Big and Small I Care for All
Pet care experience
Hi, my name is Amanda. I have over 10 years of experience caring for all different animals ranging from birds to reptiles and have walked dogs of all different temperaments and personalities. I also have over 4 years of experience training multi-purpose service dogs, one of which is currently mine . I currently have four dogs, and three birds in my home. Whether it is just a drop in or a boarding they will be cared for and well loved. I would love to come visit or care for your beloved pets. I am available during most weekdays from 8 am till around 7 pm. I love my job and am looking forward to working with your dog and making a new puppy friend. If boarding with me they will get a minimum of an hour going all the way up to 2 hours of exercise each day. Exercises include long walks, biking (if the dog wants to and if weather allows), swimming(weather dependent), dog park visits. They will get out at least 3-5x a day. I have a fenced in yard so on days we don't get out as much they can romp and play in my nice long yard with the other pups in my home. Your pup will get top notch care while here. If wanted I can do a deshedding treatment (fur)or a bath and brush out(hair) so your pup goes home looking and smelling fresh after days of outdoor fun. I'm at home majority of the day so I'll be able to take them out at least 3 times a day. They will spend time in a crate when I am not home. I will visit for up to the amount of time selected and take them for a walk if requested. If it is a cat I will give them fresh food and water, give them attention if they want it and clean the litter box if requested. I'm home majority of the day so they'll get at least an hour of exercise and will be supervised whenever out of their outside of the kennel. Dogs go for walks when I'm first getting to know them and once I've gotten to know the pup and I see they'll do well in group play they'll get at least 60 minutes a day of outside play with other pups along with the normal walks throughout the day. When the dogs aren't supervised or I have to leave home or at night they'll stay in their crate so they stay safe and comfortable. For drop ins I'll provide a walk for dogs (if wanted) or let them in the yard and for cats I'll do whatever instructions you leave along with attention if they want it.
