About Amanda B.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I see my clients animals just as my own, I would want my babies to be extremely well taken care of and all of my boxes checked, ducks in a row! So I understand clients wanting the same. I will be just as diligent with your fur babies as I am with my own, because I wouldn’t expect anything less.
Information Amanda B. would like to know about your pet
I would prefer to know if your animal has any allergies, medications, or behaviors before the initial visit. If you have any daily supplements/ vitamins as well, and if your breed has specific grooming requirements I can fulfill whilst under my care.
A typical day
I love doing many different types of activities with my dogs; sniff walks, puzzle toys, snuffle matts, frozen kongs, etc. I have a variety of ideas even for the pickiest of eaters and the dogs who don’t like toys. At the shelter I work at we give the dogs plenty of time to stretch their legs, get lots of snuggles, play fun games, and lots of toy time.

Pets
Big or small I’ll care for all.
Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs since I was an infant and grew to love to train dogs and have been actively caring for/training dogs for 15 years. My family has always asked me when leaving town to care for their animals and have always been happy with the care given while they were gone. Currently working part-time so I’m very free to check on/exercise your pups! I have a lot of experience with a lot of different tools used with dogs; from a flat collar to an e-collar to a prong collar. My three dogs are very well-behaved and are dog, cat, and kid friendly.
Cat care experience
Amanda also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Amanda was amazing! She really helped our pups feel cared for. Definitely will recommend her and keep her in mind for the future!
We had Amanda booked for two nights to house sit our dogs on the front end of a trip out of the country. The morning after her first night, I checked our Ring doorbell and realized Amanda came to our house around 5pm the night before, took our dogs on a walk, left at 6pm, and then never returned. When I texted Amanda about her absence, she replied she had plans the night before that ran long and she wasn't able to return to our house. Our dogs had been left alone for almost 14 hours at this point. While Amanda was apologetic for not informing us about her inability to stay at the house overnight, the casualness with which she admitted she just didn't return to our house was incredibly frustrating. We ended up cancelling the rest of her booking and utilized friends to let our dogs out throughout the day until our next sitter could arrive. We were initially excited to book Amanda after doing a meet and greet, but would not book her again.
Amanda watched my dogs when I went on vacation for a week. She walked them multiple times daily. She also fed and watered them multiple times daily. She’s also a big animal lover.
