Calm, Fur-baby Aficionado; will run

Pet care experience

Can’t wait to meet your pup! I currently have two dogs that I live with (Maltese/poodle1yr and Havanese 2yrs), one that I visit on a weekly basis (Havanese 9yrs) and I’ve trained them all to sit, lay down and shake ;). I used to watch a lot of “Victoria the Dog Trainer” and “Ceaser Milan” in my free time :). I am obsessed with dogs, but this vegan loves all animals! I’ve had snakes, bearded dragons, fish, rabbits, hamsters, you name it! I will gladly extended my services to other animals, please ask. I am an ESL teacher back home for a few months (school break) which means my schedule is very open and flexible! Although, I would prefer to work during daylight hours if you choose to hire me to walk or run your pup. If you have any special requests please don’t hesitate to inquire, I currently reside in Los Gatos, but travel to Redwood City frequently.

Amanda was amazing with our little old man. She promptly arrived each visit and took care of our 14 year old pup. She sent us lots of photos and gave him lots of attention. She communicated with us and made sure our dog was well cared for and loved during our absence. We will be using Amanda as our go to sitter in the future.

Amanda is amazing! She was always on time and keep constant communication and updates listing how the pups did with each visit. Very professional and what speaks louder is how happy our pups were after we got back. I would highly recommend her but also want to be selfish because i want her to be able to walk our pups. We've added her as one of our trusted walkers. :)

I own 2 precious dogs that are like children to me and, like a parent, is extremely particular about having them in the care of anyone besides myself or my husband. Amanda is someone who I fully trust with the care my babies without question. She is extremely reliable, dependable, respectful, honest and most of all...caring and loving to all animals big and small. She stays at my home, where my pups feel more comfortable, and I don't worry for a minute that my pups aren't being spoiled and loved. My dogs have completely different temperaments...and she knows how to entertain both of them differently. They both absolutely adore her! I highly recommend Amanda to anyone needing her services. You will not be disappointed!

For anyone looking to hire a pet sitter who has a past experience handling animals, is knowledgeable about various dog breeds, is respectful, dependable, and trustworthy I would highly recommend Amanda for the job! From the start, Amanda showed a sharp awareness and understanding of the responsibilities that pet ownership entailed; and I highly appreciated her attention to detail. I felt reassured knowing that Amanda made it a point to really understand all elements of my dog’s personality and daily routine, from his diet and treat preferences to his walking and exercise routine. I was, also, impressed by how easily she bonded with my dog from the get go. At times, he can feel overwhelmed or apprehensive meeting new people, as he is not the most social. But I noticed that he warmed up to her quickly because of her gentle and friendly approach. In the past, I have had problems with other dog sitters and their ability to properly manage my dog’s daily health regimen involving his medication and skin care. However, this was in no way an issue with Amanda. She was very accommodating to my dog’s maintenance and special needs. While I was away, I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. In the times I am away for an extended duration, Amanda was of course respectful of household rules and very neat. She was sure to stay in communication with me on a regular basis, leaving me stress and worry free! On one occasion, to my surprise, she was even the one to teach my dog how to sit! When I returned, she gave me some dog training tips which I could apply to the future! All of which have been extremely helpful while teaching my dog basic commands. More importantly, though, my dog absolutely loves Amanda! He jumps for joy every time he gets to see her! She treats all animals with genuine love and care, as if they are her own. I could not imagine having anyone else to dog sit for us.
