A walk a day keeps the vet away!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs all my life! My family currently has two Border Collies (Inky and Sherlock) that I help take on walks, feed, and give medicine to. We rescued Sherlock when he was about 1 year old but adopted Inky as a puppy. I learned about and helped out with the puppy training during that time. Sherlock is much older now and takes medication for a few different health concerns which I help give him as well. In addition to the care at home, I also regularly take them both on walks around the neighborhood or on the greenway. Growing up, taking care of our dogs was my main job to help out with around the house. I really love taking care of both of them and would love to help out other owners in the area as well by dog sitting and walking!

I contacted Amanda a few days before my trip and she was quick to respond. She immediately set up a meet and greet with my dogs and I. Amanda is a kind person and my dogs were comfortable with her as soon as they met! Over the weekend she sent me pictures and updates when she visited. Thank you so much Amanda for taking care of my dogs!

Amanda did a awesome job watching my two Girls. Amanda did what she said when she said she would. If you want a dependable level headed young lady to watch your fur babies I strongly suggest asking Amanda. I will definitely be asking her to watch my furbabies again.

Amanda is my daughter. We have always had dogs as pets. We also had a cat. Since Amanda was a toddler, I taught her the proper way to treat animals. When she was old enough, one of her jobs was to help us care for our pets. Since her mid teens she has had occasions to care for our pets for extended periods of time without supervision. We never have to worry about whether or not she does a good job with our dogs. She spends time playing with them and walking them. We have a long haired dog with a thick undercoat. She has spent much time patiently brushing our dog. She also has experience in administering medication to dogs. I hope this gives you an idea of experience and love for animals.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very open to whatever you feel comfortable with in terms of care for your pet. I know some owners might wish for me to strictly take their dogs outside on a leash for example if they don't have a fenced in yard, or there might be certain routines you'd like me to follow in terms of treats, toys, bathroom schedules, etc. I want to do my best to tailor care for you and your dog's needs.

Information Amanda K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know ahead of time if your dog has any specific phobias that I should be aware of or if anything specific makes them uncomfortable. I also think it's important to be aware of any specific allergies and your pet's medical history as well.

A typical day

In terms of fun activities, I can bring tennis balls, soccer balls, and frisbees to play with! I know some parks around as well as the Greenway where I can take the dogs for walks! I also know some fun hiking trails around I'd love to walk with the dogs on if they're more active and would enjoy that!

Availability

I'm currently on a break from school until August, so I'm pretty flexible with time during the day! I'm more of a morning person which I think can be helpful as well when it comes to dog walking, for I can be available in the early mornings in addition to the evenings when it's a bit cooler outside.
