About Amanda D.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a respectful, patient caring individual with lots of love and energy for animals. I am comfortable with crate trained animals, as well as those who sleep in the bed. I will make sure that your animal feels safe and comfortable by reading it's body language and communication around what it needs. I can be extremely affectionate and cuddly and also respectful of space depending on what each individual needs. I adore and respect every animal's unique way of expressing themselves, whether it be rolling around tail wagging, nervously keeping to their corner or being a bully and vocal when they want something.
Information Amanda D. would like to know about your pet
Although I have experience and comfort with timid and skittish dogs, please do let me know if they have any history of biting, especially around expectation to administer medications.
A typical day
A typical day might be a long leisurely morning walk, a short hike or a stroll around the neighborhood, depending on your dog's needs and energy level. Back home for tug of war, catch, treat time, snuggle time, nap time or chatting (yes I will talk to your animal). A good evening walk, pre or post dinner time to get all the sniffs in and explore what's been going on all day and back for some decompression, scratches and treats.

Loving, patient caretaker
Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs, cats, pigs, sheep, and cows. I have been living with and caring for animals for over 15 years, whether it be for walks, day care or house sitting and overnights. I have a lot of experience with shy, timid and traumatized dogs. I have a lot of patience and respect each animal's needs. I have experience with administering medications and using an e-collar.
Reviews

Amanda is an excellent communicator and was a perfect match for us and our (usually) shy doggy who took to her right away! She went above and beyond, keeping me updated and reassured with all the cute moments while I was out of town for a week. Cricket was comfortable with her so quickly, and it was so great to see the genuine joy she took in our funny gal. Would highly recommend her!

Amanda has suchhhh good energy and very clearly cares so deeply about dogs and fostering a trusting relationship with them (as well as with their parent!) She was super attentive, kind, and reliable. I will definitely be booking with Amanda again!

Amanda is incredible. No notes. Obsessed. So grateful for how much she loves our pup!


Absolutely incredible! Amanda went above and beyond the whole time we were away. I felt like I could actually enjoy my vacation because of her genuine care for my dogs. I beyond suggest her to take care of your animals
