“Nervous Friends need Walks too”

Anxious and Reactive Dogs accepted.

Fully Insured via PCI insurance

CPPS Certified

At Amber’s Pawsitive Vibes, our philosophy is simple: nervous friends need walks, too. With over a decade of experience in social work and human services management—specifically supporting high-behavioral needs and elder care—I founded this business to bring a deeply patient, trauma-informed approach to pet care.

As a Certified Professional Pet Sitter (CPPS), my team and I combine structured behavioral knowledge with 100% force-free, positive reinforcement methods. Whether you have a high-energy dog needing all-weather trail hikes, a "spicy" feline requiring specialized handling, or an aging parent in assisted living who needs support keeping their beloved companion, we provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to your family's unique dynamics.
