Animal lover - large yard + WFH!

Pet care experience

Looking for an experienced dog sitter that you can trust with your family member? You've come to the right place! I am a 7 year Houston Boxer Rescue volunteer, animal shelter volunteer and the kind of person that brings home a stray once a week, (my sweet husband never knows what kind of day he’s in for haha). Above all I’m a loving dog mom of one (for now)! My husband and I are both animal lovers so you can feel at peace knowing that anyone that is in our home will be kind & caring to your animals. I have over 15 years of experience caring for animals and 35 years of loving them. My husband and I both work from home so there will always be some one with your pup. If we run an errand they will be created if you prefer or left to relax on the couch for a bit, but never longer then a few hours. We have a beautiful comfortable home with a large secure yard for the pups to sunbathe in through out the day. Rest assured your pup will always feel comfortable and loved during their stay, we will always care for your animals the same way I care for mine. Side note: We travel a lot so we don’t take on a lot of jobs through the year. We would ultimately love to find a couple we could swap sitting duties with! We watch yours and you watch ours. Let’s chat! Please feel send me a message to set up a meet & greet! Hugs, Amanda + Rob + Merci

Amanda and her husband made our lab girl feel comfortable and at home from our arrival. It is clear that they love dogs. We are so grateful for their caring and attentive help as for their clear and kind communication when we needed to find a last-minute, overnight sitter. We will definitely book again with this charming, compassionate couple for the peace of mind that they afforded us. Thank you so very much!

Amanda was awesome! She was willing to meet prior to the stay. When dropping our dog off she told me that she had purchased a homemade treat from a local dog bakery. During the stay she sent pictures and a video. Amanda told us that she took our dog to the dog park during the stay. We feel she went the extra mile with our dog. Thank you!

Amanda is a very sweet and sensitive woman who absolutely loves animals! She's that woman who will find the owners of the lost dog or nurture a baby bird back to health. Huge heart, loves animals (her own dog, Mercy, is one spoiled little girl) she knows how to love and nurture them and can be trusted to take the absolutely best care of your dog.
