Because I work from home full-time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine! Your pup won't be left alone for long stretches. My schedule allows me to easily step away for regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and mid-day leg stretchers. I naturally start and end my days with outdoor walks or hikes, so keeping your pet active, engaged, and perfectly on their normal home schedule is a natural part of my day.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities when staying in your home. Because I have years of experience managing multi-dog households and administering medications, I am naturally highly attentive to a pet's subtle body language, stress levels, and health needs. When caring for your pets in their own environment, I focus on three core principles: Routine Continuity: I match their exact feeding, potty, and medication schedules so they experience zero disruption while you are away. Home Security & Oversight: Since I work from home, I am there the vast majority of the day. Whenever I do need to step out for errands, I ensure all pets are safely secured according to your preferences (crating, specific rooms, etc.), doors are locked, and your home is fully respected. Constant Communication: I love sending daily photo updates and quick text check-ins so you never have to wonder how your babies are doing. You’ll have total peace of mind knowing they are getting tons of cuddles, safe outdoor time, and professional-level supervision.

Information Amy P. would like to know about your pet

To ensure I can provide the safest and most comfortable care for your pet, it is incredibly helpful to know a few details ahead of time: Health & Medications: Please share any specific medical conditions, dietary restrictions, or detailed instructions for administering medications. Triggers & Anxieties: Does your dog get nervous around storms, loud noises, or specific types of external stimuli? Are they reactive on a leash when seeing other dogs or wildlife? Behavioral Quirks: Let me know if they have any resource-guarding habits (with toys or food), separation anxiety, or unique quirks like being an escape artist or a counter-surfer. Home Routine: A quick breakdown of their usual crate training routine, bathroom schedule, and where they are accustomed to sleeping at night helps me keep their environment completely seamless. I love setting up a quick Meet & Greet beforehand so we can make sure it’s a perfect match for everyone!

A typical day

A typical day with me is structured around your pet's comfort, plenty of attention, and tailored fun! Because I work from home, our day has a wonderful, predictable rhythm. A Look at Our Day: Morning: We start early with a fresh breakfast and any necessary morning medications. Once breakfast digests, we head out for a crisp morning walk to kick off the day with some fresh air. Mid-Day: While I work, your pet will be right by my side. Pups get regular backyard potty breaks, gentle leg-stretchers, and a fun interactive playtime session (like fetching in the yard or a puzzle toy game) to break up the afternoon. Evening: After dinner, it's time for our main adventure! We'll head out for a longer walk or a hike to burn off any remaining energy. Nighttime: We wind down the evening with winding-down cuddles on the couch, brushing (if they like it), and plenty of belly rubs before bed. The Fun Activities We'll Do: Customized Adventures: For high-energy dogs or nature lovers, I love going on scenic hikes or brisk trail walks. If your dog prefers a slower pace, we will do a sniff-ari—a leisurely neighborhood stroll where they get to take their time smelling everything! Brain Games & Play: I love keeping dogs mentally sharp with interactive games like hide-and-seek with their favorite toys or gentle training reinforcement. Tons of Cuddles: For the couch potatoes and cuddlers, I provide endless affection, head scratches, and companionship so they never feel lonely.

Pet care experience

People tend to call me a modern-day Snow White because I have an absolute passion for all animals! I’ve been a dedicated dog owner most of my life, and at one point, I even successfully managed a pack of 5 dogs at one time. Very little phases me, and I know exactly what it takes to keep a multi-pet environment safe, calm, and happy. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own children. Because I work from home full-time, your pets will receive continuous supervision, structure, and a baseline of companionship throughout the day. Why Choose Me? Specialized Care & Meds: Fully experienced and comfortable administering oral medications, managing strict health routines, and caring for senior pets. Behavioral Comfort: I have a background in basic training techniques and know how to naturally handle high-energy pups, as well as rescue dogs dealing with anxiety or timidity. Active Lifestyle: I love the outdoors, walking, and hiking. If your dog thrives on outdoor adventures, they will have a built-in hiking buddy with me! All Breeds Welcome: From tiny Shih Tzu terriers to powerful Pit Bulls, I love and respect all breeds. My Setting & Setup I specialize in House Sitting (care in your home). I prefer staying at client homes because I want to ensure your pets stay in their most comfortable, familiar environment while keeping their usual routines completely uninterrupted. I am available for overnight stays across the Louisville area and its surrounding outskirts—whether you need me for a single night or an extended vacation.
