Pet care experience
Work from home!
I work from home / husband is home during the day! We also have a teenage daughter - and have lots of time for your dog! I have 5 regular clients who I’ve been sitting regularly for a few years now. I recently turned off the function to accept new clients but am now ready to welcome 🤗 some new fur friends into our home and can’t wait to meet you! My entire life, I've owned or cared for dogs and take great pride in embracing the responsibilities of it as well the joy it brings. Currently we have 2 very friendly French Bulldog who get along with all and will welcome any dog in with open paws. Our routine is to have a small morning walk as soon as everyone wakes up followed by breakfast. Then an afternoon bigger walk or adventure.. this is usually around the park, lake, river, beach and/or under tree canopy trails. Evening time brings another short walk followed by dinner. (Potty breaks in between if needed). If the weather is warm and sunny, we may bring the dogs along for a coffee at an outdoor cafe, a dog friendly patio for a bite to eat, a picnic at the park or stroll along the beach. Scattered throughout the day is ample indoor playtime, treats, cuddles, pets, chew toys, naps on the sundeck or curled up next to the fireplace (or couch - whatever they prefer!) If your loved one enjoys ball play, we play ball. If your loved one enjoys tug toy, we play tug. If your loved one likes to lounge more than walk - they lounge more than walk! We adopt your routine as much as needed but have also noticed that all the pups we’ve cared for easily adjust to our routine and comfortably find their place in the pack. Have been through training with certified trainers and have read multiple dog training books. It's very important to raise dogs as balanced. I follow Cesar Millan's philosophy of being the pack leader while handling everything with calm energy. Hope to see you soon!

Ratings and reviews
Amanda and her family are amazing! They take the best care of our dog. He’s stayed with them multiple times and loves being part of their pets’ pack.

As usual Amanda took such amazing care of Angus, and it always looks like he has such a blast playing with Hugo, Paris, and the rest of her family!!

Amanda and her family always do a terrific job of caring for our Leo!

Angus ALWAYS has such a blast staying with Amanda and her family! I love all the photos and videos that she sends of Angus, I really feel at ease leaving him in her care. Thanks again Amanda!!

This was our dog’s 7th stay, that probably says enough about I feel about her as a sitter. She’s the best! Our dog loves her, her family, but most of all their dog, Hugo. They’re best buds

Our Leo enjoyed another fantastic stay with Amanda and her loving family. We couldn't be happier with their care.

Schedule
Work from home so there is always time to play and supervise. Do not leave them unattended or alone in the home very often and if we do it’s for a very short time.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Very attentive and caring to the needs, energy level, quirks and personality types of various animals and will follow your rules, boundaries and limitations for your pet so that there is consistency and comfort. I have extensive experience with barking, anxiety, special needs care, mobility issues, elderly care, post surgery care and anxious / aggressive behavior. I only board 1 dog at a time in addition to my own dog. (2 total = yours and mine). Dog walking can accommodate multiple at a time.

A typical day
