Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat parent & lover of fur babies
Hi, I'm amanda (they/ them), a full-time animal caregiver! **If my rates are a barrier to working together, I'm happy to discuss what might feel more accessible, when requested.** I'm so grateful to share my passion and caregiving experience with your furry family members. I grew up taking care of my family’s Yorkie and German Shepherd/ Golden/ Chow Chow mix and love spending time with pups of all ages and sizes. For almost a decade, I've been living with my (now senior) kitten, escher, who has also taught me all about how to be a cat person! I have experience administering subcutaneous fluids, oral medications, and caring for senior animals with specific dietary needs, urinary tract/ gastro/ digestive issues, and anxiety. I look forward to meeting and getting to know your more-than-human friends!

Safety, trust & environment
Written instructions for how to best care for and spend time with your animal friends is helpful for me, and I'll also make sure to take detailed notes when we first meet. I'm committed to keeping them as comfortable and happy as possible and will ask about their routines, preferences, and life experiences. I’m happy to provide regular text, photo, and video updates throughout our time together and will do my best to meet your preferred communication method and frequency. If my rates are a barrier to working together, I'm also happy to discuss what might feel more accessible, when requested. I do my best to be COVID responsive - I'm fully vaccinated (as of Sept. 2025) and will wear a mask any time we're indoors together.
Ratings and reviews
Amanda was reliable and patient with my cat who has a history of being distrustful of strangers. She was communicative and I greatly appreciated her help!
Our kitten had a blast with Amanda! All the pictures and communication we got while we were away really gave us peace of mind.
Amanda does a wonderful job taking care of our house and has gone above and beyond taking care of our dog. We have hired her several times and will do so again soon.
Amanda was great with our two kitties! She was communicative with updates and we really appreciated her trying various methods for one of picky eater cats. Also the house was super clean and well cared for. Thanks once again Amanda!
Amanda is a great communicator and reliable. We appreciated the walks our dog got, especially the attention during the day while we were out.
Amanda is fabulous! They came to stay with my senior dog and high maintenance cat and did a wonderful job. There was great communication and they sent fun pictures everyday.

- I’ll ask about any trauma your pet may have previously experienced and current impacts. I also like to know about any aggressive tendencies, physical injuries (historical and current), and medical needs to approach them in a way that feels as safe as possible for everyone.
