Experienced Dog care giver
Pet care experience
I love dogs. I have had experience caring for and living with dogs my whole life. I am familiar with non-aggressive methods of dog socialization. I like walking dogs, and being outside going on an exploration adventures with them. I have experience with rescue dogs, and have successfully socialized two of them now into my family from SSH and Midwest Animal Rescue. I promise to respect your companions and homes to the best of my ability. I am experienced with both verbal and nonverbal methods. I am willing to help maintain any training routines you may have. I feel confident in my ability to socialize successfully, and build a functional relationship with you and your companion. My home includes one dog (Sallara). We are all active individuals. We play active games, maintain grooming, and chase lasers. I am also experienced in giving medication. I have cared for senior cats and dogs. I have varied first aid experience. I am also willing to help with grooming, as I am familiar with the extra fur dog that gets made with spring undercoat shedding. In addition I only work from home. I like being at home with my furry companions. My Sallara loves other dogs and enjoys having companions to play with.
Reviews
Amanda was awesome and helped me out last minute!
Amanda was great! We needed a last minute sitter and she stepped up for us. Our pup is still shy around dogs but when I went to pick him up, he was playing and having a blast with Amanda’s dog! He came home and fell right asleep, a sure sign he had a blast. We will be using Amanda again!
Reggie is always excited to go to Amanda’s and tired when he leaves! Perfect combination!!!
Reggie has a blast at Amanda’s house. Her pup is so patient and gentle with our little guy!
