My pups LOVE Ashlee. We use her for boarding whenever we are out of town but I’ve recently requested her services for drop ins while I’m at work. She was flexible with the times I needed and willing to take the pups on multiple walks! So thankful for her!

About: I grew up with pet dogs. I've since become a "cat lady" but continue to love dogs. Out on neighborhood walks I have to stop and pet every dog and cat I meet! There's nothing like a bright dog face and and a wagging tail or a cat purring and rubbing against my legs! I'm recently retired and have lots of time to spend taking care of your pets. I'm available weekdays and weekends, daytime and evenings, and holidays. I'm flexible and open to hearing about your pet sitting scheduling needs. I grew up with dogs, but now I'm a cat lady who loves and pampers my little boy, Mr. Kitty. I prepare special food for him, give him lots of attention, and take him for long walks in his cat stroller. I'm an energetic and responsible recently retired hospice nurse. I'll pamper your pets and give them the greatest care. I'll also treat your space with respect and maintain a clean environment in your home.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of different animals, including cats, dogs, turtles, fish, among many others. I've been a pet owner my entire life, and have taken care of neighbors and family/friend's animals since I was a child. I've been a member of trusted house sitters and care . com and have provided excellent care for local families for years, so you can rest assured I will treat your pets and home like my own, in the best way possible. I'm currently working part-time remotely so I have plenty of time and flexibility in both my every day and weekly routines. I have someone that can take care of my cat so I can stay in-home to give better care to your pets. I only care for animals in their own home, which helps them be more comfortable since their routine isn't changed as much. I'm happy to take dogs on walks and to parks if they're amicable with others.

Amanda was so great with our kitty Butters when we needed a sitter after other plans fell through! She was quick to respond to my request, and she always sent great photos and updates on how he was doing at each visit. I couldn’t be happier with her excellent service and care for Butters! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook in the future. I felt so much better and less worried on my trip knowing Butters was in such good hands.
