Pet care experience
Hello 👋🏻 My name is Amanda! I've grown up with animals my entire life. Dog or cat - I will treat your pet like they’re my own! I'm a long-time animal activist who has volunteered with different shelter and rescue organizations over the past few years. I regularly foster and offer animal transport services for the local shelter. I love spending time with animals and giving them the attention they need and deserve! I have two cats of my own and have had dogs my entire life - I am very educated on temperaments of both animals. Expect constant pet pics, and updates from me while you are away - I’ll make sure to give you piece of mind that you’re baby is in good hands! And for cat owners - I have owned and fostered cats my entire life, and I’m very in tune to their diverse personalities and mannerisms. I would love to take care of your cat! I work a 9-5, but I am happy to check in on your pets before or after work. I’m available most weekends, and only have two cats at home currently, so plenty of time to give your furball love and attention! Note: there will be a 20% surcharge on any requests more than 10 miles away from my residence in Oak Lawn to account for travel costs. This will be calculated after the booking request is made. Safety is my number one priority. Having pets of my own my entire life, I know how quickly a dog can slip out of a leash, or a cat can slip out the door if you’re not paying attention. I promise to treat your pets with the care and attention that I would my own animals. *NOTE: I require all dogs to have a meet and greet prior to booking to assure my own safety, and your pets safety. For this reason, I do not take same-day bookings for dogs, but assess cats on a case by case basis.
Reviews
Amanda was fantastic! Super professional, communicative, and sweet. Our cat Hendricks warmed right up to her, and he can't wait to see her again :)
Amanda is so sweet! Our cat is very shy and can take a little while to warm up to people but totally loved her in a few days. She gave us great updates and was so caring every step of the way! We are so grateful!
Amanda was amazing! She took awesome photos of our cats, which we loved seeing everyday that we were away. Our 3 cats loved her and got lots of play and attention each visit. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friend!
Amanda is the best!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my number one priority. Meet and greets are required for all dogs prior to visits - dogs react best to smells the recognize! Please let me know any potential safe concerns you have about your animal prior to my visit.
Information Amanda M. would like to know about your pet
Mannerisms around other dogs / animals, feeding preferences (can they have treats??). How do you normally react when they react? Do they get tired easily? What are some of their favorite toys/activities? As for cats - do they like pets or would they rather be left alone? Do they like to play?
A typical day
I love walking the Katy Trail. Plenty of squirrel watching, and room to jog if your dog enjoys that! Give me some treats as well, and I can work on basic commands with your pup. As for cats - I know they all have different personalities. I'm happy to play with them, sit with them, or simply feed them and let them be! I also have experience medicating cats - I am comfortable with pills, liquid meds, or shots.
