Home full time, vet tech graduate

Pet care experience

Assuming your pet has all vaccines, as mine do, we can certainly find a place to welcome your friend...or stop by your house to visit! I have available references for both pet and house sitting. There aren't many animals we don't already have! About this sitter: I am an experienced pet and house sitter. I have worked as a vet tech for many years and have had a life long love of animals! Prefer them to humans almost any day! I can do home visits and treat with medicines if needed. Why I love dog sitting I was born and raised with dogs! Never had less than 2 at a time. I've had everything from small Peke-a-poos to a timber wolf/dog hybrid. I have experience with all breeds as I work as a veterinary technician. Cats are welcome too, with proper vaccines! Meet my pets Dogs, cats, snake, guinea pigs, etc About my yard I have over an acre of property, with at least 1/3 of it enclosed with a 6 foot fence. I have a door that opens directly from the house to the dog yard, so there is no risk of getting loose. There are no trees IN the fenced yard, but there is a shed and a couple of dog houses in it. We have goats and chickens also, but they can be kept separate from your dogs, if necessary. My experience administering medication Yes, I can give meds and am very comfortable administering most any kind. I would simply ask for clear instructions and for the method you find works best for your pet.

What a relief to know My little Pancho was well, safe,and happy while I pursued necessary business 200 miles away. I will definitely call upon Amy as Rover again. Any is warm and friendly and I felt at ease and comfortable immediately.

Amy is very accommodating. My dogs took a liking to her right away and they stayed with her for the afternoon. They were well-taken care of and they enjoyed their stay. I would definitely recommend Amy for anyone needing a pet sitter in the Trinidad area.

Information Amy R. would like to know about your pet

I want to be sure your pet is up to date on all vaccines, as mine are. I would simply ask for any personality traits you could give me to help make it's stay...or my visit...be as comfortable as possible for all. I welcome and love all breeds of dogs and only ask for fair warning if there could be any aggression issues.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I live near 2 schools and have an out of the way neighborhood behind my property. I also grew up with 100+ acres of fruit orchards and can bring them there for a more active play/run time. We have sidewalks all around my house and neighboring streets. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Generally, I try to mimic what your pet is used to. As I have 2 dogs of my own, both with crates, I would either request you bring your animal's crate or allow your dog to sleep in one of ours as needed or when I might have to leave the house for errands, etc. I do have cats in the house, so that may be a deciding factor in how and where your pet sleeps. Time I'll spend with your dog We are a family of 3 here and if your pet is staying with us, it would likely have almost 24/7 rotating care and attention! I can walk them as often as you ask and will interact with them on an hourly basis during the day. Whatever instructions you have for night "doggie outs", etc will be followed.
