Pet care experience
Frmr Vet TechAst Compassionate Care
Everyone who knows me will tell you that I have an incredible love and passion for my family life centered around children and fur-babies. I have been been caring for and rescuing animals for over 30 years. During that time I’ve worked with many rescues and local organizations to provide loving care to foster, rehabilitate, and adopt out hundreds of many cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, etc. I have worked with feral cats in clinics to fix, vet and release. I helped out with the Mason Cat Coalition at George Mason University. I have had a few hundred cats/kittens puppies/dogs and everything in between over the years. I vetted, cared for or nursed back to health many. Most found forever homes, however for many animals, a few adopted me and my home! I am notorious keeping the unadoptable ones! I genuinely care and love above all else. Something important to know about me is that I am extremely meticulous in my care of animals. I have never had an animal get into places, food or medications they were not supposed to, run out the door, get lost, forget to lock the door, etc. This simply does not happen because I treat them as if they were own family members. I am as vigilant as if I were watching your human child. I have experience in providing care for large all the way down to very small animals, seniors, babies and everything in between including some reptiles, hermit crabs, rabbits, small rodents, etc. I’m very patient and calm, which works well with seniors, or animals with special needs including the, administration of medication, or injections. During my visits I also offer free basic training and/or behavioral advice for dogs and cats. I am normally that go-to animal person that other pet care providers go to for questions.

Ratings and reviews
We are so incredibly thankful for Amy - she was a last minute find for my 3 large dogs (all about 60 lbs each) and she did both check ins and overnights. All of my dogs LOVED her, and that is saying something as one of my dogs is quirky, and another is protective of the house and kids. Any was also very patient with all of our dogs as they warmed up to her, and by the end of her visit all of them were cuddling with her on the couch. I loved the fact Any spent over an hour on the phone with me getting to know my dogs and their routine to keep it as close to how we usually do things as possible, provided very detailed updates at each visit (and a lot of fun videos), was very prompt in her communications, and went above and beyond and brought things up she noticed to help keep the house running (ie she noticed I had a lot of ants coming into my house and asked if she could help treat before I came home so I wouldn't come home to a lot of ants). Overall highly recommend her and we will be reaching back out to her for any future needs.
Amy is amazing! Our dogs did not even know we were away with all of the love and attention they got from Amy while we were away! From the long walks, and fun indoor games when the weather wasn’t great, Amy took so much care to make sure they were happy in our absence. The photo and text updates were frequent, so we were able to stay connected while we were away. Amy is incredible!!!
Amy was absolutely phenomenal with our two large dogs. One is a senior, and we were so reluctant to leave “just in case.” It’s never easy leaving fur babies behind, but Amy sent so many photo and message updates! She got to know our dogs really well, and it was clear to me that she truly loves what she does. She worked on training our young dog, and spent so much time and energy making sure they were well-cared for the entire time we were gone!
Amy took wonderful care of our dogs and home. She is incredibly professional, kind and is our dogs felt right at home with her.
Amy is fantastic! She took such wonderful care of our two pups. Highly recommend.
We had an excellent experience and would absolutely book with Amy again! She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and genuinely cared for our dogs. Our senior Lab has some special needs, and she handled everything with so much patience, compassion, and attention to detail, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. She truly went above and beyond to make sure both of our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear they were in great hands. We came home to two happy pups, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable!

Schedule
Pet care is my happy place! I begin early and end late. I am available to come to your home to discuss any schedule changes you may need. We are a team and I want my pet parents as happy as their pets. Please note that the welfare of the pets I care for during my petsits are the most important to me - the pet before you, or even your pet, may require additional time usually up to 15 minutes. I do not charge for this time - it's not the pup or kitty's fault! but they deserve to be clean and healthy before I leave. If more time than 15 minutes is required, I will go back after my next petsit to care for them. As always, I communicate and can be reached!
