I have a true passion for animals

Pet care experience

~Hello and thank you for viewing my profile! Before I start to talk more about myself I would like to give some further information about my availability. Currently I have a varying work schedule and I only know my shift hours 1 to 2 weeks in advance. Together we would need to find what works best for both parties. I will do my best to keep my availability updated but please feel free to message me with any questions. [Availability] Currently away. ~ Now a little about myself! I have grown up around dogs since I was 7 my first dog was a golden retriever and that's where my love of animals began. He was more than just a dog to me he was my brother and I loved him like family. We got him a little brother, a sheltie, that fell in love with at first sight as well. We got a lab/pit mix from the shelter who was nothing but love and kisses. As he got older we found out that he loved to chase ducks while on the leash. I was able to train him out of it over time with the help of a gentle leader and positive reinforcement. He had a different energy level from the Golden and Sheltie, requiring long nightly walks. We gained a deeper connection through these nightly walks and his excitement grew anytime I grabbed the leash. I have just moved to Pennsylvania from Florida and kept my love of animals with me. I have a cat and Australian Shepherd who are my fur babies. I live in an apartment with a strict pet limit so unfortunately I won’t be able to take in any other dogs or cats in at this time. When it is too hot or cold on the ground, we take our walk indoors to our local pet friendly store where we all get to enjoy a change of scenery and the a/c! I have worked at various pet stores since my love of animals is a driving force in my life. Always wanting to be surrounded by all types of animals in my life. I got to meet new parents and pets each day, hearing small pieces of amazing stories and sometimes getting to share one of my own. I have had a true passion for caring about animals all my life.

Amanda was fantastic. Available at the last minute. As soon as we met her we felt comfortable. She was reliable and made us feel like she really cared about our babies. She loved them and took great care of them and we had no worries at all. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely use her again in the future. Thanks so much Amanda!! We appreciate all you did!

Amanda is THE perfect dog walker if your dog is excitable in any way. Amanda really knows how to handle any behavior issues regarding high energy dogs. It was an amazing site to see Amanda and my dog walk so calmly down the street, clearly the dog is an extension of the leash. The whole process from start to finish is an excellent exercise for a high energy dog: ringing the door bell, coming in, no jumping commands & signals, calm happy dog out for a walk. Amanda also has impeccable integrity regarding her service and herself. She clearly has had years of experience raising and training dogs. She knows what it takes to get the dog to respond to a given command, follow through is so important in training a dog and keeping the dog under control. Amanda clearly loves dogs of all kinds. I will continue to hire Amanda to walk my dog and when the grandkids arrive I will hire her to educate the grandkids on walking a dog properly. Education is so important regarding dogs and their walk experience and Amanda has that and so much more regarding animals. Thank you Amanda and rover.com for your valuable service!

Information Amanda B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what your dog eats for its meal and when. Is your dog allowed to have treats? What treats are preferred? Any allergies they might have. Any behavioral tendencies they might have. For example: Do they pull suddenly on a walk when spotting another dog? Will sudden loud noises startle your dog such as a garbage truck or when something falls on the floor? Any training you are doing with your dog that you would like for me to keep up with. The basics about your pet and anything extra you think I might need to know, including their basic health history.

A typical day

I walk around the neighborhood when the weather/heat allows it. If I can't walk barefoot on the ground from the heat or cold I'm certainly not going to ask your dog to do it for an extended length of time. When the ground is too hot or cold I would be taking them to the nearest pet store or dog friendly place of your choosing near you to get some exercise time There we can enjoy safety from the heat or cold and I will bring a water bottle and collapsible bowl with me for our walks to keep your pup hydrated.
