Hello! My name is Amy Baker. I am a responsible and caring person, who will look after your pets and your property, as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and an accumulation of air miles, that allow me to take some time away from my market garden business and explore new places. House sitting would afford me the opportunity to combine my passion for travel and love of animals.
I am physically fit and a non smoker.

Why I want to house sit

House sitting appeals to me in that, I can experience a location at my own pace and enjoy the companionship of pets. Walking in natural surroundings is always more enjoyable with a dog and curling up with a good book is better with a cat on your lap. I am looking for solitude and time to read and sketch. I enjoy exploring museums and cultural attractions in big cities, as much as I love hiking in remote natural places.

My experience

For most of my life I have had a cat or dog or both. I currently have a 5 year old Boston Terrier named Gigi. Fortunately my mother is able to take her when I travel.
I understand your pets will be happiest if their routine is maintained, while you are away and they get the right balance of exercise, play and love. I have experience with administering different types of medications to both cats and dogs. I will do my best to ensure the health and safety of your pets.
In the past when I traveled I did use a pet sitter and I know how hard it is to leave your pets behind and the peace of mind a good sitter can bring.

Generally, I will be traveling solo and will be house sitting on my own. However, my spouse, who runs his own business is able to take time off in the winter months and may join me during those months. I will specify in my application, if that is the case. Derrick is very handy, resourceful and able to make repairs and maintain a lawn or garden. He also is an animal lover and if there are several pets to be cuddled and fussed over, two humans are better than one!

I have owned my own home and take pride in keeping it tidy and maintained. I will respect the instructions you leave and your home will be clean when you return.

    We had no worries when leaving our beloved dog with Amy. Stella seemed to take to her and was immediately at ease around her. We could tell that Amy's calm and gentle way with Stella would be the perfect match. While we were away, Amy kept in touch daily by text and photos, so we knew all was well. And we returned to a very happy little dog, and our house was tidy and clean. Thank you Amy. We hope that you will be happy to come back and care for Stella again sometime.

    Amy was THE BEST! So friendly, so open, so accommodating, and so loving of my precious dog! She sent me a pic every day of she and my pup, and left my house immaculate. I loved getting the chance to meet her, and give her my highest recommendation for house/pet sitting!
