Furbabies staycation with Grams

Pet care experience

I worked 5 years as a Vet Tech in VA Beach. Afterwards, I was a stay at home mom. Our daughter is grown now and in college, but still lives with us. She loves animals as much as I do and is also a Rover sitter for your home. If I ever have to leave for errands, etc, she comes downstairs and hangs out with your furbabies. Come March 3, 2024 we will be taking in Ladybug the Great Dane. She has been a long time client and unfortunately her family has to rehome her due to unforseen circumstances. She does great with most dogs, especially the smaller ones. She's 7, so getting into her senior years. I am a grandmother now and my husband says I treat the dogs like my grandchildren lol. I would be honored if you considered me and my family to care for your furbabies and all their needs.

Amanda is an amazing person to trust as your Rover!! She watched our ~4.5 year old Bernese Mountain Dog (Hampton) over our wedding weekend. We were initially nervous since he had only stayed overnight with friends & family. We were worried that he’d become…difficult once he realized that he was with someone new/different. Amanda did a great job with making him feel comfortable & welcomed in her house though. By the time we picked him up, he was totally at ease with the environment! She was also a great communicator throughout the stay. Whether it was sending us photos/updates or quickly answering questions, she made it easy for us to relax. Amanda also went above & beyond to include Hampton in our wedding day photos. We’re forever grateful for that!

Both of our babies were immeasurably taken care of by Amanda. She was very understanding of our needs with the differences between our dogs due to age. She definitely exceeded them. She didn’t hesitate to ask questions to know details and characteristics about our fur babies. Will be sticking with her for any of our future bookings!

Safety, trust & environment

I follow your instructions to a T. I'm in my 50's and not as active as I once was, but still walk them as needed. I let them out every couple of hours, more often if needed, and we cuddle a lot. I love to read during the day and watch TV in the evenings. These are ideal times for pets, cuddles and loving

Information Amanda B. would like to know about your pet

I have been trained and qualified for any of your dogs special needs. I worked at a state of the arts Veterinary clinic and was trained by the very best. Please be very specific and detailed about your pets needs. The more detailed the better so I do exactly what you and your furbabies need

A typical day

A typical day in my home is waking up around 7am, taking your furbabies out first thing, make their breakfast and my coffee while they're out. Once they come in, they eat breakfast. Afterwards is up to their schedule. If they need to go back out, or a walk, we do that. Afterwards, it's a chill morning with me reading and loving on your furbabies. I play with them throughout the afternoon and spend time outside if the weather is nice. Another walk if needed. Dinner between 5-6, unless otherwise specified. One last walk and relaxing until bedtime. I let them in the back yard one last time before bed. This schedule is easily amended depending on needs. I'm very flexible.

I am currently looking for a job from home for some extra income in these hard times. I will only work part-time, so your furbabies will be my first priority.
