Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Amanda and I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby(s)! I can’t even remember my first memory of a dog because they have just always been in my life. My family always had a zoo of animals in the home, not just dogs, cats and birds, and due to this, I have experience caring for all types of pets from a young age. I first started pet sitting for friends and family and then word about my services kept spreading—I now find myself in full demand! I use my diverse background with animals to first get a read on what your pup enjoys, then tailor my care to their needs. Upon first meeting, I will take my time and let them make the first move when getting to know me. As long as it takes for him/her to warm up to me, I don’t mind! If your dog requires medication or extra special attention, just let me know and I will customize a care plan just for them, so we both feel confident with my services. Please note that I do not charge any extra fee for administering medication or vitamins. I enjoy feedback from my clients and never give treats or travel far from the home without approval first. You can be sure I will communicate clearly with you to make sure we are on the same page and your pet is treated well while you are away. Send me a message and let’s get started!
Reviews
Amanda did a great job. Very informative on how our kids were doing each day and loved the pics.
Amanda is great! Very accommodating with my requests, and Finn was so excited to see her!
Amanda is wonderful! This is the second time she’s house sat for us and our dog, Finn, and she has been amazing both times. Finn immediately remembered her from her visit almost two years ago and went in for pets right away (and since he is usually a little nervous, speaks highly of Amanda’s way with animals). She brought in packages unprompted, sent updates and photos as requested, and the house looked great when we came home. Thank you so much, Amanda!
Amanda is an excellent communicator. She took care of all the details I requested, and she sent me pictures every day.

Safety, trust & environment
I try to keep to schedules that are close to what the pets are used to. If we walk I try to make sure the walks are as long or short as they would normally be if you were home. I don't have people over as pets don't always react the same when meeting new people and their parents are not home. I have no problem with getting up early to give pets medication. When the weather is nice and if you have a backyard I enjoy going out and spending time outside with your pets playing or just enjoying the sun. If there your pet happens to be an accident I do everything I can to make it look like it very happened. I am very conscious of pets when leaving the home. If they are allowed to be out and about I make sure that they cannot sneak by me so they can run in the neighborhood.
Information Amanda M. would like to know about your pet
I enjoy working with all types of dogs and do not have specific breed preferences! Just send me a note about what you’re looking for and if your pup has any triggers or restrictions. It is important for me to know how long your pups can be left alone, if they take any medications or supplements, and if they have storm anxiety.
A typical day
Walks around the neighborhood are great but with your permission. We might also venture out on a hike if you’re up for it! Throwing the ball in the backyard is always a go-to favorite as well.

Availability
I am going to school to get my master's and have classes this coming Spring 23 semester; my classes are online. I also work mornings Mon - Fri at a preschool during the school year. This leads me to be away from the home for anywhere from 6 to 8 hours with travel (8am - 2/4pm) depending on the day. I also volunteer at my church. I help with the youth group on Wed nights and attend church regularly Sunday mornings. In the future, I can be away from home for up to about 9 hours as can have in-person classes after work that are not over till 4pm. Please be sure to check my calender to see when I am available.
