I am home most of the hours any pups are here. I teach Early Morning Yoga classes at a dojo 3 mins from my home, sometimes I leave for Rover drop-in/walks but for the most part I’m with the pets. I also have cameras in dog lounge and home so I can check in when I’m gone. Animals are separated into groups when I leave. I also have my own dog sitter that sits w pups if I have to leave for anything over 3 hours which isn’t the norm. The pups are my loves and my livelihood. I will be here.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in yard, we have lots of playtime out back. Everyone gets at least 1 walk (weather permitting) around my neighborhood loop, plenty of dog play space in my home between my dog lounge downstairs and upstairs areas, lots of toys, snack time and lots of attention. If you dog won’t eat , I have food puzzles that help with this.

Information Amanda M. would like to know about your pet

The dog has to be good with other dogs. Any medication the dog is on. I would like the vet info and a local contact number. Your dog must sleep through the night in my room/bed , or if owner brings crate or be able to sleep in their own room without crying all night. They can have a few chances, I know sleepovers are exciting but some dogs do not sleep and it’s not fair to other behaved pups. I’m very loving and understanding but there is a limit to a dog barking all night long. Please if your dog does this reconsider this home.

A typical day

Fetch,belly rubs all the things dogs love. Trails for long walks, huge yard plenty of toys. We have snack time so that everyone has some down time.

Pet care experience

I am an absolute animal lover. I have been volunteering/working with animals for years traveling and working at different animal rescues.Now I rescue cats and dogs in my own place. I also own a yoga business. The dogs rule the home. I have a private dog space downstairs also if a dog likes his peace and quiet. I had my own dog walking company Pawsitive Vibes for 3 years prior to Rover existing .I take dogs out multiple times a day. I have a big yard and plenty of trails nearby. I always give each dog/cats full attention. Hugs and kisses galore. I LOVE New furry friends.I have lots of experience with different doggie diets, ailments etc so your pet is definitely in the safest of hands. Ask me any questions you may have.

Amanda exceeded our expectations by far. She is professional, and extremely responsive. Even though she was out of the country at the time, she was more responsive than the other 6 people we reached out to on Rover. Amanda is honest, transparent and trustworthy. She let us know what her time limitations were and offered alternatives that fit our schedules perfectly. We met Amanda so our three dogs could meet her and they absolutely love her. It was reassuring to see how much affection they were giving her right upon meeting. During our trip, Amanda communicated continuously, sending pictures and updates because she knew this was the first time we had left the two young ones with anyone. We were completely at ease and assured our pups were being treated like the king and queens they think they are. We got to know Amanda a little during our initial meeting and know we have found a friend most of all.

I'm a very anxious dog mom and we typically take our dog to daycare but when our pup had a health scare and couldn't go to daycare anymore we had to find someone quickly to stop in and feed and play with him while we are at work. Amanda was absolutely amazing. She came over for a meet and greet and got along so well with our pup right away. When she came over she did everything we asked as he has a medical condition and requires special feeding. She took lots of pictures and left everything in the house tidy. She was also very understanding when our schedules would change last minute. Highly recommend 😊
