Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong cat lover and Nurse🐈⬛
Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I'm the proud cat mom of Louie, who has been my companion for the past 15 years. During my time as a travel nurse, Louie and I spent eight years traveling the country together, which taught me a great deal about animal behavior, routines, and helping pets feel secure and comfortable. I'm a pediatric nurse by profession, so caring for others comes naturally to me. Friends describe me as dependable, patient, and nurturing—qualities that I bring to pet care as well. Although most of my experience comes from being a lifelong pet owner, I have also cared for friends' cats while they were away and understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands. I especially love cats and understand their unique personalities, but I also grew up with a dog and enjoy spending time with dogs too. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's specific needs, preferences, and schedule. In a client's home, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks (if applicable), playtime, affection, and companionship while ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I am also comfortable administering medications to both cats and dogs according to owner and veterinary instructions. As a pediatric nurse, I am attentive to details, patient, and experienced with following care plans carefully. I understand the importance of consistency and monitoring for changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. Having owned cats my entire life and cared for my cat Louie for the past 15 years, I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and in need of extra attention, or shy and prefers a quieter approach, I will adapt my care to meet their individual needs. I will also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to care for every pet as if they were my own—with patience, compassion, and plenty of love.
Ratings and reviews
Amy is one of the most caring and attentive pet owners I know. She’s had our cat Louie since he was just a young kitten, and now at 15 years old, he’s still thriving thanks to her patience, love, and consistency. She understands how pets’ needs change as they age and always makes sure Louie is comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Living with her, I see every day how naturally she connects with animals—she’s gentle, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with them. Whether it’s sticking to feeding routines, keeping things clean, or just giving extra attention and affection, she goes above and beyond. I would trust Amy completely with any dog or cat. Anyone who books with her can feel confident their pet will be in kind, capable hands.
Amy is a true animal lover. Her big heart and sense of responsibility give her the ideal qualities to be a pet sitter. She will go above and beyond to make sure the animals in her care are tended to with love.

Schedule
Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my weekly routine. My current work schedule is flexible, which gives me the opportunity to provide reliable care, attention, and companionship to pets throughout the week. I understand how important consistency is, especially for cats, and I strive to keep pets comfortable and happy while their owners are away.
