Availability

I do currently work full time but I work from home usually Monday and Fridays. I would be able to walk dogs during this time or do drop in visits. Whilst i am working from home i would still provide ample attention to your pet, and provide regular toilet breaks and play breaks. Weekends I would be free all day and happy to walk dogs, pet sit/ board/ day care or drop in visit. Tues- Thurs I would typically only be available in the evenings after 7pm which would be more ideal for walks or drop ins visits.

Information Amanda M. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care for your pet, please let me know any important details in advance, such as: Daily routine: Feeding schedule, walk preferences, and sleeping arrangements. Behavioral traits: Any fears, triggers, or habits I should be aware of (e.g., lead pulling, separation anxiety, or nervousness around other dogs). Medical needs: Allergies, medications, past injuries, or special dietary requirements. Social preferences: How they react to other pets, new people, or different environments.

A typical day

A day with your pet is all about keeping them happy. Mornings would start with their breakfast and some cuddle or play time with their favourite toys. Following this we might go on a walk depending on your pets needs, or they can show me what tricks they know, with rewards of course. Througout the day, I'd give them plenty of love and attention or space/ rest when they need it. We might end the day on another walk, again depending on your pets requirements, walks would be either around the streets or through local parks. Dinner and snuggles infront of the tv to end the day.

Pet care experience

I’ve been a dedicated pet owner for 4 years, caring for my own two wonderful dogs, who I sadly don't live with anymore since I recently moved from my family home. Through them, I’ve gained hands-on experience in daily care, training, exercise, and understanding pet behavior. I’m familiar with everything from feeding routines and long walks to managing different temperaments and ensuring pets feel safe and loved. Because I know how much our pets mean to us, I treat every dog as if they were my own -providing patient, attentive, and loving care. Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or keeping up with their routine, I’m here to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable while you’re away!

Amanda has looked after our dog twice now and twice he's ran in super happy and content. Our dog actually had 2 torn pads, of which both had been bandaged up, Amanda was still happy to have him and took great care of him, kept him distracted from pulling off his bandages and even changed them in the morning. I honestly couldn't feel happier and more content leaving my dog in Amandas care and would recommend to anyone!

Lemmy had another great stay with Amanda recently. She does lots to keep him occupied and he always comes back fit and healthy. Thanks again, Amanda!

Amanda was fantastic. Good communication and very friendly. Our dog seemed totally at ease at her house which was so reassuring. I really get nervous leaving our dog, and I felt super comfortable leaving him, and knew he was in safe and loving hands. I'd love to have Amanda look after our dog again and really would recommend her to anyone!

Amanda has a great understanding of dogs and we knew immediately that our little pup would be in safe hands. She is great to communicate with and so kind. Thank you!
