Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving & Reliable
I’ve grown up around dogs and have always enjoyed being around them. While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs and am confident with walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining their usual routines. I also have extensive professional experience as a teacher of young children, which has developed my patience, responsibility, and ability to follow structured routines. I believe these are all caregiving skills that translate well to caring for pets, as well as having a professional attitude while doing it. I will care for your pet as I would any small being in my care and am happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind!

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for a pet in the clients home, I would treat their space with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own home. I will follow any instructions you leave closely, and respect your space as I would want mine to be. I also understand that inviting a new person into your home can feel stressful! Not only because of your pet, but because of your personal space as well. I want you to feel completely comfortable while you’re away, and I will do everything I can to earn and maintain your trust through clear communication and respect!
Ratings and reviews
Amanda was so caring with our dog, Heidi! She was so considerate and communicative. We can’t wait to rebook her
Amanda was wonderful with my kitty Steve! She was very communicative about when she was there, how he was doing, and what they did. Steve can be a bit of a butthead when it comes to new people but that did not matter and Amanda was great at accommodating him. I would definitely hire her again!
Amanda was punctual, communicative, and clear about what my dog Charlie was doing. Most important, she was sweet and kind to Charlie, giving her belly rubs and love. I appreciated her kind demeanor and how responsible she was in leaving everything the way I requested. I would request Amanda with enthusiasm next time I need someone to come walk and watch Charlie!
Amanda was great. On time responsive responsible. Made friends with our new pup very quickly, he didn't want to see her leave. We highly recommend Amanda for dog & house sitting.
Amanda took wonderful care of our cat Suki for the week we were away. She was so caring and communicative. She sent us frequent text updates and photos, checked in to make sure Suki had plenty of her favorite food, and even administered her medication! Suki is a very shy cat around new people, but I could tell from the photos and her demeanor when we returned that she quickly became very comfortable and loving towards Amanda. It’s always hard to leave your pet for a long trip, but I had no doubt that Suki was in great hands.
Amanda is one of the best caretakers I know, both with animals and children. I trust her wholeheartedly in caring for my cat while I am away! She is responsible, dedicated and nurturing, and I am so lucky to have her to depend on when I need cat care!

Schedule
As for right now, I am between jobs and looking for extra cash, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet.

- I’d love to know your pet’s normal routine, personality, likes and dislikes, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and safe. Please let me know about feeding schedules, medications, allergies, walking preferences, fears or sensitivities, behaviors to be aware of, and how they typically interact with people or other animals. I also appreciate knowing where their favorite toys, treats, leash, food, and other essentials are located, along with emergency contact and veterinary information. The more I know about your pet beforehand, the better I can care for them!
