Safety, trust & environment

Extreme attention to detail! Your pet will not be out of my sight on walks or when playing in the yard. I will always be in touch to let you know how things are going through photos and text.

Information Amanda L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any fearful or aggressive behaviors your pet may have ahead of time so that I can be mindful when working with them. Do you have a little dog afraid of big dogs? A goat that doesn’t like men? A cat afraid of bikes? No problem! Let’s make a plan.

A typical day

I aim to please! Whatever your pet enjoys, that’s what we’re gonna do. Long walks, short walks, playing fetch, sitting in the grass, snuggling on the couch…you just let me know and we’ll make it happen.

Pet care experience

I love dogs. I love to walk. I'd love to walk your dog. I've worked professionally in the animal care industry for over 15 years. I challenge you to find someone more enthusiastic about scooping your dog's poop. Some of my work experience has been with Canine Companions for Independence, Mostly Monkeys Animal Sanctuary, and as a Zookeeper for many different facilities. I take pride in my work and in the safety and comfort of your pet. I live in the Rancho Bernardo area and would prefer clients that live in the surrounding areas. Currently I am available most days after 3:30pm. I can be somewhat more flexible on weekend days. I'm also available to pet sit cats and a wide variety of other animals-I specialize in hoof stock too! Goats, llama, donkey, horses…I got you covered. For pets that have additional needs, I am able to give oral and injectable medications.

Amanda has taken care of our pets on numerous occasions and she has proven to be an incredibly caring and trustworthy pet sitter. We just got back from a 10 day trip and our pets were happy, healthy and well loved. It’s clear they miss her a bit, too! I highly recommend her for all pets but especially those with special needs and requirements.

Amanda was great, she paid attention to details, did everything we asked and our dog, Willis, seemed to have a great time with her! She also sent update photos throughout the weekend which was great. It’s clear she cares for the animals she watches and enjoys spending time with them.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
