Highlights
Pet care experience
Work from home Counselor and Coach
I grew up in a family that cared for dogs, cats, pigs, guinea hens, goats, rabbits, pigs, and even a peacock at one time! So, I have a lot of experience loving and caring for animals of all types. While I grew up with a range of animals and love them all dearly, I am currently available to watch dogs only, as my husband is allergic to cats. Please reach out if you have another type of animal that you think would do well in our household. Overall, my husband and I have experienced how nice it is to secure a professional connection with a dog-sitter that we know is caring for our pet at a level that we expect. We hope that we can be that for you and your dog! We are very professional and responsible humans that put the needs of our pet-children and other's pet children first, and look forward to helping you out in your time of need.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Amanda and Josh were so wonderful with our dog, and their dog Rosie is such a great playmate! I received lots of updates. Amanda was in tune to my dog’s personality and activity needs, taking plenty of walks, and giving all the snuggles and support while we were away.
Amanda & Joshua were welcoming and friendly. We appreciated the daily pictures and activity updates.
Amanda was so great. Jack was like a dearly loved foster brother to her dog Rosie and I was able to relax on vacation without worries about him.
Best dog sitter ever, Birdie loved Amanda and came home a very tired and happy pup. Thank you!
Amanda and Joshua were awesome hosts - Goose got daily exercise and clearly had an amazing time. We highly recommend!
Amanda is amazing. She’s so easy to work with and always takes the best care of my furbaby. She’s very active, so I always know my dog is getting plenty of exercise and attention, not just the basics. I have peace of mind when my dog is with her, and it’s a no-brainer to call Amanda anytime I need a pet sitter. Highly recommend!

I work from home as a school counselor and coach Track and Field at a local high school. I am home all day, save for February-June when I am out for 3 hours in the afternoons during track practice.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a 4 bedroom home with a yard in Troutdale. We also exercise doggos via walks/hikes/runs and excursions to the dog park. We have an energetic 4 year old dog who is very social and active. She grew up with a hound dog brother that passed away last year, so loves having a friend around. While she is a medium sized dog (25-30 lbs), she does well with friendly dogs of all sizes and loves being their little side-kick or wrestling partner. She responds well to a range of fellow-dog temperaments, leaving them alone when they ask or playing non-stop with them if they have some extra energy.

A typical day
I work from home and let the animals out for breaks and walks throughout the day. I run in the mornings, so if you're dog likes runs I'll likely bring them along for part or all of the run. In the evenings we may do a long walk after dinner, head to the dog park, river, or creek; and on the weekends we like heading to the Lewis & Clark dog park or going on longer hikes.
