Amber was very responsive to my inquiry. She kept me informed with the time for the meet and greet. Very professional with explaining all the information and details she needed to cat sit for me. Asked me to email her detailed instructions on the daily care of Miss Kitty. Her rates are a bit higher than some of the other pros are. It is worth it to me because I don’t have to board.
Details: Cat • 1 pet • Changing litter or bedding • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

Our babies, including two St. Bernard dogs and a teddy bear kitty, do not like being left.
Amber made the difference! She responded quickly, was very sweet, professional, and accommodating. It was a relief to have our kids well taken care of and beautiful pictures sent during each of Amber's visits, while we were out of town!
My husband and I are fortunate to have found this lovely individual!

Amber was wonderful with my two cats. She communicated each day on how my cats were doing. This allowed me to feel like they were in good hands. Amber was professional and extremely easy to work with. I am definitely going to continue to use her in the future.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Please contact me for affordable, adjustable rates that fit your family's needs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I offer free in-home consultations to become acquainted with you and your pets. We'll spend approximately a half hour getting to know each other, discussing logistics and arranging the best care for your animal buddy's needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Even before I started Leafy Paw I had great experiences for many years. I learned to ride horses and care for them at age 9, grew up with lively family dogs, snuggled cats and supported animal nonprofits and rescue organizations. I obtained my Bachelor of Arts from Southern New Hampshire University in 2015 and am a graduate of a local outdoor school, so I'm not afraid to go out in the rain!
