Acreage with dog playmates!

Pet care experience

I have grown up with animals my entire life. I have worked at a veterinary clinic and taken care of my own and friends animals. My husband and I own a ranch style house on 2.5 acres, with a fenced in area, which my dogs love to run around in! We also have free ranging chickens and barn cats. I come home from work over lunch to take the dogs for a potty break during regular work days and we are home on the weekends. We fostered dogs for over 3 years and absolutely love caring for all types of dogs, big and small! I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs recovering from surgery. My big dogs have arthritis and joint issues, and my house has mostly carpet and few stairs to accommodate similar issues. I would love to care for your animals! Let me know if you have any questions!

Another great stay! Amanda treats our Great Dane Saturn as one of her own! It’s great having someone familiar and comfortable with big dogs!

Amanda had great communication with us each day we were gone, and we could tell our dog had a great time with her. If I ever need to board my dog again, I'll definitely hope she's available!

Wonderful!!! Amanda was great to work with, she was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Her property is perfect for dog play. She sent at least two updates with pictures every day. I know our pups were well cared for and received lots of loving! Highly recommend!

Our pups loved their stay with Amanda and made themselves right at home! We loved seeing updates during their stay.

Information Amanda J. would like to know about your pet

Before dog sitting, I like to know about your dog's routine. I want to make them as comfortable as possible while you are away. Since there are other dogs in the home, I also like to know of any behavioral issues, such as resource/food guarding or other behaviors. Also, I want to know of any food allergies or diet restrictions. All pets must be current on their rabies and distemper vaccines. All dogs must be current on their kennel cough (bordetella) vaccine.

A typical day

We like to play with toys in the backyard and sniff around the acreage. I also have some dog puzzles to keep your dog mentally active, if the weather is not cooperating.
