Organized and Dependable Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I absolutely love all dogs, big and small, and have owned dogs ever since I was a little kid. My husband and I have been raising our first puppy, a golden retriever, and she is the sweetest 5 year old now! We also have a cat, Polly, who willingly tolerates our golden but they unfortunately will never be besties. Both of our pets are friendly with other animals, Roux more so than Polly. I have pet sit for multiple families as well as hosted dogs at our home. I have great time management skills and I'm very dependable. I am a person you can trust to leave your dog with and will take care of your pets as if they were my own. I am strict with my own dog's behavior and will expect the same from any visiting animals that we have in our home and am happy to help facilitate basic training. I will take lots of pictures to send to you throughout the day along with updates on how your pup is doing.
Reviews
Amanda is wonderful watching our two cats. She is very good with communication and we can be away from home assured that our kitties are taken care of.
Amanda swooped in and saved the day when I was going to be home late from work and needed someone to let my sweet pup relieve herself. Excellent communication and very kind!
We were very happy with Amanda caring for our 3 cats! She gave very detailed reports each day and it was clear that our kitties were in capable and caring hands. It made our time away more comfortable.
Leila had the best time hanging out with Amanda and Roux as usual. Great sitter!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a partially fenced yard and a cable tie out system as well. Our dog does very well off leash and stays in the yard, but I will make sure to keep your dog on a leash or the tie out to keep them safe and supervised. I also will not let the dogs play unsupervised and look for markers of safe play. I expect to have visiting dogs crated if they are unsupervised, for their safety and my pets' as well. I have 2 crates for this purpose, one is an XL and the other a L. Crate time would be no more than 8 hours (overnight).
Home
Information Amanda B. would like to know about your pet
I need to know the dog's history (health, house training, signs of aggression, fears, etc.) to best prepare myself and help the dog be as happy as possible.
A typical day
I'd love to take the dogs on walks or runs through the neighborhood or near by parks. Whatever you feel comfortable with letting your dog do. We also have adequate indoor space for the dogs to play and lots of toys.

Availability
I work full-time from home currently, which gives me plenty of opportunity to interact with my animals throughout the day. I take Roux on walks around our neighborhood after my workday is done and on the weekends we tend to go on light hikes.
