Pet care experience

I want to love & spoil your dog(s)

I have been caring for animals since I was about 10 years old and have worked in a boarding facility caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments,and health concerns. I am comfortable, experienced & patient with senior dogs and see them as my elder too. There's so much we can learn from our senior fur-baby companions. I love to help puppies explore their environment and build confidence in their own life experience through positive reinforcement training and LOTS of love. 🩷 I am also a musician, and every time my Gretel would be anxious, I would play and she would calm down and relax. I have seen this happen with many other dogs as well.

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your fur-baby as though they were my own and will accommodate any requests within reason to ensure your pet(s) are safe, trust me and have a safe and fun environment. I love to take photos too, so I'll send all the updates & photos to ease your mind that your fur-baby is in excellent care (at your request of course).

My dog absolutely loved Amanda! She was more comfortable with her than with any stranger I’ve ever seen her meet, and it was such a relief knowing she felt safe and happy while we were gone. Animals truly seem to gravitate toward her, and she has such a natural, empathetic way with them. She even went out of her way to buy Honey a toy, which was so thoughtful and sweet. She sent tons of photos and updates, was very thorough, and took wonderful care of both Honey and our home. She even left the house cleaner than we left it. I couldn’t recommend her more and will definitely be booking with her again!

Have 2 cats, one won't come to new people for at least 3 days, he came to Amanda on the first day. They both loved her, that is for sure. They were laid back and happy when I got home. Amanda really has a sweet touch with animals.

Amanda goes above and beyond to make sure my pup gets the care and attention he needs during her visits. She is attentive to instruction and I am so grateful to have her here when I can’t be. Mahalo Amanda!

Amanda, Caring demonstrated calm and caring with my dogs. I like that she has an ability to observe behavior and therefore can share her thoughts about what the dog behaviors may mean. The communication updates were ongoing and appreciated. She cared for our house even taking the time to vacuum all the dog hairs from our floors, before we came home. I hope to have Amanda watch our dogs again in the future.

Schedule

I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I would take my dog outside nearly anytime she asked. We'd go on walks or just sit on the hill, soak up the sun, and people-watch.

Amanda can host up to 1 drop-in per day
Please ensure current vet information is added to your fur-baby's profile and let me know if any behavior concerns, medications, or anything else that is important for me to be made aware to provide the best possible care and loving supportive environment while your fur-baby stays with me. P.S. For drop-in visits: be sure to select each day and time individually—Rover doesn’t auto-fill the dates like it does for overnight stays. I’m happy to help if you’re unsure!
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.
