Educator off for the summer!
Pet care experience
I am home full-time in the summer, as I am a teacher during the year. I have a lot of experience with pets as I personally have always had a dog of my own. I also have a cat and have had ferrets in the past as well. My experience with dogs includes special needs dogs. I have cared for dogs that require a wheelchair as well as a visually impaired dog. I am available midday to walk or play with your pets while you work during the summer!
Reviews
really nice and did an amazing job with my husky!
I was seeking someone to watch my dog Pixie when I went away for a. Ou ole of days because my regular dog kennel was full. A friend recommended Amy and she said yes right away. Pixie takes medicine and she was will to give her the medicine. Well I expected her to come to my house twice a day to feed her and let her out. Not only did she do that but went beyond the instructions I left for her. She took Pixie to her house and let her stay overnight. She got to play outside in the fenced in back yard and Pixie got to pay with her dog as well. Amy texted me a picture of Pixie sleeping on her coach. But here is the real ice breaker that let me know Amy has a love for dogs. Amy and her husband let Pixie sleep with them at night. She could have just left Pixie at the house but she thought it would be better if Pixie went home with her so she wouldn't be lonely. Pixie was much happier with Amy then she would have ever been at the kennel. Pixie didn't even miss us. She is a five star dog sitter and would recommend her to anyone.
Amy is such an animal lover! She watches my fur baby often. She will even stop over to walk him when she is close by and knows he has been home alone. He is treated like a member of her own family. She makes sure he gets plenty of play time and cuddle time!

I would be very attentive to your wishes for your pets at your home. I am comfortable walking one or two dogs at a time, generally. I always try to leave other's homes the way I found them if not better. I am also happy to drive your dog to a trail to walk or something like that.
Information Amy P. would like to know about your pet
I think it is very important to know the temperament of a dog and how they like to be greeted. I like to know what they think of strangers and if they have a gender preference. If a dog jumps is also good to know - my dog jumps but I am good at keeping him down.
A typical day
My favorite place to walk dogs is the Benton Trail. I am an active person myself and would love to run around a yard with dogs and play fetch or anything like that.
