Description:

My home is set up to host dogs, and has a huge yard! I work from home, so your dog will have lots of company. I have been fostering rescues and petsitting for 8 years, and am experienced with all types of pets. I can accommodate for any behavioral, medical, or social requirements your pet may have. Your dog will enjoy their vacation here while you enjoy yours! Doggie vacationers will love the huge securely fenced backyard and frequent walks on the greenway if they would like. Come relax here with lots of treats, attention, playtime, and belly rubs! Crate can be provided upon request. I have one resident dog, a 9 year old spayed and vaccinated Sheltie mix named Farrah, who is used to having other dogs around. She can also be kept separate from your dogs if needed.

About Amanda K.:

I am an experienced pet and house sitter in the Charlotte area. I have extensive experience with dogs, cats and exotics. I grew up with a family pet store and I have been helping to run a rescue and volunteering at the local shelter for almost 10 years. I am Pet First Aid certified and am comfortable giving medicine and watching pets with medical and/or behavioral issues. I can provide references upon request. Be assured that your pets will enjoy their stay-cation with me while you are enjoying your vacation!

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

I don't ever remember a time without dogs! I grew up with dogs and have had them my whole life. My current dog, a Sheltie mix named Farrah, is a rescue who I adopted 9 years ago.

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

I need to know about your pet's preferences, medications and routines. I like to keep them as close to their normal schedule as possible.

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

Yes

Are you comfortable administering medication?

Yes

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

I work from home, so I will be here with your dog all day and night.

If you have a backyard, please describe it.

I have a very large, securely fenced backyard.

Where will my dog sleep?

Your dog may sleep wherever he or she feels most comfortable, whether that's in a crate, on their own dog bed, on one of the dog beds here, or with me.

Are you willing to do additional tasks at my home while I'm away
(e.g., water plants, bring in the mail)?

Yes, I am an experienced pet and house sitter.

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

I typically do 'live-in' petsitting, where I would stay at your home and be with your pet(s) almost all day and night. They would follow their normal schedule and receive lots of attention and exercise! I am also open to visit sitting, and this could be worked out on a case by case basis.

Our black lab Barkley doesn't mind when we go on vacation because he gets a little 'vacation' of his own when he stays with Amanda. My husband and I are repeat customers....in fact Barkley has 'vacationed' with Amanda several times over the last year. She is amazing with animals and we always have peace of mind that our precious family member is being cared for as if he was her own. I cannot say enough great things about Amanda's services. You won't be disappointed!!! (Collapse)
