Pets

Our pup was our furbaby!

Pet care experience

We are big dog lovers and recently had to say good bye to our soft coated wheaten terrier after 9 amazing years as our furbaby. We’re not quite ready to welcome a new pup to the family full time so we’ve filled the void through pup sitting! My husband and I work (most days) from home. We live in the heart of Old Town. We take advantage of all the parks and take long walks in the evenings and on the weekends! We’ll only accept care days that we will be home the majority of the time so we can be fully attentive to your pup. Ideally, prefer to watch one dog at a time for the same reason. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you! I work from home most of the time so would be with your pup the whole time if we schedule the days the I’m home. We live in a townhouse. Your pup would sit with me in my office and then take walks around Founders Park that is close by

Amanda was great taking care of Fiona for us. Very communicative and sent pictures and updates. Would happily have her watch Fiona for us again.

Amanda was a dream to work with. She was flexible with our schedule dynamic, she sent photos, she gave Chica oodles of exercise and loving. We would use her again any time. Thank you, Amanda

Amanda is simply the best! Our pup Jolene can’t wait to go play at Amanda’s house and, if we happen to go by her house on our walks, will stop and sit on her front porch until I break the news we aren’t staying this time. Great communication with us and lots of love for Jolene every time we’ve used her services. Highly recommend (although I’d love to keep her my little secret!)
