Extremely passionate pet caretaker!
Pet care experience
I have been caring for animals of all kinds, from dogs to hedgehogs for most of my life. I was lucky enough to be the neighborhood go-to pet sitter and got to spend time with my favorite people (dogs). I have a senior long haired miniature dachshund of my own who is very delicate, anxious, and sees a doggy ophthalmologist so I'm very familiar and accustom to anxious animals, administering all kinds of medication, senior pet needs, puppy care, etc. Unfortunately, my fur baby doesn't live with me (she lives at home with my family) so I am sourly missing all the animal loves and have plenty of love and attention to give!
Reviews
Amanda is amazing! She took the time to come meet my dog before their first session and he loved her, of course. As much as I hate to leave my dog, I’m looking forward to the next time I can book Amanda to take him on a walk!
Amanda has been fantastic walking my dog Ellie. Ellie takes a while to warm up to new people and Amanda was good at respecting Ellie's boundaries while Ellie got comfortable. Amanda is also reliable and great at communicating with me when I have questions.
amanda was so wonderful! sweet, flexible, easygoing, and punctual. i would absolutely leave my pup with her again and again.
Amanda is my younger sister. In our neighborhood growing up, there were many households with pets (dogs, cats, fish, hedgehogs, etc.), and Amanda was always the person they would turn to to take care of the animals. She had been doing this for years for plenty of families in the neighborhood. She also was an attentive carer for our family dog growing up. Amanda is particularly dedicated and loving to dogs, but also to all types of pets. I would say she is very skilled in pet care for a variety of animals and would be an excellent addition to the Rover team.

Safety, trust & environment
I can easily adapt to any of your parenting styles you wish to adhere to whether it be crating, training of any kind, sociability etc.
Information Amanda H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know what your dogs temperament is like so I know how to approach them. I experienced with shy and timid as well as energetic and friendly dogs and everything in between. Knowing some basics about their personalities will be extremely helpful to avoid overwhelming them or scaring them in any way. Additionally, does your dog like to be around other dogs? If they love being around other dogs, that's great! If they are more on the shy/scared side please let me know so we can avoid any anxiety inducing environments.
A typical day
The fun will be dependent on your dogs' energy levels. For more senior dogs we'll enjoy a more gentle, leisurely stroll with plenty of times for sniffs along the way. For younger and/or more energetic dogs we'll take a fun brisk walk. I'll let my furry friend set the pace and lead wherever the nose desires!
