Pet care experience

Your Pet’s Second Favorite Human 🐾

I pride myself on being more than just a pet sitter—I aim to provide attentive, personalized care that keeps pets comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and well cared for in their own environment. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to treat every pet like my own—with care, respect, and genuine affection.

Amanda was great with this trip, I was/am running with work and family. And one of my little ones isn’t feeling great, Amanda provided excellent updates - which I truly appreciate. She is very caring and responsible with her clients.

Awesome host for my pup. She took Missy to the park multiple times and kept me updated, it was perfect! I highly recommend.

I can’t say enough good things about the care my babies received from Amanda today while I was at my daughter’s wedding. She kept in close contact with me all throughout the day, providing photos from each visit to my home. I have 3 standard doodles and a calico kitty all of whom love the attention and affection shown to them at each of the three visits to my home today. Her care and attention to them gave me peace of mind so I could fully enjoy my daughter’s special day. Without hesitation i highly recommend her services to anyone needing care for their fur babies. Thanks Amanda!

Amanda is great, this was our first Rover service (in a new home), and she handled every thing perfectly. She reacted to each animals personality and “vibe” - and the photos show that everyone was fine. We are very happy and relieved!! Thank you Amanda!

Amanda did a great job watching our pup over the weekend while we were away! She has great communication skills and was so understanding when our dog had an unexpected accident and needed a little extra love and care.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 8–5, so pets in my care need to be comfortable staying home for a few hours during the day. Before and after work, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, feeding, and potty breaks to keep them happy and settled. In the evenings, I’m home and available for playtime, walks, and lots of one-on-one attention. Weekends are a bit more flexible—I’m in and out, but I always plan my schedule around the pets in my care to ensure they’re not left alone for long stretches without a check-in. Because of this routine, I’m the best fit for pets who are already house-trained, well-adjusted, and able to be left alone for short periods without destructive behavior. My goal is to provide a calm, structured environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I tailor my care based on each pet’s needs and the service requested, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, feeding on your pet’s normal schedule, and daily exercise or playtime. I keep routines consistent to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also make sure they have a safe space to relax and decompress. Because I do work during the weekdays, pets staying with me need to be house-trained and able to be left alone for a few hours without destructive behavior. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything as familiar as possible. I follow your pet’s usual routine closely—feeding, walks, medications if needed, and any specific instructions you provide. I spend quality time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone, and I keep your home tidy and respected while you’re away. For both services, I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or needs. My goal is to make your pet feel secure and cared for, no matter where they are.
