Reliable, Loving Pet Care
Pet care experience
I have had pets my entire life and absolutely love dogs and cats. I know pets are part of the family and treat each baby as if they were my own. I always include photos and details of our time together as I know how hard it is to be away from them. In addition to basic pet care, I am also knowledgeable in basic training commands (sit, lay down, high five, etc) and have experience caring for elderly pets.
Reviews
Amanda took great care of our girl all day! Her pup teddy is so sweet and they played around in the back yard during her visit. Amanda sent lots of updates with cute pictures of the pups and listened carefully to our instructions. We knew our girl was in good hands. We came back to a very happy dog! Thank you Amanda!
Amanda did a fantastic job, if we ever need someone to watch our dog again she will be our first call!
Amanda went above and beyond when watching Poppy! She not only administered Poppy's medications, but also drove to our vet to pick up a new prescription. I'm grateful to Amanda for taking such good care.
Amanda was great and I felt so good leaving Teddy with her! Sent lots of pictures and updates on my pup during his stay! Will definitely be using her again when I’m in the area!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and my office is right by the back door, so I usually have furry friends spend time with me during the workday either cuddling up with me while I work and playing in the backyard (weather permitting). If I am caring for pets in your home, I handle the biological needs of your pet first (potty, feeding, litter box, etc) after a quick greeting and then I like to spend time with your pet on their own terms. Some pets like cuddles and playtime and others want a little space, so I will patiently sit with them (I'm lookin at you, cats!)
Home
Information Amanda P. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any sensitivities, preferred activities, or activities/behaviors that make them uncomfortable. Please also let me know if your dog needs special considerations, such as avoiding other pets while on walks or if they have a special item.
A typical day
Dogs under my care are sure to get a ton of attention! I love going for walks, playing fetch, teaching new commands, and of course, giving lots of cuddles! If you have a special request, please let me know.

I work from home Wednesday-Friday (sometimes more often), so I am always happy for some furry friends to join me! I am a homebody, so I am available most weekends as well.
