Information Amanda N. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the preferred walk and feeding times. Also, what parks they love going to. It’s important I know if they need special attention or if they are aggressive. What are their favorite toys? How are they with children and other dogs? Does your dog have any allergies? Do they prefer walking in the sun or shade? Does your dog have any medical conditions? I do not have any breed preferences. I love all types of dogs.

A typical day

We will go to dog parks, play fetch, go for long walks, have lots of playtime and bonding, do tricks, exercise, have lovely picnics. I love going to Central Park. We will cuddle. Just enjoy our time and be in the present. I love doing tricks!!

Selfless Empathetic Pet Lover

Pet care experience

Hello there pet parents, my name is Amanda! I am currently a pet sitter, and free lance babysitter. I hear you're looking for a pet sitter.. well you're just in luck. I am a New York City native, so I know how to navigate through majority of the neighborhoods. I grew up having many different dogs. A Pomeranian, American PitBull, and I currently own a kitty named Alaska. I have over 10+ years of dog experience, and 8+ years of cat experience. I also have over 9 years of experience working with children of all ages. I’ve worked with pets who have anxiety, diabetes, arthritis, and a few other conditions. Animals naturally gravitate towards me because I have a very gentle empathetic aura. I love cuddling and playing fetch. I’m all for dog parks, and long walks near the water if the client is comfortable. Animals love me because I am super affectionate, selfless, empathetic, energetic, and most importantly committed. I'm very passionate about animals, the environment & caring for kids. My dream is to open my own pet care company, and a babysitting company. Why not both! I am a non-smoker. Fun fact about me, I love 80's music. My certifications include the American Red Cross First Aid Dog and Cat course. References can be Provided. I am available to care for your pup if you are located in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Hoboken, and Jersey City. Fees may apply. Note* * Any house sitting bookings that are not overnight but end after 12:00 am will be charged an additional fee. That will cost cab fare for safety purposes. I am a freelancer, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry pets ❤️ I can provide potty breaks every 2-5 hours. I refill water bowls every day with fresh water, scoop litter every day, and I always attend to my clients specific needs. I send photos when your furry pets are eating, having fun, interacting with other doggos! Cuddles, playtime, love, and attention are a must. I’ve loved animals all my life, and your pet will know that they are loved by me. I make sure to not walk doggies near any glass, and on hot days I provide water on the go for your pups. I’m knowledgeable about asthma, arthritis in pets. I have cared for over 200 pets in New York City, and New Jersey.

Amanda was amazing watching our two boy cats, Oslo and Osaka, for the weekend! She sent so many videos and pictures to check-in, and was extremely easy to communicate with! Highly recommend!!!

Amanda was very communicative, sent a bunch of photos and videos of Gweni, and spent a lot of time with her. I was so appreciative for Amanda's flexibility and being able to drop in on Gweni with somewhat short notice! Thank you again Amanda!!

Amanda was such a great help during our latest trip. We have a senior dog and she really took good care of him. Unfortunately he had to go to the emergency vet two times late at night and Amanda never questioned taking him. She stayed with him for multiple hours at the vet and was such a great help. Thanks!
