Information Amanda H. would like to know about your pet

All I need to know is what are the medical concerns, do they bite, how are they with kids and strangers. If they are crated and if they are I need the kennel to be brought if you are able. I just need to know what to look out for. I do not care the breed I love all animals.

A typical day

I love to walk! Your dog and I can walk as much as your dog would like! I love to cuddle, scratch, throw balls, and run with dogs. We have a fenced in part of the yard and also a lot of unfenced area. We are on 40 acres there is plenty of room to run here!

Pets

Animals are friends and family!!

Pet care experience

I always treat animals like family! I bought my first pet at 5 years old. I saved him from my neighbor as he was dying from chicken bones. My life has been full of animals ever since. I will look after any pets (spiders or other insects as long as I do not have to play with them.) I personally own three dogs. My sister has three cats that I look after many times a year as they love to cruise. Two of her cats are diabetic and have to have shots several times a day. They each get different amounts, different food types and amounts, and each use different litter boxes! I am a dog and horse trainer. I have a clean back ground, animals love me. I am the type that gravitated towards the animals at parties and get togethers! All I need is written instructions and I can and will get it all done! I am an open book if you have any questions please just ask! This and being a mom is my full time job. I am able to spend a lot of time with your fur babies!! We love to be outdoors!! I am here a ever weekend except for once a month. I have a fenced in area for your fur babies to play in. I try to treat your baby as I would my own. I also try to keep things as close as they are at their home so they are less stressed!! While your pets are here I will treat them like they are my own. I spend quality time with each baby individually and collective as a group. I will brush your babies everyday. They will have free roam through my house. My daughter helps me look after all the babies. A lot of the babies I sit attach to her and will spend unsupervised time with her. If this is not what you would like please let me know how you would like for your baby to be treated and we will comply with your wishes. This and being a mom are my wonderful job. I get to play with our babies all day. I have only one weekend a month that I am routinely not here. My father-n-law lives beside us so there is almost an adult here. I have a fenced in backyard for your babies to run and play in. I always do a fence check, with a new baby, to make sure everyone will be safe playing together in the yard and or the house. While your pets are here I will treat them like they are my own. I spend quality time with each baby individually and collective as a group. I will brush your babies everyday. They will have free roam through my house. My daughter helps me look after all the babies. A lot of the babies I sit attach to her and will spend unsupervised time with her.

Amanda has been a blessing. I am new to the area and have travel hour and work hours issues that she has graciously accommodated. My pup is also a Cushings and she follows his eating protocol. If you’re in need of a sitter immediately she is very reliable. Thank you Amanda!
