We have 2 options:

use our Contact form on the bottom of the home page, or send an email to bookAPP@amberspamperedpets.com

For the FASTEST booking, please provide the following info:

• Your Address so we can confirm you are in our service area  
• Date of pet care needed to confirm availability  
•  Type of pets you have so we can match you up with the perfect sitter!
  
• Your phone number (be CERTAIN you have entered the correct EMAIL address as well)

Then set up a date and time for your FREE MEET N GREET!!

You can call or text 574-208-0391 to talk to Amber during regular business hours 8am-6pm. Leave Amber a message if it is after hours and she will get back to you as soon as possible! (or EMAIL if it is after business hours)

• We don’t usually take bookings over the phone for liability reasons, but are happy to answer any questions you may have!

• EMAIL us for booking! This is for your protection so that no booking gets misunderstood!! 

At the Meet N Greet, the sitter you are matched up with will go over all your pet’s information and routine and let your pet get to know the sitter as well. This care information will be kept on file for future services. You can update your care notes anytime by emailing us!

• We ask that you have TWO KEYS tested and ready for us to take.
  •    We use our own labels and assign you a private client number-NO addresses and NO names other than pet names will be on the key tag. They are both kept in our safe until the time of service, then one key will be on your sitter’s person. In case of emergency, if something should happen to your sitter, the backup sitter can access the backup key in the safe and continue care for your pets.
• New clients are asked to have PAYMENT IN FULL for their first set of services ready at the Meet n Greet. After the first set of visits, clients are then given the option to receive an invoice and pay within 10 days. 

For Meet n Greets for new clients, we have a few options to accommodate this special circumstance. New clients can choose between the following options

• Virtual Meet n Greet. We will schedule a time to do the Meet n Greet over FaceTime/Messenger/Zoom or other virtual app to take down care notes and show us where things are located. Keys can be dropped off at our office in the drop off box that is on the front door.

1. In Person Meet n Greet with safety precautions. The sitter will come to the home wearing a mask, removing shoes at the door and maintaining the safe 6 foot social distancing standards. Care notes will be taken and keys retrieved at the meet. We are happy to meet outdoors at a safe distance with no mask if the pup is in need of a less ‘strange’ approach for behavioral reasons.
2. Zero Contact. (For cats and emergency situations) E-mail Amber all instructions (feeding info, location of supplies, etc) and drop keys off at our office in the drop box on the front door.

We are happy to accommodate any special needs and want to instill confidence in current and new clients alike that we are taking this pandemic very seriously. While we are very eager to get back into the swing of things, we don’t want to do it at the risk of anyone’s health. We are in this together!

Our payment options:

• Give your sitter a check at the Meet n Greet, leave a check on the counter at the first visit, or mail in a check at the conclusion of service. Make checks out to Amber’s Pampered Pets
• Add your credit card to your TTP portal and pay there. We offer Auto charging as well.

We match you up with sitters that have experience with pretty much any type of pet you can imagine!  Multiple sitters have experience with reptiles, birds, wildlife, and even exotics like Coatimundis! We also care for horses and barns, ducks and chickens and more!
