Pet care experience

I love all pets like they're my own

Hello! My name is Amanda. I live in Tolland, CT with my husband and son. I have a lifetime of experience with animals of all kinds. Growing up I always had dogs and/or cats, as well as several other types of pets. I worked in a pet grooming salon for 6 1/2 years, and a doggy daycare for 1 year. I have also done pet walking and sitting for family and friends. I have owned and/or taken care of many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, ferrets, rabbits, birds, hamsters, and mice. We currently have a dog, cat, guinea pig, and turtle! I take care of and love each pet as if they are my own. I am a kind, compassionate, patient person who can't wait to meet your pets!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I love, care for, and treat all animals as if they are my own. I would always make sure the pet is safe, loved, and well cared for. I live with my husband and son who are both animal lovers as well.

Amanda went beyond a “regular” visit for my very shy adopted cat and came closer to befriending Ellie than any previous visitors! I appreciated her caring and consistent check-ins via text and photos and felt my cat was being well cared for in my absence.

Amanda did a wonderful job caring for our cat Serene while we were on vacation. She was extremely kind, caring and thoughtful, she provided excellent and constant communication about Serene’s well-being. She not only fed Serene and cleaned her litter box every visit like asked, but also played with her and bonded with her, and provided us with cute photos of her to look at while we were away and missing her. I would absolutely recommend Amanda for any pet owner who needs someone to do drop-ins with their pet while they are away, and would definitely book her again! Thank you Amanda 😊

Amanda is the most caring animal lover I have met and worked with. She is extremely dedicated to animals and her work. I have worked with with her for years and the love she has shown to animals and customers is extraordinary. I would recommend her to take care of anyone's pet.

Amanda has been a pet sitter for me many times over the years. From my dogs, cats fish other pets she has always taken very good care of them and I know they are in safe hands while I am away. I would recommend Amanda every time! Excellent with pets.

Schedule

Pet care is my full time job. My schedule is flexible, I can usually always find a time to fit in a furry friend! My husband is a stay at home dad, so I don't have to worry about having to find childcare in order to work.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Amanda can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
If the dog is staying in my home, I would need to know if the dog is a jumper or not. My husband has a chronic pain condition and can't handle larger dogs jumping on him. I would also need to know if the dogs are friendly with other dogs and cats, as I have a small dog and cat of my own. I have no breed restrictions as long as the dog is friendly.
