Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with the same attention and love I would give my own. In their home or mine, I make sure they have regular walks, playtime, and companionship. I follow all feeding instructions, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, clean environment. I also provide plenty of attention and reassurance to make sure pets feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away.

Information Amanda J. would like to know about your pet

It’s really helpful to know your pet’s personality, routine, and any special needs ahead of time! I like to understand things like their feeding schedule, favorite activities, any anxieties, and health or medication needs so I can provide the best care and make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy, active, and comfortable while their owners are away! Depending on the pet’s personality and needs, I enjoy fun activities like long walks, playful fetch sessions, gentle cuddles, and mental enrichment games. I also make sure to give plenty of love, attention, and supervision so your furry friend feels safe and cared for. Every pet is unique, so I adapt activities to keep them happy, stimulated, and relaxed.

Happy Walks, Wagging Tails 🐾

Pet care experience

I have always loved animals and have had dogs my entire life. I’ve cared for and walked several neighbors’ and family pets, gaining experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. As a nurse practitioner, I’m happy to administer medication with instructions if needed. I am responsible, reliable, and caring, and I will treat your pet as my own, ensuring they are happy, safe, and well-loved.

Amanda was absolutely wonderful with my little guy. She cared for him from early in the morning and was so kind and flexible with my early evening pickup, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, she showed him genuine warmth, patience, and care—the kind that gives you real peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found Amanda and feel very lucky to have her as part of my support system. She’s exactly the kind of caring, trustworthy person you hope to find in your community. Highly recommend!

Amanda was wonderful! She was warm and kind to my dog during our meet & greet. She made us both feel comfortable right away, and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter.

Amanda was wonderful! She watched our dog while we were away on spring break, and was so welcoming and flexible and communication was easy and great. Our dog had a great time! We will definitely be asking for Amanda’s help again in the future.

Amanda took care of our 11 year old dog for the first time recently while we travelled. Amanda did a great job taking care of our old girl! She was very mindful and gentle with our pet, sent us lots of pictures while we traveled, and also some wonderful texts too. We could see how relaxed and happy our dog was when we picked her up! We would definitely ask Amanda again to board our pet, and we give her our highest recommendation.
