About: While I’ve been a lifelong dog owner, I’ve always had a great connection with dogs. Our family English Bulldog, Koa, we had till he was 14 years old and loved and lived life to his fullest. I currently don't have a dog, just a cat with my boyfriend (Jake). My commitment as a gym/fitness owner/coach, and currently in a bodybuilding prep, is why I am not getting a dog of my own but since I am needing to get in my daily steps, I figured that I can get steps in and motivation through dog walking and of course the investment from you! While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m familiar with basic commands, leash manners, crate routines, and positive reinforcement. I’ve handled dogs from 5 lbs to over 100 lbs and love learning their personalities. Whether your pup is a tiny lap dog or a strong puller, I’m comfortable and confident. Friends and clients trust me because I’m reliable, attentive, and always make safety my top priority. I understand how important it is to leave your dog in good hands, and I’m here to provide peace of mind and top-notch care. Items we provide: 6-passenger van where we can transport dogs Extra Leash Dog Poop Bags Water / Water Bowls Treats (on approval by owner(s)) Pup Cups at coffee stops (on approval by owner(s)) While I have a very flexible schedule, I do like to have advanced / structured scheduling either before the new week or for the month, if at all possible. If you happen to need me on Saturday or Sunday, just let me know and I can check my schedule. In my own home (which I share with my boyfriend Jake), I have a 8-month old rescue tabby cat (Sage) who is pretty self sufficient but I love keeping her active with cat tree and toys. I keep her litter box cleaned daily. This is my first cat since being allergic but I’m no longer and it’s been great to be around other cats. My boyfriend and I live active lives so we have chosen not to have a dog of our own at this time which makes our time for you just as nice. I am very familiar with the walking trails in the municipality and carry a bear spray so I am very bear and moose aware. Ensuring your pet(s) are leashed appropriately is also important. I walk my best friends two black labs, hike with another friend who has (3) labs, and I own a gym where dogs are invited. I love to stay healthy and active as I like to keep the dogs and pets im around. Routine is important to both Jake and I. We are both registered with Rover and while I am the main point of contact, rest assure that if I am unable to fulfill my responsibilities, I want to make sure that your pet(s) are not impacted.

“Amanda has watched my cat on two separate occasions now. She’s a great sitter who obviously cares a lot and has a lot of experience with animals. My kitty always seems happy and well taken care of. She’s quickly becoming my go to sitter!”


“We used Rinnah for the first time to do a drop in visit and we loved her! She was very responsive when we first sent our request and was able to come over ahead of time to meet our dogs. During the check in, she confirmed in the morning and let us know when she was arriving. She took the 30 minutes to let them out and play with them, which we so appreciated since we kennel them when we are gone. Not only did she communicate with us during the visit, but she also sent us videos and pictures. I think we found our new dog sitter and will be using her more in the future. Thank you, Rinnah, for loving on our dogs!”


“Amy did an awesome job taking care of our cat while we were away. She sent some really great pics of her and we were reassured that all was well. Great communication and just dependable all around. Definitely recommend and will be using her again.”


About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have 3 pups of my own and a variety of exotic animals. I have worked as a dog trainer and volunteer at the vet and rescues. I am very active so long walks are my favorite and I have a soft spot for old animals. I communicate very well. The standards I have for the care of my pets is exceptionally high and I provide that same experience for every pet I take care. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to do check ins or walks multiple times a day, if needed, and also have weekend availability. I am a big fan of communication(and photos!) but am trustworthy and reliable enough that you can also be out of service and rely on me to take care of things.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every breed from puppy to senior since I was 13. I've been relied on to walk, feed, train and provide oral medicine. I'm in college part time so I am available to house sit and spend time with your pets do drop in and walks in the mid mornings and early afternoon. I can take your pets for walks when you need and stay in home with them to give them lots of love, ensure they are fed or given medicine on time. I have crating experience if your pet needs to be crated. If you have a park your pet enjoys I can take them there and let them have fun as well.

“Ida and I often go on walks together and she’s always lead one of my dogs, Baloo and Daisy.

She always gives them some pets and scratches before and after walks. With permission, she’s also given them some treats! I would 100% trust my dogs with Ida. They whine in excitement when they see her 💜.”
