Pet care experience

I love animals, especially dogs!

Hello, my name is Amanda. I have my Bachelor's degree in Psychology and I am looking to expand my horizons into pet care. I have two dogs of my own. I have a 12 year old Miniature Schnauzer and an 8 year old Pit-Cocker Spaniel mix. Every dog has their own personality and mine are no exception! I would take the time to learn your pup's personality just like I have mine. I've had dogs most of my life, including taking care of my first dog Eddie, an Italian Greyhound, and a regular-sized Schnauzer named Zero. I have also been helping my parents with their new 8 month old puppy! As a teenager, I would dog-sit for our neighbor's Corgi. I would complete drop-ins three times a day for feeding, walking, and companionship. Unfortunately, I live with three other people and am limited in space I could offer in my own home. I do have experience administering medication such as pills, ear wash, and ointment application to the affected area. I plan to offer as many services as I am able. The services I currently offer: House-Sitting, Drop-In Visits, and Dog-Walking. I am not new to Dog-Walking services. I have been working with a local dog boarding company called Ridges and Paws. They have given me a wealth of experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, however I felt it was time to expand my services by creating my own profile with Rover. I do not work currently so I plan to devote my time to Rover and each of my client's individual needs. I understand each client is different and I will adjust my service to meet your needs. I have the Rover app on my phone and will be in constant communication with you about your special pet and friend. The Rover app will allow me to respond to any questions or concerns in real time. During my visits, I will send text and picture updates to help ease your time away. I believe a meet-and-greet should be completed prior to beginning services, unless it is an emergency or you are a returning client. I feel this is the best way to determine if I am the right fit for you and your family. This will also allow for any questions by you and for me to ask any questions about your pet. I want to make sure you and your pet receive the best care possible by learning your pets likes and dislikes, quirks, and general care information. I understand it's hard to be away from your best friend or family member! During my visits, I will work to ensure the level of care your friend experiences is the same level of care I would provide for my own.

15/10, will book again! Amanda was truly one of the most top-notch sitters with whcih we've had the pleasure of working. She was friendly and incredibly thorough in taking information and preparing for every instance. Our Mojo man is a bit of a shy boy and he took to her very well on the first meeting. He seemed relaxed and happy when we came home and exhibited less than normal clinginess to us in the days that followed our return. We are so grateful not only for her care of our boy, but for her consideration of our home. Couldn't even tell she had been there. Thank you and we look forward to booking again!

She was very sweet, kind, and most of all great with our babygirl! She sent pictures to us the entire time and even checked up with us on how we like things done. She left the house spotless and followed all of the directions we gave her. I will definitely use her for our future stays and would recommend anyone else to do the same. Your fur baby will be in great hands!

Amanda was very respectful, professional and reliable. She stayed overnight with our elderly dog and gave us multiple updates every day. Our pets were happy and calm when we came home reassuring us that Amanda was a loving and caring pet sitter!

Amanda was amazing with our fur babies. Lucas and Sam take time to warm up to people but by day one they were smitten with her. She followed all the feeding and potty instructions that we had left her and sent so many pictures. The pictures reassured me that they were in good hands. She was in contact more than twice daily which gave me ease while we were away. I will definitely be using Amanda again.

Amanda created a wonderful relationship with Murphy. He wasn’t even upset that I had left. A great comfort for us both

I do not have any breed preferences, but I am a smaller woman so I will keep the size limit of large dogs and under. For House-Sitting services, I will consider giant dogs. A few items I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before your service? Please keep in mind I will require a meet-and-greet prior to House-Sitting services. What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? How is your pup during walks when they spot another pup or a person? What’s the best way to spoil your pup during drop-ins and home-sitting? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust?
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.
