Safety, trust & environment

I will listen to whatever you need! I believe it’s important to respect what the owner wants for their pet. It is not my place to overstep, but to make your pet as comfortable and safe as possible by sticking to routines and behaviors they’re used to!

Information Amanda D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any reactivities. I want approach them the correct way as to earn their trust. This is also helpful for walks when walking by other people/dogs/vehicles so I know how to properly react for them.

A typical day

I would love to make sure your pet is being stimulated and releasing their energy as much as possible during my visits so the time they are alone they are snoozing away. I’d like to know their favorite activities/toys/places to walk to make them as comfortable and happy as possible :)

This was our second time having Amanda sit our fur babies and we will continue to use her for future visits! Thanks again, Amanda!

Amanda has always been amazing and reliable with our cat when we are away, and she put our minds at ease again when we added a second cat to the family and took our first trip away from them, especially since our older cat has new needs now. Very appreciative of how communicative she is. Our new cat, who is shy at first, warmed to her right away.

As always, Amanda takes great care of Puma and Lynx. I’m always at ease knowing that they are in good hands when she comes by to check on them when we are away. She’s also very kind and gracious.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
