Pet care experience

Having grown up on a farm and surrounded by various animals, my pet care experience is extensive and deeply ingrained. From nurturing newborn alpacas to handling our pets everyday needs, I have a wealth of knowledge in tending to their well-being. Additionally, having cherished pets of my own over the years has further honed my understanding of their unique requirements and behaviors. My background instills confidence in providing compassionate and skilled care for any furry or feathered companion that comes my way.

Amanda was great! We had a lovely video call before I asked her to walk my dog Sam. She followed all directions and I think Sam was very happy to see her.

Amanda has been such a pleasure to work with. I wish I could take her to Texas with me. Winnie will miss you and Moe bunches. Thank you Amanda!

Safety, trust & environment

Living on the second floor of a quiet community with a courtyard just outside my door and nearby woods, I provide attentive pet care both at home and for clients. In my home, I ensure pets have a comfortable and secure space to relax, whether it's a cozy pet bed or their own crate if preferred. Regular walks and adventures in the nearby woods offer them ample exercise and stimulation. With plenty of playtime, love, and a variety of pet toys on hand, I make sure they feel right at home and well-cared for throughout their stay.

Information Amanda G. would like to know about your pet

*Please note* - I need to know if your pet hasn’t been treated for fleas and ticks (it’s not a deal breaker either way, my animals are treated, but it means that I’ll need to be very careful with where we walk, I.e. we might skip exploring woods). Other than that, important things for me to know ahead of time include medical details, behavior, and temperament to address specific needs and create a safe environment. Knowing your pet's daily routine ensures I maintain familiarity and minimize disruptions. I'm curious about their interactions with other animals allows for a harmonious stay. Up-to-date contact information for the owner or emergency contact is crucial, as well as any kind of warning signs. With dogs, understanding their training level and commands helps with effective communication. If there's something you've been really trying to train your dog to do, please let me know! By gathering these key details, I can provide personalized and attentive care, making their stay enjoyable and stress-free for both your pet and you.

A typical day

My top priority is ensuring that the pets I care for have a blast during their stay. We'll embark on exciting adventures, starting with regular walks in the courtyard just outside my home, where they can bask in the fresh air and enjoy the greenery. For dogs, we can head to the nearby dog park for a change of scenery and some socialization. Playtime is always a highlight, and I have an assortment of pet toys to keep them engaged. I like to learn new things about how to best keep your animals engaged, so if you have any suggestions, just let me know. My aim is to make every pet's stay memorable and fun-filled, ensuring they leave with happy memories and a wagging heart.

My love for animals makes them an essential part of my life, and I prioritize their well-being with the same dedication I give to coding. Whether it's feeding my pets, taking them for refreshing walks, or engaging in playtime, I ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. It's a win-win situation that keeps me both productive and connected to nature.
