of my own, and we've been inseparable ever since.

Amy was absolutely amazing with our dogs! This was my first time using the Rover app and Amy was very professional and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs in her care. She sent pictures every day and kept me very up-to-date with anything we may have needed. I highly recommend her!!

Amy is an absolute gem! She took such good care of my pup Luke, kept me updated with texts and pictures throughout, and showed up on time for both pickup and drop off! I really can’t say enough about Amy…it is obvious that she genuinely cares for animals and loves what she does and I will definitely have her watch my best buddy Luke again! Thank you so much Amy…Luke thanks you too!

Amy was wonderful to our two Labs! She was very cognizant of our dogs quirks and special needs, and sent us pics and videos often! We will definitely be using Amy again!

Amy was absolutely wonderful!! I got updates on my pups, and they always looked happy. Much better than taking the dogs to the kennel. I was nervous at first trying this app but 10/10 would recommend Amy to family and friends. The dogs came home happy and tired.

Safety, trust & environment

The fenced backyard they can run around in is 4500 sq. ft. and we installed artificial turf in the fall of 2020! For at least several hours and up to the majority of the day, the pups get to spend time out there under my close supervision! There is a half-finished basement accessible from the yard with plenty of room to play indoors, keep warm/cool depending on the season, and with lounge chairs, couches, and beds. I have an extensive mobile gate system for any separation needs, and I utilize it to provide a moderately spacious area with either a couch or a chair and doggy bed for each pup to be comfortable and safe whenever I have to leave the house. I have two kennels available as well, but I usually ask for theirs to be brought with them if you frequently use a kennel. The TV can be seen from the whole basement, and I leave it on to help provide some distraction, engagement, and sudden noise reduction when they're alone. Filtered water is provided in all areas of the house and space. If they love toys, there are a ton of those here too!

Information Amy L. would like to know about your pet

I can't wait to meet your dog, and all I would want to know is how to best love and care for them! I.e. all of their unique quirks, how they tend to interact with other dogs,, any specific meal particularity, special needs items or medications or allergies, where they stay when you leave the house as well as for bedtime. I do charge Puppy Fees for the following items: *Potty-training issues/Marking **Un-altered monitoring/Humping ***Minor & non-minor aggression issues/Toy-aggression ****Separation Anxiety (usually the highest fee due to time commitment)

A typical day

I love parks, so let me know if your dog has a favorite and we'll spend some time there. If your dog is adventurous, we could even go on a hike or swimming together! Don't hesitate to schedule and Adventure with me during their stay!
