Furry babies that need extra love!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Amy! I worked at an animal hospital from 2012-2020 (full time to part time) since I do work at a school full time. I have dog sat for friends, coworkers, friends of friends, neighbors of friends, etc. What turned into dog sitting for clients turned into a passion as a side/full time job. I love animals very much and treat each and everyone as my own because I know what it’s like to have someone watch my furry babies while I’m gone, and I want to make sure they have the best care possible. I do my best to stay with the pups / cats as much as possible unless I go to work or run to the store. I have found it is easier for everyone involved to dog sit at their place. I do like to set up and meet and greet before I dog sit so I get familiar with certain habits and routines. All I ask is for WiFi info so I can get some work done on my laptop. I have been away for a long time on this app, but decided it’s time to come back!

Amy watched my daughter’s dog overnight while we attended a wedding. She is absolutely wonderful. She stayed in contact with my daughter the whole time because this was the first time someone else had watched him. Everything went perfect. I call her the dog whisperer . We will definitely use her again.

Amy is delightful and took such good care of Clara, even taking her along for her family gatherings over Thanksgiving! I would certainly recommend her to watch your pet.

Information Amy W. would like to know about your pet

I have worked with nervous and skittish dogs before and realize it may take time for them to warm up. I do like to know ahead of time any behaviors they may have.

A typical day

It truly depends on the pup. We can go on walks (I love walks), we can play in the backyard or we can be lazy and watch movies together.

I do work full time in a school, I have dog sat plenty of times while working and have found no issues with that. I take care of them before and after work and stay with them, along with weekends.
