Long walks or high energy runs!
Pet care experience
I'm sadly unable to have animals where I live now, so I take every chance I can to pet sit for friends. I work full time and am going to grad school; but I still find time to exercise regularly: I love swimming, tennis and running. I enjoy movies and museums, reading, and hanging out with friends and family! When I care for pets, I treat them as if they were my own. I'll send updates and pictures as often as you'd like. I had a dog of my own years ago, he was a beautiful boxer, but I love dogs of all sizes. I'm happy with high and/or low energy dogs, too. I can be as active as needed and enjoy going on walks and just spending time with animals. I'm able to dispense medication if needed. My first job out of college was working at a veterinary clinic as the receptionist, so animals have always had a special place in my heart! If you have any specific questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask!

Amy is the best! My dog gets stressed out when the family heads out of town, to the point of making himself sickly. So I thought I'd get Amy to watch him in his own home. He didn't have any of the symptoms he usually has when we go on vacation. Amy sent us pictures of him playing and having a great time in her company (and even of him just chillin'). I will try to rebook Amy every time we need to go out of town. Thanks so much Amy!
Amy is a fantastic dog sitter! My elderly dog adores her and she placed an amazing emphasis on his care and happiness. She kept me updated with pictures and would provide me with updates on his medical issues and daily activities. I genuinely trust and feel that I could depend on Amy if a situation were to happen while I was away. I would rate her as a 10 on the 1-10 scale and will always go to her first for my doggie care needs.
We love Amy! Our 95lb dog, Abby, is skittish and barks (scary-loud) when she's anxious. Amy was so calm when she came by that Abby immediately loved her. Abby is also extremely bull headed and very strong, which makes it difficult to handle on walks. Amy had very little problems and was able to keep Abby under control...amazing. She loves dogs and I think the dogs understand that. We've acquired another dog since then and Amy is our first choice for a dog sitter.
I have had cats and dogs my whole life and I never seen someone who loves pets as much as Amy does! My parents' dog and my cat absolutely adore her. She gives such great love and attention-- they cannot wait until she visits again! Amy has become my go-to person when we need someone to look after our pets. I know we are always in great hands and will not have to worry about anything while we are away!

I can go to nearby parks/places that are the dog's favorite, or we can travel in my car if wanted. I live close to the Arb and enjoy going there for long walks! We can go to dog parks if your dog is a fan.
