At this time, I work a couple of per diem jobs, and I have a part-time remote job for part of the year. Walking / hiking with my dogs is one of my favorite activities, so I'm happy to do the same with yours!

About Amanda & Jefferson K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We can personalize the care and scheduling at your home to your liking. I imagine this would be easier to work out on a case by case basis :) Guest pups are never left out in the yard unattended. In the event I need to leave for short periods while we have guest pups, we have plenty of space and rooms to keep pups separate and comfortable.
Home
Information Amanda & Jefferson K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your fur babies have any specific or specialized needs or preferences, especially medically or behaviorally. Again, I'm sure we can work this out as we communicate more about you and your pup's needs!
A typical day
I am a pretty active person, and I am more than happy to take your pup on a long walk, hike (or possibly a short jog, ha!), or swim. We live very close to Titlow park. I'm also perfectly fine with just letting your pup outside and cuddling between.

Pet care experience
Hello! Thanks for stopping by! I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc. We also have some experience with pigs, cows, and horses :)... from 4-H to my husband's family's ranch. I also have experience giving medications to cats and dogs and taking care of pets that have seizures & diabetes. My husband and I have boarded pups in our home(s) for years, as well as I have walked and provided in-home visits, through Rover and a friend's pet-sitting company. We also used to foster dogs & puppies. :) A lot of our pictures are from when we used to live in Florida. After a number of years as a travel nurse, and taking care of pets while home between contracts in Ohio, we decided Tacoma is a wonderful place to live! We currently only board up to a maximum of 3 pups. We have a large fenced in yard, and hiking or walking (or swimming!) with pups is one of my favorite activities. :) I do have a part-time remote job for half the year, and I work very prn hours as a nurse. I absolutely love doing this, but please note I can't promise verbal "holds" for weeks. Rover penalizes you for this, plus it's difficult to know how to respond to others. We also don't know as many people or resources in Tacoma compared to previous places we've lived, so we are also not in a position to semi-permanently take in additional pets at this time or be super helpful in helping you find a new home for your pet. Sorry - and thanks!!
Reviews

Amanda was so great with our dog and extremely communicative! He had a great time and was sad to be leaving at the end. Highly recommend!


Amanda was amazing with our pups! We got lots of pictures and great updates by text. Would highly recommend her!

Great experience with Amanda. She provides regular detailed updates and lots of pictures and videos. We will definitely be booking with her again.


Amanda was awesome! Very communicative with lots of pictures and videos of the pups during our vacation. They came back just as happy as I left them :)
