Your dog's home away from home!

Pet care experience

I am a stay at home mom who adores her high maintenance dog and would love to help watch yours too! We have a clean, pet friendly home with a fenced in yard for potty and play. I am home 24/7 so your dog will have plenty of outside time, play time, potty time, snuggle time, etc. I can handle any medication needs or dietary needs. This is my home, not a kennel, so your dog will be our guest and get all of my attention. It will not be split between 50 other animals as a kennel operates. I have a dog and know how it feels to have to leave them behind. I want my dog in a home, not a kennel, so your dog will have that stay with me. I have an XL kennel for your pet that is in my home when the are not playing with us outside or in our home. We can follow your feeding schedule and let-out needs as well as walk your dog frequently for exercise. Please send your dog to our B & B! About this sitter: When you need to travel, the most peace of mind you can have with your pet is knowing they are at your home where they are most comfortable. I will come and care for them in your home for you. Prices start at $20 for each "let-out", depending on driving distance, includes a walk. I am a stay at home mom so I am free early AM through late evening to care for your pooch's needs and can accommodate your pet's potty routine and feeding schedule.

Amanda took great care of my dog! He was completely exhausted when he came home. She sent me pictures to let me know what he was doing. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter! I think my dog was sad to leave her house.

Our dog had another wonderful stay with Amanda and her family. She was tuckered out which makes it so worth our money :) I am so happy to have found a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Amanda was so easy to work with! She communicates very well about what to expect and I can tell that she really enjoys watching dogs. I can't wait to book another stay, my dog was very tired after her day which is worth every penny! I feel like my pooch was well taken care of and I'd recommend this sitter to others.

Without hesitation I would recommend Amanda as a dog caregiver. She and her family are wonderful and will love your pet like their own! You can tell instantly that she has a great deal of experience with dogs and gives them lots of attention. My dog didn't even notice I was gone the first time at her home, and he was perfectly content when I picked him up. So happy to have found her!

About my yard We have a 1/2 acre plot and most of that is the backyard. It is fenced and almost all grass to play in. We had a deck and a patio and there is really a ton of shade due to a very large birch tree near the house.

Information Amanda H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know their breed and also if they are up to date on Flea Prevention. I would also need to know their tolerance for kids as I do have 4 kids and first and foremost, I am a mom to them:) No vicious breeds can come here and the dogs have to be comfortable with children. The dog must be comfortable in a crate as that is where they will be when I need to leave or go to bed. They would never be with my kids unattended or unsupervised, but they do need to be familiar with kids.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I can walk the dog around my fenced in yard, but I can also walk the dog in our neighborhood. It is a family-friendly neighborhood with quiet sidewalks and also a park at the end of the street with a safe walking path! Your dog's sleeping arrangement In an XL dog crate in our home. The dog must be crate trained to prevent anxious stays here with the crate. This room is ceramic tiled and part of our home, but safe for dogs with the dog-proof flooring and direct access to fenced back yard. There is even a sink in the bar in this room for water 24/7. Time I'll spend with your dog Several hours. I am a stay at home mom so I am here most of the day. I plan to walk the dog several times. I also plan to play with it in our back yard and let him/her out to potty frequently. My dog space in my home is a large 20-24 addition with ceramic tile and lots of fun people amenities. I can snuggle on a couch with your dog and watch TV, etc. And I have a large XL crate for them to be securely housed in when I am not at their side. Time I'll spend with your dog Each visit I make to your home and your dog I will spend 45 minutes with your dog on a walk, feeding him, snuggling, play, etc. For every visit, I charge $20. Extra house-sitting services I can water plants, bring in mail, turn lights on and off, etc while you are away.

Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since a small child. My first dog was a toy fox terrier at the age of 12 and she was the greatest gift I had had as a child. She led me to my time as the director for the State of Ohio for Toy Fox Terrier Rescue. Since I have transitioned to English Bulldogs...they are a pure joy. I have always been the person someone will ask to take their dog if they can no longer care for it...and then in turn find it a good home once I understand what kind of dog it is. I am a dog person through and through and caring form them bring me true happiness. Since age 12 I have always had at least 1 dog...always.
