Caring+Experienced Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi there!! My name is Amy and I am a PreK teacher who loves being around animals. I was raised in a family that taught me to really appreciate nature and animals. Growing up around all kinds of animals, from snakes and frogs to dogs and cats, has taught me to have a lot about patience and learn how to really love every animal. I’ve most recently taken care of two cats (Lulu and Fidgy) and one Sheltie (Sadie). I've taken care of many dog and cat breeds throughout the years. To name a few dog breeds, I've worked with Schipperkes, American Eskimos, Siberian Huskies, Shelties, Chocolate Labs, Golden Retrievers, Chihuahuas, German Shepherds, Beagles, Corgis, Pugs, Poodles, Bulldogs, etc. I understand the common body language of cars and dogs to understand how they are feeling and their level of comfort. I have been without any pets since 2020 and would love to interact with some animals (especially cats!)

Amy has walked my dog and was just fabulous! She really cares for him and makes sure he gets his requisite exercise. She sends great pictures and updates, I trust our dog is in great hands with her!

We had Amy look in on our cat for a couple of days. Amy gave our cat food and the attention that she needs when we are away. She was also respectful, prompt, and responsive on the app. We would call on Amy again.

Amy was fantastic. Came early in day to meet Pepper and sent pictures of Pepper after her walk. Will definitely contact her again.

Information Amy W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to meet the dog and owners in their home before sitting to make sure that I know what is expected of me and how to best help their dog while away.

A typical day

I plan on taking routes that have the most grass and shaded areas for the dog to enjoy the outdoors and staying out of the hot sun. I will make sure your dog enjoys the walk and will adjust our activities based on the dog's needs.
