Responsible, Reliable Pet Care!
Pet care experience
I cannot remember a time in my life where I did not have multiple animals in my home. I grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, and fish and learned how to care for each of them. I have experience with animals aged 6 months to 13 years and am able to handle all energy levels. I have cared for dogs weighing 125lb to 20lbs and feel comfortable walking larger breeds. I have a lot of experience giving medication and caring for elderly dogs. I have cared for the pups and cats of many friends and family for short term and longer term stays. My fiance is in the military so I have also watched the dogs of his co-workers who were going on mini deployments. I treat every animal like they are my own and care for their happiness and safety as much as my own pups!
Reviews
Amanda was my go to person to watch my pup while stationed in CA. She helped out more times than I can count. She LOVES animals and always jumped at the opportunity, even if it was last minute, to watch my boy. She is very responsible and so so loving, and has always treated my pup as her own.
Amanda has watched several of our dogs through the years. She walked our 2 high energy dogs and took care of our small dog's emotional needs. She helped us with food and administering medication for our older dogs. She has always been very pleasant and has never let us down.

I would like to know their temperament/ likes & dislikes, Any special/medical needs, and just a general overview just to get to know the pup better!
A typical day
Our typical day starts in the backyard helping me in my garden (grape tomatoes for everyone), we usually spend time throwing balls and sticks in our backyard, play in the doggy pool, and with our sprinkler. We love to relax on the couch and try to have some kinda snack like a lick mat or treat maze for some extra mental stimulation! We have our daily walk around our little neighborhood, but we also like to walk around our local park as well!
