Hi, I'm Amber, and I’m the proud owner of Following Paws Pet Sitting and Dog Walking! 🐾🐾

A little bit about me:
Since I was a child, I've had an unbreakable bond with animals. From the smallest critters to the gentlest giants, I've always felt a deep connection with our furry friends. Their unconditional love and joyful spirits never cease to brighten my day. Following my lifelong passion, I deci

ded to turn my love for animals into a rewarding career. With years of experience and a heart full of compassion, I created Following Paws to provide top-notch care for your beloved pets. It's a dream come true to spend my days surrounded by wagging tails and gentle purrs! When your pets are in my care, I treat them with the same love, respect, and attention that I give my own pets. Their safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities. Whether it's a cozy cuddle session or an exciting outdoor adventure, I'll make sure your furry companions are cherished and cared for every step of the way. Let's schedule a Meet and Greet session soon, so I can get to know your pets and their unique personalities. Contact me at (309)705-2179 or [email protected].

One of my goals for 2024 was to have 100 pets in my care! I can’t wait to see what the rest of the year holds!🎉Thank you...

Keep your pets safe this week!

A few more tips:

1. Provide your pets with a quiet, safe space in your home that they can go to when they’re stressed. (A bathroom with a dog bed/blanket is always my go to!)

2. Turn on the TV or radio and close blinds/ curtains to reduce sounds from fireworks.

3. Have medication on hand for severe anxiety.

With the holiday weekend quickly approaching, we'll share some tips over the next several days to help keep your best friends safe and content during what can be a scary time for them due to our noisy celebrations.

🚨House-call grooming services coming soon!

I wanted to explain how house call grooming works. House call grooming is a convenient service where the groomer(Me) comes directly to your home to groom your pet. Here's how it typically works:

1. Scheduling: You'll need to contact me to schedule an appointment. I will typically work with you to find a convenient time that fits your schedule. Luckily with House calls that can also mean later in the afternoon appointments.

2. Equipment: The groomer(Me) will arrive at your home fully equipped with my grooming tools and portable shower equipment, Tub, and grooming table and bring my grooming equipment anywhere from inside your home(bathroom or laundry room) outside on the patio or deck, Garage,or basement. Wherever is most convenient for you. This allows me to provide all the necessary grooming services without the need for you to transport your pet.

3. Initial Consultation: The groomer (me) will begin by discussing your pet's grooming needs and any specific requests or concerns you may have. This helps me understand your expectations and tailor the grooming session accordingly.

4. Grooming Process: The groomer(me) will then proceed with the grooming process, which includes bathing, brushing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and any other requested services such as haircuts or styling. I will use my professional expertise and gentle handling techniques to ensure your pet's comfort throughout the process.

5. Personalized Attention: One of the advantages of house call grooming is that your pet receives one-on-one attention from me. This can help reduce stress and anxiety compared to traditional grooming salons where multiple pets are groomed simultaneously.

6. Clean-up: After the grooming session is complete, the groomer (me) will clean up any mess created during the process. I will ensure that your home is left in the same condition as when I arrived.

7. Price: The current prices will be posted soon. I want to be able to remain reasonable but also fair to you as clients and me as the groomers. Price may be a bit higher then your typical salon but I will be at the convenience of your home and have to add a bit more due to travel fees but I promise to remain reasonable and fair.

8.. Payment and Feedback: Once the grooming session is finished, you'll typically make the payment to the groomer. It's also a good opportunity to provide feedback on the service and share any concerns or suggestions for improvement. As of right now payments accepted will be (Cash, Check, Cash app, Zelle, and Apple Pay)

My hope is to be able to continue to groom my clients dogs and build up more clients. I am working on getting my Licenses.

I am now insured through State Farm.

This will be new to me as I’ve worked as a in home groomer and also a salon groomer so as we go along I will be learning and hopefully eventually will be up and running smoothly very soon. I appreciate all of my clients for sticking by me during this transition. Thank you to everyone that trust me with their Fur babies too. I love them all.

What is a Drop-in Visit?

✅ Drop-in visits are for small animals like cats, dogs, hamsters, turtles, bunnies, birds, etc. This service takes place at the owner's home.
The service tasks vary depending upon the type of pet/pet needs. Drop-ins for cats include feeding, scooping the litter or cleaning waste areas for other pets, refreshing the water and play time when applicable. Clients can choose between 30/45 min or 1 hour visits.

After each visit, I provide a report card with photos and detailed information on how the service went.
