Pet care experience

Reliable Pet Care & Enrichment

I’ve worked with almost every breed and personality out there—from high-energy scent hounds to gentle giant breeds. Working in veterinary offices and professional animal care facilities taught me how to spot subtle health issues and behavioral changes long before most people would notice them. My goal for every drop-in visit is simple: keep your dog’s normal routine intact, make sure they feel safe and respected, and give them the right mix of physical relief and brain games so they're completely relaxed until you get home.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat your home and your pets with the exact same care I expect for my own. When I’m with your dog, safety comes first. I always double-check gear, harnesses, and gate latches before we step outside, and I use low-stress handling so your pup feels completely comfortable with me. I naturally keep a close eye on the little things—how your pet is eating, drinking, moving, and acting. If something seems even slightly off, you’ll get a direct, honest update from me right away. I will always respect your home. Doors are locked tight when I leave, entry codes and keys stay strictly private, and I’ll always leave your place clean and secure.

Amanda is so great with our cats that it's a no-brainer to go with her! Her communication is spot on, she's great with our animals, and goes above and beyond! 10/10 everytime and we appreciate the peace of mind.

Once again, Amanda rocked! She agreed to watch our fur babies with very little notice and did an amazing job! She takes such good care of our pets, communities regularly, and always ensures she sends lots of pictures. We will always check her availability before booking anyone else.

Our fur babies LOVE Amanda and we can fully trust that they're well taken care of when we're gone. She isn't just reliable, she genuinely cares about our pets and shows it with every visit and report. Highly recommend!!

Schedule

Working from home gives me a flexible schedule, so I can drop in at the times your pet is actually used to. My main goal is to keep their routine intact so they stay calm and happy while you're away. A few quick notes on my scheduling and rates: Walks (Booked as 60-Minute Visits): Getting gear on, wiping paws, feeding, and settling a dog back in takes time. To make sure your dog gets a full, unhurried walk on top of their normal care, all neighborhood walks are billed at my 60-minute rate. Late-Evening Visits (After 8:30 PM): My regular visit window ends at 8:00 PM so I can spend time with my family. If you need a drop-in at 8:30 PM or later, there is a $10 late-night fee per visit, which I'll add to the request before confirming.

To ensure a smooth, safe experience for everyone, I require a Meet & Greet prior to confirming any new bookings. This is a non-negotiable step so your pet feels completely confident with me in their space, and to make sure we are both set up for success! Prior to our meeting, please be ready to share: Typical behaviors, quirks, or known triggers/fears Exact feeding, treat, and medication routines Medical history or physical limitations Entry/exit and home access instructions Choice-Based Care & Boundaries: Animals can be unpredictable when their owners aren’t around, and their needs change from day to day—just like humans. I practice force-free, choice-based care and will never force an animal into a walk or an activity if they aren't up for it. If your pet has low energy or needs extra space on a given day, I respect those boundaries completely. Comfort, safety, and emotional well-being always come first.
