Safety, trust & environment
Our dog Harley is crated trained and plays indoors and outdoors in our fenced backyard.. She is walked on a leash daily and I check for ticks and foxtails after each walk. I completely puppy proofed the house when we adopted her. Tucker is an indoor cat and I keep up on his brushing to reduce his fur balls. I put his feather wand up high when I’m not at home so it’s safer for him. I play with him every day with the feather wand to get exercise and interaction. I know which flowers are not good for pets so we do not bring those into our home.
Information Amy S. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know what is your pets favorite toy or place to get scratched. Does your pet have any special needs or quirks? Places they like to hide in the house?
A typical day
Exploring, sniffing, playing games with positive reinforcement. Physical and mental activities are both important. I will be aware of the weather, surroundings and your pets mood to alter to get the best visit possible.

Pet care experience
I have been watching my sisters and neighbors fur babies for years. They rely on me when they travel for work or go on vacation. I have watched multiple cats and dogs as well as administered a hydration IV for a senior cat. I am loving and kind and will treat your fur babies like my own. I have a tuxedo kitty named Tucker and an Australian Shepherd named Harley, I will always make time for playtime and extra snuggles and pets.

Reviews
To Whom It May Concern, I am delighted to write this letter of recommendation for Amy Shaw, who has been our trusted cat sitter for several years. Amy is simply the best—caring, responsible, and truly gifted when it comes to caring for animals. Our cat, Peter, is elderly at 17 years old and requires special care, including daily subcutaneous IV fluids. Amy has consistently provided this delicate care with gentle precision, deep compassion, and calm confidence. She has earned Peter’s complete trust—and ours as well. Amy is always dependable and highly responsive. She keeps us updated with photos and messages while we’re away, and she’s proactive in her communication, never hesitating to reach out with questions or observations. Knowing she is in our home gives us complete peace of mind; we know both Peter and our house are in the very best hands. It’s clear that animals adore Amy, and she returns that love tenfold. We feel incredibly lucky to have her in our lives and cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone seeking loving and reliable pet care. -Abbie
Amy has taken care our cat, Lila and she does a wonderful job. We know she’s in good hands and don’t have to worry when we are out of town. She is warm and caring with her. We love the pictures she sends as well. Gratefully, Laura ( aka Lila’s mom)
Amy is a truly wonderful pet sitter and dog walker. She’s reliable, caring, and one of the biggest animal lovers I know. Amy has cared for both my cats and walked my dog, always showing up on time and with a warm, loving presence, and this brought me a sense of comfort and peace of mind. Animals naturally gravitate toward her, and it’s clear she forms real connections with them as she treats each pet like her own. If you’re looking for a caring, responsible, and devoted pet sitter or dog walker, I wholeheartedly recommend Amy. She’s one of the biggest animal lovers I’ve ever met and a truly wonderful person to have caring for your beloved pets.
