About Amy R.

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer to care for pets at your home. It is important to me to know all information that will keep your pet safe! What is your pet's routine like? How do they react to new people? How do they react to a new person when you're not around? Do you have a fenced in yard to play in or prefer only a leashed walk? What are words that you use when another dog is approaching or if you don't want your dog to try to chase a squirrel? Do you provide positive reinforcement? Are you currently working on any training? Has your dog ever shown aggression? How friendly is your dog with other dogs? These are some examples of the things it is very important for us to discuss so that I can ensure I am fully prepared for any situation as your pup and I become new friends and get to know each other.

Information Amy R. would like to know about your pet
Please, share with me everything you can about your pet to help me get to know what they like, don't like, special needs, etc. I want it to be the best experience possible for all of us.
A typical day
My kids and I love to play with fur babies! Whether it's at your house or our house, we give them all the love we can while their families are at work or away. We look at your pets as an extension of our family/new beasties! We have long lasting relationships with families. We love to play normal games like fetch and tug but also make up other fun games to keep our furry friend's minds engaged. We respect that each family has different methods and needs which means each furry friend has a different diet, rules around the house, and general guidelines.

Pet care experience
I was so fortunate to grow up with pets of my own. When I was in college, I had several families who I taught piano to their children ask me to walk their dogs and also to stay at their homes while they traveled. I naturally enjoyed it, and the families started referring me to other people. I have had the opportunity to care for dogs, cays, birds, fish, bunnies, ferretts, and reptiles. I'm now a mom to 3 children who also love animals. We have a 5 year old cockapoo who thinks he's one of the kids, because he's such an important piece of our family. I have had the opportunity over the years to gain experience working with puppies and kittens through geriatric age. I have also helped families with general training to help them keep up their routine. I am not a trainer. I am however happy to utilize commands you share with me to provide the best relationship and care for your pup. I am very fortunate to have a very flexible schedule which has allowed me to grow wonderful relationships with local families

Reviews
I would highly recommend Amy to be considered to be a care taker of others loved animals. She has watched my dog Rico countless times which included short term stays as well as long term stays. She has a real passion and love for dogs and respects the wants and needs that their owners expect as well. She is also extremely helpful in last minute binds, I have had to use her multiple times with little to no notice.
Amy has been a lifesaver for us with caring for our dog and cat. We have peace of mind when we travel and she has often been available on short notice. Our dog and cat just love her. Amy not only walks them and feeds them, but plays with them.
Amy is a fantastic pet sitter. Whether it be daily dog walks or caring for my dogs when we’re out of town. She’s very attentive to each dog’s needs. I have a shy dog and one who loves everyone. I trust Amy with my pets and I don’t worry about anything missing from my home when I return.
