Compassionate, reliable pet care

Pet care experience

Greetings fellow pet-lovers! As an educator and life-long animal advocate and care-giver, I found myself searching for a fulfilling way to help people and pets in my community. I chose in home animal companion care as my specialty service! In my experience our pets are happier and experience less stress in their familiar environment, where diet and exercise routines are uninterrupted, travel trauma for both you and your pet is eliminated, and your pet's exposure to illness is minimized, or eliminated. My background includes more than 30 years combined professional and volunteer experience in education and holistic animal health/companion care - including geriatric and special needs pets, fostering, as well as related contracting for various pet sitting, boarding and equestrian facilities. My services include, • Daily walks provide fresh air and exercise for a healthy, happier dog. • Drop in visits allow your pet to be cared for in a familiar and comfortable environment where routines can be maintained. I will provide fresh water, meals, play/exercise, and administer any necessary medications. You will also receive daily email, or text updates regarding your pet. • Overnight pet sitting includes pm+am drop in care with overnight companionship. This is great for pets who have special needs, puppies, or elderly pets who need to be let out more frequently. In addition to the individual love, attention, and care given to your pet, you have the added benefit of mail/newspaper and garbage collection. I will also water houseplants/gardens, and alternate lighting, curtains, or blinds in your absence.

Mandy took care of my dog, Tino, many, many times. She is such a warm presence that Tino responded to her immediately and Mandy's home soon became Tino's home away from home. He always comes home with a spring in his step,

I am excited to write a testimonial for Amanda as she is an amazing person. She is compassionate and caring, pays attention to detail and is extremely loving and gentle. I was honored to have her care for my dog, Peter, when he was extremely sick.

I have known Amanda for many years. She has always been very concerned about pet & animal welfare. She is the first person I go to for advice about my dog. She is kind, sympathetic, & responsible. I can't think of anyone I would rather have care for my companion.

Amanda Gerber's middle name should be "loves animals" .. Amanda is one of the most loving and caring people that I know when it comes to caring for others' pets, as well as her own. Amanda has been a pet care giver for well over 30 years, and a pet lover her entire life. I have utilized Amanda for my pet care needs and I can vouch for her pet care, sense of responsibility, attention to detail and love for animals. I would utilize Amanda's pet care services again at any time and I would definitely recommend her pet care services as well.
