I’m currently a medical student, but I only have to be on campus for a few hours each week. My partner who lives with me works full time, but she works from home Mondays and Fridays and is happy to help care for animals on those days. Our weekends are entirely free for animal care!

Our apartment complex has a fenced-in grassy area that is large enough to accommodate larger dogs. If I’m coming to your home, I’ll make sure your pet’s water bowl is full and that they feel happy and loved.

Animal-loving medical student!
Pet care experience
I have loved caring for cats and dogs since I was a child. I pride myself on my ability to read animal body language and gain their trust at their own pace. I also have plenty of experience training animals. For example, my cat currently knows how to sit, lay, and spin! I have administered many different kinds of medications to both cats and dogs. My friends and family members also trust me to care for their senior dogs (a chihuahua, a goldendoodle, and a yorkie mix). I’m very attentive and make sure they have everything they need and give them lots of cuddles! I also have plenty of experience with puppies and kittens. I try to always match my energy level to the animal I’m caring for. I’m happy to play, hike, and run around with the more energetic babies and take it slow and cuddle/chill with the lazier or older ones I try my best to give personalized care to each animal, since they’re all unique and have their own little quirks. I also have experience with some skiddish, shy, and unsure animals. I work very hard to make them feel safe and show them the gentleness and care that they deserve. For boarding, there is a wonderful cat in my home. He is playful, but gentle and loves dogs very much. I can only board dogs that are okay with cats, but I’m very confident that I’d be able to do a slow introduction with a dog that has never met a cat before.
Reviews


Amanda took great care of our two cats for a week of house sitting! She came for a meet-and-greet to learn everything about our cats and gave thorough updates through the week. She spent a lot of extra time with them, gave them medication, and took special care with our elderly cat’s special feeding routine. Highly recommended!

Amanda was perfect. She provided photos almost every single day. I always wait a couple days after to see if my dog created bad habits or reacts differently and jovial actually has reacted somewhat better on some of her commands which I found to be amazing! Amanda has been understanding and kind during the hectic international travel, I’m so happy I found her!
Amanda is an amazing pet owner and I have seen her go above and beyond with not only her own pets but also with other people’s pets, my own included! She is incredibly patient and loving with dogs of all walks of life. Even my senior dog loves her and she doesn’t like anyone! I would entrust Amanda with my pets any day and I wish she lived closer to me so I could!!
