Amanda can care for
Availability
While I do have a full-time job, I work Monday-Friday from 9am to 6pm but have an hour lunch at 1 when I come home to let dogs out and play for the hour. Then my husband is home 2 hours later, so we are not gone for more than 4 hours at a time during the week.

About Amanda K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a large house with a big backyard. The yard is not currently fenced but we do plan on fencing it this summer. Dogs get taken outside to potty on leash every 1-4 hrs depending on age and needs. Animals are able to roam the house as they please unless I am out of the house or at night, then they will be expected to be in a crate while unsupervised. This is for their safety as well as the safety of my home. Animals have unlimited access to water and only have access to food/treats provided by owners. I have a very strict no "sharing" policy when it comes to food and treats. I'm also happy to follow feeding and medication schedules, do essential grooming tasks, and even keep training practices if applicable (with the exception of e-collar and prong collar training).
Information Amanda K. would like to know about your pet
ALL BREEDS WELCOME! I'd like to know about specific feeding routines and portions, medical issues that require special care, sensitive or painful areas or triggers of aggression, and most importantly, what makes them HAPPY! What toy does your dog ADORE, where is their "spot", and what is their favorite treat or place to go?
A typical day
While hanging out with me, a dog can enjoy car rides as I have seatbelts for almost all sizes of dogs. We can go to the park, the lake, the pet store, or a nearby field for some fun and exercise. I also love playing and teaching tricks as a busy mind is a happy mind for a dog. I can give baths and groom with little to no fuss as I make it fun for the both of us; toys and belly rubs and treats usually do the trick along with a positive attitude. I also have some pets of my own (3 cats and a dog) that would LOVE a play date!

Pet care you can count on!
Pet care experience
When your animals board with me, they will get top notch care and compassion throughout their stay. My home is designed to accommodate all breeds, sizes, and need levels of animals. I have cared for puppies and seniors, dogs with mobility issues and injuries, special needs and medical requirements. I can do it all! At my home your dog will be able to feel at home. I only use crates for when I'm out of the house or during the night, otherwise your pet is free to roam and mingle as much as they please! I also send regular updates and pictures so you can be sure your loved one is doing well!
Reviews
Amanda was amazing to work due to needing to find a sitter for our cat when bug bombing our house. Will definitely be reaching out again when any more needs arise! Thanks Amanda!
Amanda was so kind to watch my dog last minute after another sitter fell through. She gave a daily update and my dog played hard with her dog so it worked out great!
Amanda was great with our dog! Our pup played a lot while we were away and came back happy and tired. Amanda was easy to communicate with and kept us up to date on our pup too.
Amanda sent me regular pictures and updates throughout the day. We came here from Washington to go to Silverwood, when we realized they didn’t allow dogs I had to scramble to find a doggy daycare. I stumbled across Amanda and she did amazing with my 4 month old French bulldog. I will be returning to her when we come back to visit.
