Active & attentive sitter/walker!
Pet care experience
My entire life I've been surrounded by dogs. Growing up my family consistently had dobermans, so when I went to university and decided I couldn't live without a pet, I rescued a very timid hound mix (Aspen) of my own. Raising and training Aspen has been my greatest challenge yet, however, through my experience caring for her unique needs I have learned to be attentive, patient, and proactive. Aspen has not yet made the move to Vancouver, so as I am new to the city and waiting to bring her out next summer, I would love to use my free time to care for your pets! I live a very active lifestyle, genuinely enjoying walking and spending time outdoors, so I certainly have the energy to keep up with your pet. Working from home, I have a very flexible schedule to accomodate varying times for walks, drop-in visits, and in-house sits. I am also happy to accomodate any COVID precautions you may prefer. I was a dog-walker in both Paris and Toronto, so have plenty of experience with both consistent and occasional clients. This experience includes working with young puppies, to more mature dogs. I ensure to learn all significant/relevant information prior to the service, in order to provide the most personalized care experience for your pet. I have a reputation of being reliable and trustworthy, and am known to develop strong, genuine relationships with my pet and parent clients!
Reviews
Amanda is so wonderful to schedule and communicate with and I always feel so confident leaving Molly with her. I know that she’s in great hands and Molly always comes back so happy! I can not recommend her enough!
For several months Amanda has been walking my Australian Shepherd puppy who I know isn't always easy! Amanda is a pleasure to communicate with, always arrives on time, and is very patient with Pippa. Pippa is always happy to see Amanda and comes home tuckered out!
Amanda was great dog-walker and occasional sitter for my dog, Chester. She took the time to get to know Chester and formed a special bond with him. While on their walks she respected his insecurities with other dogs and slowly worked on improving his social skills. Amanda was great at listening to Chester's individualized needs and my desires for their walks. She stuck to the schedule we agreed on and always walked Chester the amount of time I requested- rain or shine, which he loved! After just a few walks he knew exactly why she came to our house and was always so excited to see her. Amanda is a very genuine and kind individual, and I am confident she'll work well with any dog and their family! She was truly amazing with Chester and I look forward to the day when she is back in town to resume her walking/sitting services with him.
