Pet care experience

Best pet lover you´ll ever find!

My husband and I live in an apartment at the heart of Manhattan, 2 blocks away from Central Park and 2 blocks away from Riverside Walk. Key spots where your pet and I can have endless fun. I´ve been surrounded by animals since I can remember. I´ve lived with a lot of them my entire life - dogs of different sizes (Maltese, Husky, Golden Retriever, Cocker, Beagle), cats, snakes, turtles, parakeets, pigeons, and multiple fish tanks. Being around them made me happy as I was growing up. So 15 years ago I decided to start taking care of my friends and family´s pets, as it fulfilled my heart. I am always the trusted go-to for their pet care needs. People can truly rely on me and it’s a pure joy and pleasure every time they ask me to take care of their pets. I have watched cats and dogs in all capacities from drop-ins to stay-at-home and boardings. I devote my time to making sure that they’re content, comfortable, entertained, and happy. I make sure that all my actions are in the best interest of the animals that I am around. I treat every pet under my care as if they were part of my family. I love interacting with them, taking a walk with them frequently or cuddling with them if exercise is not allowed. I will adapt to their environment and needs, so they feel at home. I always think that communication is key, so I am committed to keeping an open line with you throughout. I will never leave your pet alone, ensuring they receive constant attention and love. My pets are away back at home, I miss them so much, so this will help me as much as it will help your furry friend. Pet sitting is a great way for me to be surrounded by animals, I just love it. I think you will find it hard to meet a bigger animal lover than me! Please feel free to reach out and start this adventure with the biggest energy, warmth, and playfulness!

Safety, trust & environment

I conveniently live 2 blocks from Columbus Circle so I love to walk at Central Park, Riverside Walk or go to dog parks. My building is pet friendly and has an elevator if your pet has special needs. It also has a big fenced courtyard with security key so your dog will be safe while having fun. There is never too much information you can provide on your pet. The more information you provide, the better I will be able to make your dog as happy and comfortable as possible. I'll always keep you updated with continuous photos and updates, I can't wait to have fun with your little one.

Amanda is truly one of the best, if not THE best, dog sitters I’ve ever worked with. She did an amazing job with my anxious dog Hazel, was very flexible, and even left my apartment in better shape than it was before she got there! It was spotless. She truly goes above and beyond. You can trust her with your loved one and in your home!

Amanda was absolutely incredible with our two dogs. She was very responsive and sent regular updates while we were out of town. Overall our minds were at ease knowing she was there to take care of them.

Amanda took care of my puppies for a week and they just love her. She even took my dog to the vet because we were worried she had a UTI. I was so happy she was here to help take care of them. She is amazing and reliable.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I just graduated medical school in my home country and soon I'll be applying to be a Pediatrician in the US, but it's a long process. In the meantime, I have plenty of time to be a stay-at-home dog mom, which is THE BEST. I can modify my schedule to fit yours. I´ll be focused in taking care of your pet full time, walking, cuddling, or anything he/she needs.

Amanda can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
As I said before, there is never too much information you can provide on your pet. But the best things to know are: 1. Temperament (with humans and other dogs or pets) 2. Detailed daily routine (less change makes them be more comfortable) 3. Eating schedule 4. Any special requests, needs and care 5. Habits 6. Energy level
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
