About Amanda H.
Safety, trust & environment
I provide high-quality, reliable care through twice-daily drop-in visits. Each session covers essential needs—feeding, fresh water, and dedicated playtime—to ensure your pet feels loved and secure. I also offer professional dog walking services for an additional fee to keep your pet active and happy
Information Amanda H. would like to know about your pet
To ensure a seamless experience, we will discuss: Health: Medications, allergies, and vet contact info. Behavior: Social style, triggers, and training cues. Routine: Feeding schedules, bathroom habits, and favorite "happy" spots. Safety: Household access and emergency contacts. I would love to meet you and your furry or feathered friends!
A typical day
A typical day in my care is all about routine, engagement, and plenty of love tailored specifically to your pet's unique personality. Because I am an active person who prioritizes both physical fitness and animal wellness, I approach every visit as an opportunity for your pet to thrive. A Look at My Day My schedule is balanced by my professional commitments, which means my availability is most consistent during the evenings and throughout the weekends. Morning/Afternoon: Before or after my workday, I dedicate time to focused, high-energy activity. Evening/Weekends: This is when I provide the "meat" of my pet sitting services. I prefer to integrate into your pet’s existing rhythm—maintaining their feeding times, medication schedules, and favorite nap spots so they feel secure. Fun Activities for Your Furry Friends I believe that a tired pet is a happy, well-behaved pet! Depending on the breed, age, and energy level of your dog or pet, I love to incorporate activities that go beyond just a standard walk: Adventure Walks: If your pup is a high-energy breed, we won't just walk around the block. I love taking dogs on sniff-heavy walks or brisk, steady-pace excursions to get their heart rates up and their brains engaged with the environment. Interactive Playtime: Whether it’s a game of fetch in the yard, working on basic training cues, or using puzzle toys to challenge their minds, I ensure that our time together is mentally stimulating. Structured Socialization & Calm Time: For dogs who enjoy it, we can practice calm walking manners. Conversely, for senior pets or those who prefer a slower pace, I am more than happy to provide gentle brushing, focused companionship, and relaxing belly rubs. Customized "Zoo" Time: Since I have a bird and a multi-dog household myself, I have plenty of experience managing different species and play styles. I treat every animal as an individual, ensuring that if I am caring for multiple pets, everyone gets their "special time" without competition. My philosophy is that your pet should have a blast while you’re gone—not just wait around for your return. Whether it is an extra-long game of tug-of-war or simply settling in for some quiet evening snuggles on the couch, my priority is ensuring they feel happy, secure, and genuinely cared for. Does your pet have a favorite toy or a specific game they love to play, or are they more of a "relax on the porch" kind of companion?

Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Amanda, and I am thrilled to offer professional, compassionate pet sitting and dog walking services. With a lifelong passion for animals and a home filled with my own "zoo"—including a Doberman, a Boxer, a Boston Terrier, and a bird—I understand firsthand that pets are not just animals; they are cherished family members who deserve the highest standard of care and attention. My Experience and Approach Having grown up with horses and spent years training off-the-track Thoroughbreds, I bring a wealth of experience in animal behavior, patience, and handling. I am comfortable with dogs of all temperaments and sizes, and I am happy to accommodate specific needs, whether that means high-energy exercise or calm, gentle companionship for a senior pet. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for your pets while you are away. I offer: Energetic Dog Walking: Engaging, outdoor walks to keep your pup healthy and happy. Reliable Pet Sitting: Providing companionship, feedings, and plenty of TLC in the comfort of your home. Routine Maintenance: Ensuring your pet’s schedule remains consistent to reduce anxiety. Professionalism and Availability I pride myself on being organized, reliable, and deeply committed to the safety of the animals in my care. Because I maintain a full-time career in the housing industry, I approach my pet care services with the same level of professional discipline and accountability that I bring to my real estate and mortgage work. I am generally available during the evenings and on weekends, and I am happy to work with you to find a schedule that suits your needs. My home life is deeply integrated with my pets, so I understand the importance of clear communication and updates—you can always count on me to be punctual, communicative, and transparent about your pet's time with me. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry, feathered, or four-legged friends to see how I can best support your needs. Let's make sure your pets feel loved, active, and right at home while you're busy with your day! Are you looking for recurring walks, or are you hoping to schedule care for an upcoming vacation or trip?
