Pet care experience

I live in the heart of Richmond (the museum district) and have access to a safe neighborhood for walks. I have rescued two dogs Izzy & Sadie (we just recently lost Izzy from congestive heart failure) & they are my life & joy. Izzy had a broken leg that was infected when rescued, I took care of her, sometimes taking many trips to the vet during the week for medicine & together my vet & I healed her back to health. Sadie was a rescue dog who I fostered first for roughly a year in DC (when moving to Richmond I decided to adopt her because she had separation anxiety who had already attached herself with me). Because I have senior dogs living out their glory days I specialize in caring for dogs in their later years. Izzy & Sadie act like pups sometimes but for the most part they like to sleep between walks/dog park. My two dogs are my children & would take care of any dog like they were my own. My availability is rather flexible but would love at least 24 hours notice for any adjustments needed to agreed times & always prefer a meet & greet before booking as I try to be flexible, however last min plans generally are not comfortable for me as I do plan my week out & walk & care for dogs outside of my home so I try to be fair to all my clients so I ask for consideration if your plans change. I look forward to working with you & your dog(s). [Unfortunately at this time I can’t care for puppies in my house or dogs not house trained or use potty pads unless It's an established client]

Amanda was the greatest puppy sitter while we were out of town for a week. We looked forward to her texts with photos and videos every day. My 2 had a great time with her 2 ❤️ We will definitely have Amanda watch our babies again. Thank you!!

Amanda always takes great care of Oliver! He loves going to her house, and she’s always flexible and communicative.

Amanda was so awesome! She sent lots of pictures and updates and took great care of Oliver. I picked up a very happy (and tired!) dog from all the playtime and walks he enjoyed while staying at Amanda’s house!
