Safety, trust & environment

I will show up with great energy, a calming presence, and toys to play with (according to your pet's needs.) I'm not like other pet sitters- I really spend TIME with your pets. I'm intuitive and understand their needs. For younger pets, I offer lots of play and exercise- stimulation is important! I'm physically fit and would be happy to walk your dog if requested. After the walk, I will sit with him/her and offer my affection and attention. I will refresh their water bowl, feed them, (if requested) offer a treat, (if requested) brush them, play with them, or simply sit with them and be a calming presence in their day. It all depends on your pet's needs. I cater to their behavior and energy. If you have other pets in your home (gerbils, fish, turtles, bunnies, birds, etc) I would consider caring for them during your vacations. All to be discussed and negotiated, of course. As you can see from my profile, I'm very accommodating and flexible, and I offer a wide range of services. For overnight visits, my rate reflects a time frame from 8pm-7am. If you need me to do day visits as well, please explain in the messaging section when you contact me.

Information Amy W. would like to know about your pet

Please provide me with any other details that will enhance my visits, and ensure that your pet is well cared for. I always ask for your local veterinarian hospital information in case of an emergency.

A typical day

As described above, I will cater to your pet's individual needs. If he/she is young, I will provide stimulation and exercise. If he/she is older, I will provide a calm presence and affection.

Pet care experience

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! You clicked on THE absolute best pet-sitter you will ever find. My name is Amy, and I LOVE ANIMALS. I've had pets since childhood; dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, fish, ferrets, and turtles. Most of my pets are rescued. I'm a great dog walker- I will take your dog for a lengthy walk, (or a slow stroll for my older clients) and I will provide him/her with attention, love, and affection. According to their needs, I can sit with your pet to offer comfort and companionship, or romp around on the floor or in the yard for exercise and stimulation. My visits can be tailored to your requests. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and committed. Your pet's health and safety come first. I will take pictures during my visits (or videos, if you'd like) so you know your pet is being cared for. If you have a cat, I will bring toys for stimulating activity, or simply sit with him/her and offer a comforting presence. I also care for gerbils, hamsters, bunnies, birds, and turtles. If you have fish, I will feed them, and give them attention. (Yes, I connect with fish.) I understand animals. I relate to them. I'm intuitive to their needs. And of course, I have great references. There is no better pet-sitter on the planet than me. I look forward to meeting you and your precious family member!

Our dog Poof just loves Amy. Maybe because she's a great walker? Maybe it's the treats? Or perhaps all the love she gets from Amy? Needless to say, Amy is our go-to for any caretaking of our family dog. And it's not just walking Poof. And on top of that, Amy is a fantastic pet-sitter! She's clean, gives Poof plenty of attention, play time, and even more walks. We love having Amy, and so does Poof!

We are happy to write a testimonial for Amy! My husband and I won’t hire anyone else to care for our dog, Moose and our cat, Tiger. Amy is exceptional. When we say her name, Moose gets excited and zips around the room in anticipation of her visit! She brings him hiking and swimming, and he loves to chase a frisbee in our backyard. Tiger is a shy cat and goes into hiding when we have visitors, but not when Amy shows up- she’s the only person outside our family who Tiger interacts with. This is a testament to Amy’s ability to connect with animals. If you are reading this testimonial, look no further- you hit the jackpot with Amy.

I owned a pet sitting service in Los Angeles in the early 2000’s. I was fortunate to hire Amy a few months after we opened our business. She became our number one employee in a few short weeks. All of our clients, (many high-profile, celebrity clients) loved Amy and requested her months in advance. We couldn’t keep up with her bookings! She always gave 200% of her time and energy to their pets. She was trusted in their homes, and in their lives. Our clients raved about her, and didn’t want us to send anyone else. Amy can handle every situation that arises with a calm demeanor and skillful action. She is deeply connected to animals, and understands their behavior. She is like an “animal whisperer.” Some of our clients had a variety of pets including turtles, fish, rabbits, and birds. You name it, Amy will care for it, and love it like a member of her own family. If you are looking for the most genuine, trustworthy, and loving pet sitter, book Amy. She is the ONE.

We’ve hired Amy many times over the last five years to care for our dog, Remy and our cat, Socks. They love her visits! She takes Remy on long walks, plays fetch with him in our yard, and even takes him swimming in our pool! (His favorite activity is launching himself into the pool to fetch a ball!) Amy is trustworthy, reliable, professional, and always goes the extra mile to make our pets happy. She does overnight visits as well, and sends us pictures and videos of Remy and Socks playing. We trust her completely, and would recommend her to ANYONE who is looking for the best pet sitter in New England.
