I have also been trained to care and handle other exotics such as snakes, lizards, and also guinea pigs, mice, gerbils, etc. if you need someone when you're gone, I'd love to help! I love animals of all kinds and would love to spend my time with your animal!

Amanda is an amazing dog sitter. My wife and I loved her and were VERY happy with her work and attitude. Thank you Amanda for doing such an amazing job! She is highly recommended!

Amanda was the best dog walker/sitter ever!!! She is very knowledgeable about animals and she was sooooo loving towards our dog, Shawnee! Unfortunately, due to some changes in schedules, we our no longer blessed with her service. We (and especially, Shawnee) miss her greatly

Amanda was great with our dog..in fact, our dog cried a few days after since she missed her so much! She was great at keeping us updated daily and walking our dog regularly. Cannot wait to call on her again! Highly recommend Amanda!

Amanda was a very caring person for our dog in our new home. She kept us updated with pictures and positive comments. This was our first experience leaving our dog in the care of an "unknown" and she seemed very happy with Amanda. Looking forward to our next dog sitting adventure with her!!

Information Amanda L. would like to know about your pet

Are there any behavioral problems I should know about, such as biting, nipping, house trained etc? are there certain areas your animal does not like to be touched ( some dogs hate to have their feet touched etc ). does your animal need to have medications administered? are they prone to running off or any other issues i should know about?

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog For walks I can give 20 min , for play time i can give an hour. each visit. Cleaning litter boxes and feeding animals i would give between 10 & 20 min depending on the number of animals and tasks that you ask of me. Extra house-sitting services I have no problem bringing in mail and I love plants so I have no issue watering them for you! Also, if you would like to have your dog taken to the local dog park i would love to do that as well!
